This is now my wallpaper. Nice to meet you by the way. I thought you handled a strange bloke approaching you in the toilet very well, under the circumstances.
Nice one, and good to meet you, and Ed, Lucy, DC and all the "new faces"

You too mate. Do you have the photo that me and you were in in the pub? Only my pile of shite Olympus camera died before i got there so im trying to salvage as many as i can!
Loads of great photos, guys; also, loads of faces that are instantly familiar but I'm more likely to cure cancer this afternoon than remember more than a few names!!! "Hi" to everyone I spoke to - best fucking fans in the world, anyone???:D
After all this time I finally signed up and got me logon, just like Raffbones as he is also a long time NO junkie like me and only just got round to it. To each and every one of you who pulled me - (EGG)reen PFD t-shirt - up out of the mosh no end of times thanks a million. Not been to a night like that for ages where everyone at the front was well up for it! Mind you, methinks that vast amounts of booze consumed at the Audley beforehand by everyone had lots to do with it! Good to see all the faces and I'll try and remember everyone's names for next time!
See who ever is going to Rock Werchter on Thursday...
PS I gotta go to the Physio tomorrow (previous appointment - nothing linked to Friday), but not quite sure how I'm gonna explain all the bruises all over me arms, legs, front and back!

Fantastic
Hibster was showing me some pics from Barca earlier and I said summat along the lines of "there's a fair fucking zoom on that thing, mate". Hibster then, er, 'extended his lens' for me. A bit like Jamie and the Magic Torch, I thought....
Incidentally, Ness, your probably won't be surprised to hear that several other NOOL-ers also commented on how tight your vest was; you'll be even less surprised to discover that nobody seemed to mind a bit.... ![]()
Its Sunday evening and I am at last together enough to be able to post. Remember nothing except brilliant time in mosh pit.
Thanks to everybody who helped me when I dropped my mobile - didn't affect the receptiobn at the other end apparently.
And if anybody's got my voice, could I have it back now please.
as with the barcelona pics i will stick all mine on an on line album that you need to be invited to see - send me your ae-mail addresses if you want to see them all & once i've uploaded allt he good ones will send it out.
(i took about 700 using the motordrive, so a lot will be shite, but thre should be one or two more crackers like the ones i've posted already.)

my memory is getting as bad as shugs! had totaly forgotten about that!
by the way frads - this one's for you

I had a great day,nice to meet up with most of the nooler's in the Audley beforehand,all where really nice people![]()
NOvirgin!?!? Not anymore! Touched for the very first time! :D Wow! I'll try and be as objective as possible, IF fooking possible!!! Heard them playing EGG earlier that day while on my way to meet Rocket Mick and I thought: Wow! They must have read my posts on nool in which I'm begging themto play EGG in HP, haha. Still such a shame they didn't do it. I kept singing and screaming like crazy. Good thing we (Darrell, Juha-King of nothing and me)lost all the onliners just before the gig otherwise someone would probably shoot me for screaming that loud.:D Fortunately, either them guys didn't seem to mind it or they were just being polite, haha! But I remember that girl standing right there in front of me turned to me and said: Oh, you must be a big fun then! And I said: Yeah and I came all the way down from Serbia just to see them here for the very first time in my life. She said: No!?!?! Really??? You must be mad then! Anyways, it was nice to meet you all there at The Audley Bar. I tried to say Hello to as many as possible but there were sooooo many of you guys. Cheers to RM, who kept introducing me as JSB :), Darrell Simpson (I think I haven't told you but big thanks for walking me to my hotel, mate), Juha (you better start posting again, it was a great pleasure talking to you and very sorry that you weren't able to hear all Moby's stuff because I had to go and eat something just before the gig but that's also a reason we lost all the others, haha) Al, Doctor Clayhead, Hibster, Tim, Ness, Ed (thanks for the ciggies, man, haha!!!) & Helen (I really enjoyed chatting with you), Geri and husband, Shug, Kevin Smith and all the others. And Chant if you're reading this, I really was looking for a girl wearing black WFTSC T-shirt but it was impossible to see anyone in the crowd. I really hope you enjoyed the gig. Will post some pics of the onliners as soon as I scan them. Promise. And as for the band, I only took the pictures of Bernard. Selfish, I know. Cheers everyone!!!!! It was a great day for me :)
Fantastic!
The reception in the audley from fellow noolers was brilliant!
Cant remember the gig that much as i was smashed. Ended up in the st johns ambulance tent in a neck brace tho!
Thanks guys you really are fantastic.
Mr + mrs ![]()
p.s i have some audley pics,will post them if someone tells me how to do it!
(Moi The bearded northerner bloke in black No USA tee)!Many thanks everyone for friendly vibes in Audley & down front.
Met people i havent seen since Fins. Park and plenty of new faces who i can now put names to
Mr & Mrs Nuts (did your good Lady friend drag you to see Bravery?); your mate with white top & glasses; Bansheeman; Shug & John; a lassy called Lorraine i think (in similar t-shirt) Jim & wife from Leeds; Mr Jarvis (i owe you another badge!); Rocket; The 2 lads in green t-shirts who knew Shug -one was a PFDrugs top & the other looked like a young Rob Gretton without beard - good crack; 2 lads from Germany and many more who were so easy to talk to Names forgotten).
I await your pleasant company on another excursion.
P.S the gig wasn't too bad either!! slight imperfections made for more interesting debate CIAO for now:D

How about some pics of you, so that we finally know that you are JSB. (Joyous Serbian Babe). Heck I think I've cracked the code.

What happened??!!
Your Mrs was top, outwardly smiling whilst probably inside thinking "get me away from these weirdo's" :)
Re The Bravery - when they came on the Glasto coverage last night, my four-year-old son pipes up "Dad, is this Duran Duran?"...
What pissed me off was that some o2 girls were handing out free tickets in the park! My mate at work walked over with me and he got one!! Could of saved myself £45!!!

Think that may have been me, and you`re welcome sir. My ribs are still fucking killing me.

I was that pissed i could hardly stand up,shoved my way to the front (getting a few slaps in the process!)must have fallen over a dozen times (thanx to everyone who pulled me up and finding my specs!!!!)I remember slipping on the wet grass and my back went and i just couldnt get up.I8 assume i must have been carried out by the sja guys,or other no fans,its all a blur! The next thing i remember is being in the st johns tent strapped to a back board/strectcher with one of those built in neck brace things that you see on telly.
Lost my mobile,couldnt remember what the hotel was called,ruined my brand new trainies and was caked in mud,must have then walked the WRONG way out of hp and must have ended up in knightsbridge!
Remembered the name of the hotel and got charged a tenner for a cab,5 mins after i got back mrs
came in the room with my mobile! result!
My back and ribs are still killing me,that was most def the worst mosh pit from hell !!!
All in all a very good day!

Crikey!

Cant remember the gig, missed last train to Manchester on Sat.....
Cracking gig ![]()
Mosh pit reminded me of the gigs in the '80s
Indeed another star is born.We have had the term MINTY MINT coined here by me for awhile now.The new one is NUTTY NUTS,makes us lot seem rather NORMAL.:D
Hurt my right knee but can't remember when and where. All I know is I've got a big bruise now and can't walk properly.
Ruined in a day wrote: My ribs are still hurting

Anyone got useful tips to ease the pain though?
Well i once took 3 years OFF work.That did the trick!![]()
