UT - the reason I don't really use this message board any more is, for me, the purpose of the board was to meet like minded people whom I can share a love of a great band with. Now, I've found those people and don't really need the bo…

How do you feel today?
The start of a new Dr Who era must have helped that mood no doubt Carpy. How did you find Mr Capaldi?

(i only really post when there's an upcoming gig) ... Where as everyone has access to twitter/facebook/mailing lists etc. I'm curious Sally. Why do you very rarely post here anymore? This is the Goldfrapp fan forum. A place they have se…

Ah, the age old division of the haves and have nots. I would imagine this was interpreted as an inner 'clique' ? A slight side bar HJ. The old board ( I did visit once or twice) had a page with a list on it of all the members. If I read it…

It's been interesting reading and talking to you about your experiences as a Toyah fan UT, but I feel I have to disagree with you a little.. I AM in agreement with you that any band should value its core fan base, and I'm sure that most do…

What are you listening to now?
Brighton Rock - Queen, on 6 music. My God, takes me back. I bought the album, Sheer Heart Attack, when it first came out and played it at extremely loud volumes in my bedroom with my first stereo record player. Soo loud, I had the window open and th…

Added you too now, UT. People can specify their year-of-birth, but it's optional. Just put 'still young enough for Rock n Roll, too ornery to die'! There are enough clues in my posts if anyone is interested, just wonder why you woul…

'Dirty Glam Stomp' (Train). Like it ! And they are right about the seated audience. How many times had that been wrong this tour ?

Nice letter! A bunch of us on here had personal Christmas cards from Alison and Will. Good to hear Elliot. It shows if nothing else that Alison and Will appreciate the people who are, in essence, their best customers! Every member of the Toyah fan…

Sally I notice you also tactfully avoided my question of how you know, not what you know. Fully understand the need to reach a mass audience. I myself am fairly new to this board and received the email updates long before I joined the board. Howeve…

Me too Elliot. We can never have too many Frappers. I still have all my invites left, as does Appy I assume.

We all have birthdays HJ, even the undead. 2nd December. Old enough to remember doing it and not so old that I have forgotten that I want to do it again! :D

If you couldn’t make it, we have some very exciting live news coming next Tuesday at 9am. Make sure to subscribe. If this is just a DVD release, then the wording is poor. (Written by management?). A DVD release of a live show should have been �…

I saw David posted a photo of the running order from Thursday's gig on Facebook. Here is a scan of mine. It was bedlam at the stage following the house lights going up; everyone trying to get a copy from the stage. I went to the main console a…

What`s the last film you watched ?
Not last watched. Watching it now. Saturday Night Fever. I went to the cinema to see this on its original release with a group of friends. It has a great, almost continuous soundtrack. I also remember all the discos (yes, discos, not clubs) we went …

I really can't say anything at all. Other than, there will always be disappointed people when it comes to these important announcements. I do know what it is but have been sworn to absolute secrecy (i can't begin to tell you how difficult …

Great! Thanks for labelling who's who, guys. And yeah, all in agreement (LittleBird is AKA Kate). I'll put the labels on my original pics/post. Oh, and cracking Alison picture! :-) And Laura's board name is ?

I had just got Kat's pics onto Flickr as well but the tiny image of photo 1 seems to have come up trumps despite this. All round good job. This is one of Alison she took as well, so not me, Ms KatRobin.

Ok....(sighs wearily....). Having had no success (still hoping that UT might come good for me!?), all I can suggest is that any of the good people who gathered at The Old Brewery and would like to see the pics I took of you (there were only 2), mayb…

A Lumix (Panasonic) DMC-TZ60. It replaces an earlier Lumix and is, IMHO, the canines cohunes of a pocket camera. It has an 18Mb sensor, a 30x zoom capability, will shoot in RAW format and has a small electronic viewfinder which you can look through …

Seventh Tardis - The Doctor Who thread
We watched it and enjoyed it. It is always good to get in at the basement level with a new Doctor. Does anyone else lament the passing of Torchwood? I often find the need for Dr Who to doff its cap in the direction if a younger audience annoying and…

OK. All loaded to Flickr. 50 in total, the biggest album I have done from a Goldfrapp gig. I will post a link to the others tomorrow but time for bed. Nighty night ! Goldfrapp at the Old Royal Naval College

Hey Frappaholics. Now snailband has delivered, I can start the still upload to Flickr. Here are three more. Once all are on, I will put into an album and post a link. A lot are Alison with Charlie in the background, as that was our view initially. …

Yay! Snailband has come through. Below is a vid of Train from Thursday night, so this is when we all stormed the front and I got a better angle, and I was standing. Just checked and this makes 12 Goldfrapp vids on Mrs UT's channel. No Muse cu…

Wow, the quality is fantastic! Thanks for bringing back such great memories. One of my favourite songs too. Thanks for the comment. To be honest, I find vids easier at a standing gig as being over 6 foot, I usually get a good view; nothing that pick…

Also, this Little Bird vid shows that the end section ( what Pink Floyd would have called 'a happening' (man), is a lot heavier than it normally was with Angie. Some of the synth sounds are very percussive and mechanical sounding. Hazel br…
