Title: After Gig Gathering - Manchester
Post by: LCG on October 01, 2016, 06:09:07 PM

Evening

I've been to see those lovely people at Grand Central in Manchester today. It's all systems go for November 11th!

Usual arrangements apply 😀

Cool!  Grand Central is certainly a fine place.  My Manchester local, if you can count a place 40 miles or so away from my home as a 'local'...

Not sure if I can do Manchester, but if I do so, I shall be there!

That's great news, and many thanks once again to LCG for organising.

Sorry I've been away for a while BTW, you know how it is with one thing and another plus another change of jobs. Great to be back though, and with the band sounding as brilliant as ever. Love the new album. Also hoping all is well with you Master Ray.

All the best,
Johnny

Hey Shush.  Might now be able to do Manchester, but it'll be a non-stopover with my mate driving (and more importantly driving us back straight after the gig) so might see you at the gig or might not.  No matter, Nottingham, for me, is deffo 'Thunderbirds Are Go!'!

Enjoy the after show at GC though, it is a great down and dirty rock joint, the likes of which you rarely see nowadays...  :-\

The bouncer wouldn't let me as he said no track suit bottoms ! Why was there a bouncer on the door ?

Sorry to hear that - obviously most pubs and bars in Manchester have bouncers on a Friday night - that was a Grand Central arrangement as opposed to mine.
