Love the joke of Martyn Ware, when Glenn says "We're going to live for a very long time !!!", and Ware says "No, Phil Oakey's leave for a very long time".

Ah ah !

Sorry to correct you, but what was actually said was this

Gregory: "We're going to live for a very long time and I think it goes on forever"
Ware: "It feels like it goes on forever"

No mention of Phil at all, and of course it's a reference to that fact that on the vinyl album the track was recorded up to and onto the runoff groove; meaning the run time of this track and the album is infinite, looping the line "For a very long time".

Glenn did say after his acoustic of Geisha Boys "Don't let Phil Oakey know I played guitar, he'll kick me out of the electronics club"

Just realised Billie Godfrey's new solo album is on Spotify:

There's a tribute night for long-time Sheffield radio DJ Dave Kilner who died last year, at Sheffield City Hall on Fri 30th April.  Acts include Heaven 17, Joe & Sav from Def Leppard (AAARRGGGGHHHH!!!), John Parr, John Culshaw and Tony Christie so far, but the organiser are talking to more Sheffield stars in the hope of increasing the line up.

I've just got a 3rd row ticket (shoot me if you like, but i'm really going to see the Leppards mainly ! )  Heres a link to the City Hall website incase anyone is interested, but i was offered crap seats on there so called the box office on the off-chance and got offered 3rd row

I was into Duran at 10, got into Leps at 15.  Go figure   If you thought that they were comedy, you may be shocked if you found out just how HUGE they were (and still are...) worldwide !

Why not go to the show and see for yourself?

I really couldn't (and that's saying something since I have seen Celine Dion!)  I'm sure they are great live but I just know it's not for me.

Great to see but why is it buried away on the edge of the daily schedules.  Surely it's worthy of a more 'prime time BBC2' slot!!

Oh excellent - will need to look out for myself on that :p

Timing doesn't bother me (I timeshift 95% of my TV these days) but it's a pity this isn't on BBC HD.

Ticket booked for the London one in November
