      I saw Rush at Wembley (the old one!!) in 1981 - awesome - glad you enjoyed them. :)

      I'm jealous - I didn't see them till '83! :)

  2. is just back from seeing Rush in Birmingham. Not as perfect as Manchester but still amazing!

      But what a way to get knackered. I have all of Muse's stuff, seen 'em twice and consider them "quite good!" ;)

      So jealous! Glad you had a good time :)

      Thanks! Still can't believe they didn't play New Born, though. My mate's favourite song, his first time seeing them, and that happens, lol!

  4. is listening to the new Rush CD and is very happy!!! :D

  5. is starting to worry that his Muse tickets haven't arrived yet.

      Thanks, yes they are - are they a fave? Bizarrely, though, I only need the tickets to pass them on to friends, as I can no longer attend the gig (I'm flying off to Boston that day, yay!).

    3. Brida

      Brida

      Oh, that's a shame.

      Yes, they definitely are a fave I won't be seeing live anytime soon lol.

      Well, good luck with the tics,and the Boston trip :)

      Thanks! Only three weeks to go ...

      Another good remedy is amazon. :P

      Okay, this isn't working. You're supposed to be discouraging me, lol!

  7. Just bought tickets to see Rush in Chicago in September. Excited!! Now just need to sort out flights and hotel ... :D

      Did you find the cream? (out of interest, why did you only buy five books when they have 3 for 2 on everything, or has that finished?).

    3. Karsa Orlong

      Karsa Orlong

      Yeah, it's finished. I was quite annoyed, cos I was intending to get 3 for 2 on the cream.

    4. Raven

      Raven

      You can never have enough cream.

  9. Just got 3rd row tickets to see Dream Theater at Wembley next month. Woohoo! And I don't even like them anymore. Woohoo!

      Blimey that takes me back. I remember being dragged by my mate to see them back in around '96. They were awesome and I didn't like them either!

    2. Karsa Orlong

      Karsa Orlong

      LOL! I used to love them, but not so much anymore. I've been listening to some of the older stuff, though, and some of it was great! Haven't seen them on the last couple of tours so should be interesting ...

  10. Just got tickets to see Epica in December. Missed the last tour, can't wait for this one :)

  11. Just went in Waterstones ... and didn't buy anything!! :-o

      Karsa Orlong

      Oh things appealed - but I couldn't make up my mind. So I walked out. It's the coming of the apocalypse, I'm certain.

  12. Listening to the new Rush single. Happy Steve!!!!! :D

      I've heard it too. It's excellent!

      Karsa Orlong

      Yay, good man! :)

  13. LOL, I keep telling people I have great taste but they don't agree! Been a Rush fan since I was 14 (and too young to know better ... ). Four weeks from today I'll be in Boston to see them - can't wait!

  14. LOL, I've already got all the albums, thanks - but you haven't! :)

  15. LOL, thanks Maureen - I really don't want to think about washing up liquid today. In fact, I don't ever want to do any washing up ever again ... lol!

  16. LOL, would the two of you like to be alone???

  17. Lots of our clients seem to have invited themselves to our office this morning so they can look out of the window and watch Thatcher's funeral procession go past.

    1. frankie

      frankie

      Well I sure hope you cleaned up

      good this morning!

    2. Karsa Orlong

      Karsa Orlong

      And it's gone past. Hopefully all these clients will go away now!

  18. Muse tickets have finally arrived - yay!

      [sings]And you're feeeeling goooood! ;-)

    2. Karsa Orlong

      Karsa Orlong

      LOL! Definitely, cos (ahem) time was running out ;-)

  19. Mwaah, had to cancel my holiday but - on the plus side - can now go and see Muse!

    1. Brida

      Brida

      Oooh and WL! - hope you'll enjoy the show :D

      Sorry about the holiday though.

    2. SueK

      SueK

      Yes, sorry to hear you had to cancel your hols.

    3. Karsa Orlong

      Karsa Orlong

      Thanks, it's okay though - there's always a silver lining :)

  20. My Amazon reviewer ranking is 666 today. Mwahahahahahahaha!

      .. hmmm .. I suspected as much ;)

      That explains a lot :)

      hahahahahaha!!

       

  21. My boss has nodded off at his desk, lol!

    1. poppyshake

      poppyshake

      Staple his tie to the desk!

    2. Karsa Orlong

      Karsa Orlong

      I'll do that next time, lol. His nose was nearly on the desk, actually. I thought it had gone quiet - he's usually very noisy!

  22. No, I have to admit that it hasn't achieved that. I know that if I'd really enjoyed it I would have been straight down to Waterstones on Monday to get the other two. Might be just me, though, because it has been getting very good reviews.

  23. Not Bladerunnery, more fantasy than sci-fi. Imagine Columbo with swords and sorcery, a long beard and a dirty cloak, lol. I'll make a note of that, have to come back to it (much) later. Yes, would love to have a read, hope you'll do the same at some point :-)

  24. Note to self: beware cast/character spoilers in search results when googling tv shows - why have they started putting photos with character names to the right of the search results???

    1. vodkafan

      vodkafan

      yes wikipe3dia tells you everything

    2. Karsa Orlong

      Karsa Orlong

      I'm so annoyed, picked up a spoiler just by searching for a tv show. Grrr.
