I only got it on Friday night after getting into bed, I'll have to see how it develops. It's only a throat cold at the moment. Not sure if it's likely to spread. Ooh, the drama. |

things could be worse... MySpace says bravecaptain is dead... although I don't know if that'll affect his ability to play next Sunday. |

if it's one of those laptop shows, then it probably doesn't. _________________

well, someone with a beard and a big hat could pretend to be martin, and then just click play on his laptop. _________________

you don't mean like this:
So, you're a reclusive but legendary dance act. You decide to do a few gigs. Your agent contacts the big European festivals and tells them you are prepared to do three dates only - to the highest bidders. Bidding reaches 300,000 euros, so you agree. And then your agent rings more festivals and says - ok, you'll do ten dates only, at 300k a pop. You then do these festivals dressed as robots. Except, you don't even bother going on stage for every gig, you get two replacements to work the pre-programmed synths etc.
Congratulations - you are Daft Punk!

just as well he's in Finland. If he was at the gig, I'd deck him for that comment, if I were you.

Morning Martin, or anyone else in the know...
Any idea what time the gig starts / finishes?
Cheers

I am into this Big hat/beard doppleganger thing I would like to do it if Martin would rather watch himself from the bar. _________________ we spent a lot of time trying to make our guitars sound like trumpets...then someone told us we could actually use real trumpets |

Good luck with the gig. Hope it's a proper shindig folks! And best of luck in the future martin!! Whether it be electronica, production, novel writing or any other rock n' roll, I'm sure it will bring pleasure to you and many others.. _________________ www.myspace.com/storkboychoons
