Sarahlou1973

He was FAB!!! The venue was tiny - it's just a pub with a small stage and dance area. After all having a nightmare journey, we arrived just after 9.00 and found a spot right at the front of the stage, so we parked ourselves there and had a chat and a few drinks while we waited. The event was sponsored by San Miguel, so everyone had vouchers for a free pint and a half:thumb_yello:.

SS came on at 10.30 and loooked like he had just got off the sofa to come and sing a few songs to kill half an hour!! He had a baggy T-Shirt and trackie bottoms on with some lovely snazzy silver shoes! My only complaint was his new hair cut - I didn't like it. When I get some pics uploaded, you'll see what I mean!

Anyway, Sari, Me and Jems were right at the front and had our bags on the stage wedged between the speakers. SS came on and took the mike right in front of me and Sari. The only way we could have been any closer would have been if we'd sat on him (I was tempted ).

Anyway, he was on for about 1/2 hour, did a few from the album and a couple of covers - Homeless and American Boy. He was on top form, seemed to enjoy himself and not take himself too seriously and sounded great. At one point, he shook his head and covered us in Sam sweat:naughty:. It was extremely hot in there and after they had finished, I tried to grab his towel from the stage, but the officious security guard snatched it from me and threw it to the back....:thumbdown:Couldn't he see I was melting and needed to use a towel.... Never mind, he's only doing his job I suppose and probably didn't want a towel drenched with Sam sweat turning up on E-Bay!!

A great night was had and I can't wait to see him next month.

I'll try and post some pictures over the weekend.

You're so lucky, have a great time!

Thanks - I'm really looking forward to it:thumb_yello:

Just a quickie to let the little sparro-ites know that I won tics to see him tomorrow night in a pub in south London

Babs, Jemma, Sariflior are also going :punk:

I just hope he turns up....

Hope you're all OK:thumb_yello:

Happy birthday timbaland:yay:

Is it his fikifiking birthday? Eh eh??

And some wonderfully intense shots of you too:wink2:

Thankfully, none of the crowd though:thumb_yello:

Was nice to see the vid. This time last week, we were waiting patiently......

That's how it's supposed to be...Mikafy 'em when they are still young and innocent:mf_rosetinted:

Unfortunately he's neither!!

I was just impressed that Andy heard it and pointed it out to me while I was out the room....I have obviously got him well trained!

yep you going to the warm up gig for the chosen few going to last night gig, where the 'fans' know how to sing in tune, isn't that right Sarah

Yeah!!

looks like everyone has deserted sam

Not me....got ma tickets today :punk:

The full performance!

Thanks - at least they had a proper stage, not the back of a lorry like in Aylesbury:naughty: Looked like a great gig

now im stuck on level 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

 

HELP SOMEONE PLZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????

Think of a word that is spelt the same backwards as forwards....the number of letters is in the clue....

I'm stuck at level 35...I just get a mess that looks like a 5 year old has been let loose! It's the one that says .stod eht tcennoc dna pu epahS and there is a 'join the dots' underneath...

Any hints would be gratefully received - Kelzy's clue isn't helping me....sorry!

Remember what I told you?

There's a long queue forming....

I bet you did.

She did:naughty:

I had such a good time yesterday at the FR gig. Luke looked lovely ( I think not touring is agreeing with him:naughty:) and Francis and the band are bloody lovely. It was really nice to just chat with them and have a drink. Francis is so down to earth and funny and I had a fabuluex time with the MFC girls (as always)

I can't wait till their album launch:mf_rosetinted:

Remember drugs are bad

Indeed!!! We had fun, didn't we??

And, Blue & Ingie, you definitely made a good impression

And it's proof that Timbaland is producing the new album! EH!

The net is closing! I knew I didn't make up that fact about Timbaland producing Mika's next album for nothing! I often have these flashes of genius that turn out to be entirely true! Eh!

There's only one explanation.....you are a witch....

Tried to quote Babs' post, but lost it as I had to sign in again....never mind!

I echo her thoughts on yesterday.It was a lovely afternoon with great company and great music. Luke, Francis and the rest of the band were freindly and chatty afterwards. Luke looked great and so relaxed - I guess that not touring for months on end is agreeing with him...

I nearly fell off my seat when I saw that Babs had started a Timbaland thread....should have realised it wouldn't be quite as it seemed....

I too love the 'fiki fiki fiki' fingymajig!!He's a true genius....

I can see you!!

Looks like a great venue:thumb_yello:

Sometimes one of the clues for level 18 doesnt work on internet explorer.

look at the page title, can you see something red white and blue where it says level 18?

Thank you!!! I swear there was nothing there before:naughty:

Cracked it now

I feel a bit stupid....I'm stuck at Level 18.

I can't get it from the clue and when I click on the view/source to look for clues, it says something about needing firefox for this level.....Very confused....

I will notice

 

*wonders why Bjorn Again is more important than US!!! *

Of course not - it's just that it's already paid for.....I'd much rather be with you guys

I'm a muppet. I can't change my holiday dates, as I have a commitment on the 4th December (Bjorn Again:punk:!!) so if I go Tue-Tue, I'll miss it....

Never mind, I'll have to experience the party vicariously through all your reports and pictures....I'm sure once it's all in full swing, you won't even notice that I'm not there....

I've not done any work for the last hour and a half....

Thanks for the hints - I'm up to level 15 and really should go home now.

How do I get back to where I got to tomorrow??

Lucky you!!

 

I thought the end of the world was here ! blacker than black skies the this insane storm and thunder

 

Its just heading south now.. eekkkkkkkk

It didn't take long to get to us....

Fingers, toes and everything else crossed for you. I would really

LOVE it if you could be there

You will certainly not be. I guess in the end we might end up fighting about who is allowed to push your chair .

 

 

 

Investigate! You go girl!

I would love it if I were there too

I'll let you know how I get on....
