Joey's got a comp?

Fiesta a la Japan

Post by Scallywag Fri Nov 17, 2006 5:33 am

The story behind the wigs are as follows :

1.) James is secretly auditioning for "last of the Mohicans 2 " beat out Daniel Day Lewis hands down for looks and Agility on stage

2.) Jem isn't really from Manchester area but 125th and Lennox Ave NYC . Has been seen performing at "The Lennox Bar" and in Michaels on the first Monday of each month on 55th street. Rumoured that he is really Charlie Parker's nephew

3.) Philip is showing solidarity with Andrews Drum Kit Logo

4. ) Joey, well He's being Joey, comes in all colours and is good for a laugh.
Actually the only DVD's that worked on his computer were the free Teletubbies ones in his Hotel room. Watched all 8 seasons several times while in Japan. Thought it was a " learn to speak Japanese in 24 hours" instructional


Actually, The saki was to blame as the tequilla usually on the rider was not supplied so this is what happened during " FIESTA '

Take your pick
Don't believe a word I say and less of what i don't know:twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

The Pogues' festive tour hits Glasgow again in December and group member Spider Stacy, asked in the current issue of The Word magazine how they "prepare" for the Christmas gigs, replied: "Some of the band start drinking in April."
He also reveals that their teenage fans in Japan, once so quiet, had become extremely wild. "It's like there's been some mix-up with a lorry-load of blood transfusions from Glasgow and they've all wound up in Osaka and Tokyo, running round like drink-crazed football supporters."


Can you imagine?

:shock: :roll:

While I understand why the band just gives a couple of concerts a year, this is really sad that many of their followers can't get to see them live. I guess they can't be everywhere, but this is a shame to see 5 concerts in LA for example and no concert at all in other countries/states. Maybe they just go where most of their fans are? I don't know. Anyway, my fingers are still crossed to eventually see them play... one day... ;)
They did Bean Town and NY and DC this spring...

:lol: :lol: :lol: 8) A double-page spread, between 'Finbarr Saunders & His Double Entendres' and 'Roger Melly On The Telly' would be a corker.

But seriously: Congratulations to Louise and Spider on their impending Vegas nuptials. Long life and abundant happiness to you both. :)

Shane looks like he's in good form at these shows from what I've seen. How's the band feeling about it? Looks like he wasn't missing a beat from what I saw and his voice sounds better and might I be mistaken but has he lost a little weight?

I wish I had concert tickets to the San Fran shows, why don't you blokes make your arses up to Maine for a show :D I'll give you a tour of Portland.

Vegas Wedding

Post by Mike from Boston Fri Oct 13, 2006 7:27 pm

And as Spider has now taken to announcing it to all Japanese audiences, I suppose it's no longer a big secret that he and the lovely Louise will be getting married in Las Vegas on October 15th.


Congrats to Spider and Louise on their wedding. Disappointed I can't make
it to Vegas. Will they be selling their wedding photos to the British press
(like Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones)? If so, I hope there
is one of the best man in the classic Elvis white jumpsuit :D (I am pretty
sure you can't have a wedding in Vegas w/o Elvis. The Elvis at my wife's cousin wedding actually passed around autographed pictures at the reception, I think he really thought he was Elvis :?
