C'mon, you mean the queen tribute band that were there last year, surely they were the best tribute band!? Just close your eyes........and put your fingers in your ears. :shock:
I can still hear the lead singers rendition of the Freddy Mercury live aid vocal solo, ringing in my ears. It takes a long time to get over something like that. I still have painfull flashbacks!:roll:
Okay so in a (very) bored moment last night, I decided to skip thru the 'highlights' of the DVD........um well it was good to see a good selection of early Porsches :lol: Joking aside,it did look as tho all had a great weekend!!

But Ronnie's only doing offstage fluffer roles now!!!! $7.50 a throw though :shock:

I've just come back from Holland with a fully-functioning chest infection - i'm typing this from my deathlongue - so won't be thrashing down to Beetlemania this time. That willl save my ears from the Scousesounds limping off the stage (not a Beatles fan at all) but will miss the excellent atmosphere AND the sun's out ALL weekend... YIPPEE!!!

Have fun :lol:

Ooops - better qualify that statement: when i said 'not a Beatles fan at all' i actually meant that they pale into comparison with The Stones, The Who, The Wombles early 60's 'Recycler' album or the BBC singalonga Woodentops 'By a thread' (12" - NOT the import....)

:wink:

Point a camera at me and you'll have to answer to JnrBootsy aka The Monkcesca.

Be afraid, be very afraid - she protects her Daddy and is a viscious young lady :evil:

A recent picture of her lurking in her lair :lol:

Bless :P

Although I have got a strange kinda visual thing going, got a cross between Loony Tunes, 007 & a time tunnel thing. Strange lair.

Just to confirm we're not gonna make Bea(e)tlemania as Sonja is Strolling the Race for Life in Guildford & I am the support (as in carry, most probably) vehicle. Bum.

Great news Craig, drop BB a line to confirm your ticket and I'll keep you a space on the stand for your car.

You can take the car back in the evenings to where you are camped.

See you there!
