'Interesting' gig last night... photos inside.

Nice one WoT.
As a kid in the early 70's watching the likes of Sabbath, Heap,Zepp, Purple, Lindisfarne, 10cc etc on that stage, always dreamed of playing it.
Never did, although played Middlesbrough Town Hall, Hartlepool Town Hall amongst many other gigs.

Power to you for just gracing that mystical stage.
All the best mate,
Karl.

I'm surprised that after standing behind that line-up that your Compact didn't become a Big One

Mind you, i dont think it was very nice them making you stand on a box all night. We're you on the naughty step or something?

Cheers, Karl! It's my third time on there but every time it feels like the first!

Here's the view from my naughty step...

Tell me you weren't tempted to step up to that mic and shout "Good evening Newcastle"!

No.. I managed to resist it, but I did get to shout 'Whey aye, man!' over and over again.

Very nice indeed, and only slightly spoiled by the fact that they all probably sound like Jimmy Nail when they talk.

Oh God help us.

(I actually like to hear a nice regional accent on a woman, and the Geordie accent is one of my favourites).

[karlfer]

Ye Gods, just scared mesel (sorry, my self).
Had a flashback, stairs, half way up from groundfloor, on the landing.
Fire extinguisher set off at Captain Beefheart gig. Accident, honest.
City Hall, heartbreaking yet joyous site for an exile.

Cheers WoT, turned a sh***y Monday round
Karl.

Great stuff!
With all the totty distractions hardly surprising that nobody noticed you had Michael McDonald depping on keys.....

+1...half the reason I moved here. The best 'accents' always seem to surprise me on women who are incredibly intelligent and/or have a very high profile position in a company, then as soon as they speak, you suddenly realise all is well, and you can have a normal conversation with them.

Geordie or Scouse accents on nice ladies are the best!

[Musicman20]

PS - WOT - Do you need me, WH and Conan to be your roadies? I dont care what I carry as long as I can come to the gig!

[ogrimark]

Jesus, super jelous now.....when can i get dancing sluts on stage with me. You know you have made it when you have a plethora of dancing sluts
did you not offer to defluff the costumes for them?

[wateroftyne]

'Dancing sluts'. ha ha. You crual man.

'Bring on the dancing sluts!'

Did I mention that we had to force ourselves to watch them rehearse for an hour in the green room? Nightmare.

[wateroftyne]

By the way, I recorded part of the rehearsal. I thought you might like to listen to how well the TC head fits in the mix.

[Longmayyourun]

i think that's what you call a lovely tight bottom end.........

(spelling edit - sorry, I was a bit distracted)

Very, very nice WoT! That must have been a most pleasant show for you

I had a gig recently where I shared a dressing room and stage with this lady. She's an absolute diamond.

She looks like Marnie Scarlette, with whom we recently played the Halloween Horrorfest. Very clever with balloons ....
