  • Agree, Carpy has summed it up, as has everyone else posting about the amazing MIF gig's.

    I went to the first night only, but oh, what a night, day, evening, everything.
    Alison, Will, incredible music, yet again completely different from anything before and I love the direction.
    Keith, I think, summed up the whole ambiance and feeling to the new material. They are definite growers too and will sustain many 10's of listens, each time offering up something you missed the listen before.
    Davide, Angie, Charlie, Alex and new drummer guy (he was good, very good), the string orchestra and choir, all made it a brilliant gig, one of the very best yet (7th Tree at the Sage was amazing, amaxingly amazing) musically.
    However, I can honestly say the overall experience was by far the very best I have ever had at any gig.
    The reason being......
    ALL of you, and some who don't dwell here (Spike)

    Thank you.

  • Hmm. Wonder if there's anyone out there with any way of hearing 'clay'...... *goes on about it forever*

    In return, I can always offer booze / laughs / a place to stay! (ok, that last one is usually under discussion before hand) This lot will vouch for me! I'm shit with technology, but pretty generous! ;)

    Clay.
  • Oh god. That winky face made that all come across in quite an unsavoury way....
    I'm gonna stop now... It's late and I'm still all emotional (/ have had a couple of drinks)
  • :| this one winks to. But isn't very suitable either.

  • /:) I meant this one. Ffs this board.
  • Hey MODS, can we discuss the 'little faces' situation... What are they called?! One made me appear a bit hooker-ish and the others just look cross.......

Howdy, Stranger!
