OT Live 8

Thanks Rob! I remember Don Airey, but not Steve Morse.

Hmm, another sad sod watching at home.

:-)

I was there (and at Glastonbury the previous weekend) and both were far better than the televised versions.

I speak from the pov of someone who taped both and therefore can make the comparison.

Ever thought there's more to life than trying to see some ageing pop star from 200 yards away?

John.

Psst, sit CLOSER.

Or, you can be like me and only go to see ageing pop stars, or young ones for that matter, 'cause you're paid to be there. :-)

Nope. I'm "Local". I don't travel with the shows but work them when they come into the area covered by my union local..

Wasn't it a tad damp at Glastonbury?

D'oh, serves me right for putting the TV at the bottom of the garden! *slaps forehead*

Didn't Rod Stewart get booed from the stage for singing 'Sailing'? ;-)

Small world. I'm a vidiot engineer. Do mainly corporates but a handful of theater gigs...

It was Glastonbury, fer goodness sake. Only the press were surprised.

:-))

Yes, but first he was cheered for singing a selection of tracks from An Old Raincoat Will Never Let You Down.

"Rob Kemp"

It is indeed. I'm the Manager/TD of a 302 seat community theatre, which means I'm the chief cook and bottle washer. I'm also a member of IATSE local 168 so I do shows in the large theatre venues, convention centre, outdoor concerts, arena shows and a little movie work, "X men" was the last movie gig. Royal Lipizzans this coming weekend in the arena. Guess my job will be to shovel the ****. :-)
