Sadly, I only took about 3 photos as my camera phone is so crappy. BOOO! and I forgot my normal camera :(

Was that when Chris was calling him the best drummer ever by any chance? :blush:

Yes! I'm pretty sure it was!

aww its such a bad blurry pic :( but at the time, I felt kinda bad just holding up my mobile to take a pic even for a little while.... best to just enjoy the gig.

 

However....I did get my best pic of Mr. Jonathan Buckland....... surprise, surprise.... ahaha :heart:

I appreciate you tried to get a picture of will :laugh3: I've ended up fairly drunk and eating chicken pakora...how has this happened...and I have work in the morning......

I'm sorry Jen! It was a pathetic attempt eh! :( :lol: haha

I assure you that Aakash has some very good photos though. :D

 

enjoy your chicken :lol:

oooh excellent :D

 

I;m not even hungry!!! I;m so gonna regret this in the morning when i wake up with heartburn from hell!! :laugh3:

Lovely review Pete! couldn't have said it better. Had a great night which I'm never gonna forget!

 

Many thanks mate, me neither! Tonight was different, and perfect. It made it all the better to meet such a great small crowd of fine people through here :)

I've never seen the band up so close as I have this week, and have been absolutely blown away by Will and the effort he makes, easily equal to Chris imo. All my clapping at the end was pointed in his direction (though of course it was for all of them) and I did my best impersonation of a deeply-meaningful nod in his direction when he looked towards where I was, and thought I got a nod of understanding back. Brilliant.

I'm back as well and I still feel amazing! Thanks so much to all of you guys for making this a perfect day. It would have been rather boring and sad for me all on my own, but with you it was a lot of fun and I loved to meet people who are just as enthusiastic about the band and the music as I am. It's something really nice to share.

 

I put some of the butterfly confetti on my desk and will look at it all the time now and remember this fab day. Can't wait to see them live again!

Pete enjoyed reading that review, summed it up perfectly

 

O.K guys heres my pictures, for the people in it you all look beautiful

enjoy!

 

Brilliant mate, absolutely brilliant. My sister will be stoked, she was so happy to share all this with you all! Now we just need to have a little chat to get your link back up to Monday's pics with just one or two of that ugly tired fella - (i.e. me!) - removed for modesty and we have a full set of our our incredible three days that we've shared :) Really hope you'll send full-spec pics to me at my email when you have time.

 

It has been a pleasure to meet you fella, you've made this week for me. Thank you. Really.

 

By the way, the group photos are great, but no. 27 is my favourite. Beautiful.

Stephie you completed our little group today! It wouldn't have been the same without you, please do stay in touch and continue collecting confetti with us all! :)

Yes! I'm pretty sure it was!

thanks for sharing :D

Just watching it again and I have goosebumps!

 

I will upload my pics later as well.

I can't see the gig on BBC iPlayer :(

 

Has anyone found it online yet (torrents or...anything!!)?

I don't think they're gonna put it up.

 

Stupid EMI have probably asked them not to :(

 

Is repeated on Friday, with an interview.

There are vids on youtube.Jay-Z was there and it looked like he was really in to Lost!

I don't think they're gonna put it up.

cheers for that bit of info , ill record it then! hope they don't edit stuff out:confused:

 

If I don't see a torrent before the recording, I'll do my best to upload it.

JPB told me that they're going to replay it on Saturday. hm.

 

EDIT: i dunno, he lives in Ireland so maybe it's different.

so weird, I only spotted Ricky Gervais cause some buffoons insisted on shouting his name out during a mellow yellow, Perhaps Jay Z is checking out if Chris is up to standard for the following Saturday

I don't think they're gonna put it up.

Oh my, I thought ALL shows on BBC were available in the UK on iPlayer :bigcry:

 

Gosh, if anyone finds a torrent could you very kindly PM me please in case I miss it? Seeing the back of my head a couple of times means the world to me (plus I wouldn't mind seeing the actual gig of course lol).

 

My sis's partner recorded it to Skybox at least, if anyone knows how to pull it from that please also do let me know.

We'll I'm not sure but loads of programs that were on after CP like Holby City and a thing about Rob Lydon I watched not long ago are up and that still isn't :(

 

So many thanks for that, it's so hard to find things on here at times, especially when search is disabled!

 

I'm on a relative's PC right now (my own 'super PC' blew up a while ago trying to cope with getting me Brixton tickets :() and it's on Vista which has flagged that file as a serious threat. I must say I trust the members here more than Vista, but I've got to be careful as it's not my machine. Has anyone had any problems with this file?? Or (more hopefully) anyone opened it and can verify it's clean?

I think you're absolutely right, and my idea was wrong Mimi. Damn you BBC!!
