He's actually German, you ignorant prick.
Erm which is probably why the French queue parted so easily.

now that's funny stuff right there...
Very enjoyable night although that was the roughest hangover I've had in years today.
Briefly chatted with Jake and Phil at the FNAC signing and they were very friendly and approachable. Bernard was predictably swamped as the centre of attention but I managed to get the French copy of Never Cry Another Tear signed in the end (fanks to Bonz for looking after it!); he was relaxed and seemed to be enjoying himself. One guy brought him a bottle of Russian (?) wine and his face visibly lit up... quality. So a tip for fans going to future events like this, just bring wine or maybe a big bag of money
guaranteed a chat.
The gig itself was really good and as a live band they seem to be getting better with each outing. They are a lot more confident with the tunes and it shows; highlights for me were (a surprising) Ceremony, Poisonous Intent (brilliant) and Out of Control.
Some of venue security were cunts it has to be said. I had to "disappear" into the crowd numerous times to avoid my camera being confiscated. Other Vikings didn't seem to be so lucky on that score. Bit draconian banning them completely innit? Not to mention unenforceable.
Great seeing the usual suspects as always.

Well I feel for you if you felt as bad as I did.... There was no way I could have got on a moving vehicle at 11am without the fear of throwing up... it took me until 4.30pm to manage to eat anything.. we got a 7pm Eurostar home and I slept all the way...

I really enjoyed the show and was lucky enough to witness it in front of the Vikings crew
Would have loved to talk to you guys a little bit more but 'hi!' to everyone single one that was there :) 'Ceremony' was very inexpected and quicked ass
What a tremendous song it is
The show was pretty good even though some of the BL songs are not up to it yet ('This is hooooooooome'
).
An encore would have been really nice :(
Anyway a truly good night overall ![]()
Yeah an encore wouldve been sweet, but you could tell it wasn't happening once they started packing up the autocue's
Just got back in at last. Apologies to any Parisians out there, but Paris is a bit of a shithole.
I was getting close to committing murder this morning re: the chaps trying to sell you metal Eiffel Towers. C___s.

I think, your problem was, you queued on the wrong side, the right one. In England they always queue left, because it's faster than to queue right. Please, don't ask me, why?

ho yes I saw you Cap'n !
the security were so stupid ![]()
Had a really good time and enjoyed it all - it was good to see and have time to chat to all the faces for a change. The band were great really tight I thought.
Must apologise to Burt and Jemma as I passed them on the stairs at Momatre metro station unfortunately, as me and the misses was trying to get our son up the stairs in his pram (I think it was probably over my head at the time) I couldn't really speak so sorry for that!
As for the songs I remember enjoying 'This is Home'.

Now I know the French for "I don't fancy yours much" and "if the collars don't match the cuffs...." Think this EU thing will work.
