I met Spider.

Post Fri Mar 05, 2004 5:21 pm

During a small boring Festival in Sweden sometime in 1995 before the Pogue Mahone Album came out. I was quite drunk at the time and even in my drunken state i noticed that Spider was really drunk. Spider lay on the stage floor and sang Fiesta, he had not brought his wistles so when they played Repeal...
Well anyway after the gig he came down to the crowed and shook hands and some girls kissed him, i shook his hand and he signed my t-shirt. I asked him if they were to release any new stuff, but i didn't really understand what he said. But it was great to meet him in person.

Spider and the Wisemen

Post Mon Aug 09, 2004 8:10 am

In March 2000, i worked for a wisemen cocert in Disneyland. Spuidie and Darryl was there. Darryl is very shy, but Spidie is great, his girlfriend Louisa also. Spider is an arsenal fan.

I recently met Spider after a show he did here in Frisco. I think i'm going to go and catch him again tonight in Fairfax. He was very friendly and signed stuff for me. Lars from Rancid was hanging out too.

I Met Spider back in 1991, I was in Dublin on holiday and went to see The Dubliners. Spider was special guest and I waited outside the stage door for him. After about half an hour he came out and I had my photograph taken with him.

The camera I had was on it's last legs, the photo with Spider was actually one of the few things that came out.

My problem at the moment is no scanner.

If anyone nearby can help me, then that would be great
