yep, ticket in hand, hotel booked. in the tap for an hour before and after. looking forward to another great night.

You can get physical tickets, like paper / cardboard ones, anymore?  I miss those days, mainly because I sometimes struggle to figure out how to download them or retrieve them from that annoying rectangle I call a Smartphone... I think it's called 'getting old'...  :-[

(OK, I appreciate it was a metaphor....  ;) )

Oh dear. It's usually his knees that are the problem, not his elbows. Let's hope he is OK.

I read that Michael was not on drums in Vauréal. Is it confirmed? Is he OK with his elbows?

Any update?  C'mon, Shush, surely you and your good lady are turning up?  Is there gonna be a pre-gig meet or an aftershow?  Seems like it's another hot and sweaty sold out show.

Although I have to say... the last couple of NMA shows I've attended have been a little odd in terms of recognizing old faces.  I'm not talking about people I know through this fine Forum, more so the people I don't know but who I have seen time and time again in what must be, for me, over a hundred NMA gigs over the decades.  Is it just that some of the old fans are just not coming along anymore, they're just a bit too old and ache-y to manage it anymore?

Whatever... I look forward to endlessly queueing up in the freezing cold and usually pouring rain that a gig at Rockers in December will doubtlessly entail and, when we all finally get into the venue, the whole place smells like a wet dog...   ;)  :D

I'll be there, but I don't actually know anybody off the forum in real life. Possibly because I'm an antisocial git and don't go drinking before/after. But I'll be there.

45 years - woah...HAPPY ANNIVERSARY indeed - and hoping for many more.

But yeah, how time flies! It's a bit scary.  ;)

But no doubt when I'm 56 (or 70 like Justin S in 2026!) I'll perhaps regret not being 47 anymore ha ha! As we say in France: "La vieillesse est un naufrage" ("Old age is a shipwreck")!
;D Well, yeah - over here (in Germany) we say that, if you're over 45 and don't have any aches and pains, you're dead. I used to laugh about that - now that I'm turning 57 in a couple of months, I am certainly not laughing anymore.  :D

Although...yeah...I am...it's alright, I guess, because it's ok, I am grateful to still be alive and fit enough to still do stuff I enjoy, like going to shows, even though it get tougher.

Let's hope we all get to see many more shows!
