Looking back it really was p*** poor! "007 was much better though, so keep the head of steam going in 2008! (and maybe this thread as well)

Thank, Jim, for you notice but:

On my behalf I can add - better they let off steam here than lay an ambush with baseball bat somewhere in the dark alley ;)

Moderator - Is it possible to lock this thread so it fades into the forum? I do not see the point in debating one show that was below the normal superb standard over three months after it took place.

Regards,
Jim (who only wrote this after checking it will be back to the position it is now very shortly due to postings about the new US shows)

Every band has the odd gig where it doesn't go right. Ones of Shanes best mates had just died, which might have put him off somewhat.

Not all reviews make the overnight editions.


I thought this issue was dead and buried. Unfortunatley it takes some longer to gauge an opinion. And it was stupid to leave after four numbers, you are to blame for the waste. It was not the greatest show, but was still enjoyable, leave after four numbers, what a 'FUC****' stupid thing to do.
