Title: Edinburgh tomorrow
Post by: Rosie on February 26, 2009, 04:25:47 PM
Hi everyone. Looking forward to tomorrow night's concert at the Queen's Hall! Last time I saw the guys was a few years back at the Renfrew Ferry - dreadful place  >:(

Does anyone know who the support act will be tomorrow night?

Hi Rosie

It'll be the same support act as the rest of this tour: Phil Cool and Ken Nicol.  They are extremely good.

I read somewhere that Mr Cool has been poorly recently. I presume he's now fit and well again?

I quite fancy it but don't think i can afford to go to edin as well as gla. Queen's hall is a great venue though.

Come to glasgow instead? Or you still working?

You obviously haven't been standing/sitting anywhere near me. My last few visits to that diabolical place were ruined by drunken and/or drugged obnoxious idiots falling all over the place and spilling drinks over people, and shouting vile insults down to the band from the balcony directly above. Never, ever again :(

I don't think I'm working. Last train back to Edinburgh is 11:30 from Queen Street so that's doable.

I'll check with the boss tomorrow night. Meal/Pint beforehand?
