Hahaha, you've not heard of Jeff Beck? Thats funny. I guess you must by quite young.

I'm seeing Massive Attack on Friday, most of the people I've told have said "Who are they?" - unbelievable!

I'm hoping it's a sitting gig, certainly no seats just the grass at Kings Park.

I'm not young and I'd never heard of him, until BS was talking about him one day, and no I don't have a shit taste in music - all rock.

Did I miss the boat somewhere? :blink:

Here's Jeff smashing his guitar up from the film Blow Up. Jimmy Page also features.

When I went to see Kiss last year there were security people ordering people back to their seats after they got up to stand at the back. Guess it depends wich security guys you get in your sector and how strictl they try and enforce the rules.

Takes me back a few years - every school disco used to end to the sound of Hi Ho Silver Lining :thumbup:

General Entrance, Standing is my preference.

I would also like smoking brought back (compulsory if necessary) and more places to get a drink.

If you think concert going is policed by little hitlers in QLD then try enjoying yourself at the concrete sweatbox that is The Gabba.

I'm off to Adelaide this year for The Ashes in preference ... still expecting Nazism but the surrounds will be nicer.

Getting old my friend, but I could tell that from your avatar ;) ... I'm off to see THE Peter Green at the Bluesfest this year :thumbup:

We used to do a mobile disco - end of the 70s all the 80s. Either ended with Hi Ho or You'll Never Walk Alone. Cheesy? Yup. Popular? Oh most definitely. We were very well known in the area and if we tried to finish with something else people would assume the disco was still going :lol:

You'll never walk alone is a brilliant song - never cheesy :thumbup:
