Sarah *waves* are you still buzzing from your gig? :D

where did you see Keane? You see them on this tour? I went to the Liverpool gig last Saturday (7th Feb) and had a fantastic night! I remember when Keane supported Travis in Manchester in 2004 that was a fantastic night too having Keane supporting and then having Travis finishing the night off :D :D

I have a friend called Dave Healy. He's met Fran aswell but never mentioned his second name :stunned: :laugh3: they might be long lost brothers :shocked2: :laugh3:

you can wink at someone without it being sexual. Plus Dougie is married as Sarah said :laugh3:

Dougie is always doing that :laugh3: he always looks like he's having the time of his life on stage, smiling and winking :D

:laugh3: Andy was cheating then ;) :laugh3: I'm so happy you had a great time. I can't believe you got to hear Village Man!!!! :laugh3: Did they not play Blue Flashing Light on your night aswell?

I felt the same way. He talks to you like a friend aswell and has alot of time for you, a very nice guy. I never really got chance to speak to Dougie when I met them, did he say much to you? Did you say hello to Neil and Andy?

awww, Franny is the man! Not only an amazing musician but a camera wizzard aswell :laugh3: Both pics are fab you know. You said you think Felix's pic is better than yours but I have to say they are both as good as each other. Felix looks really chuffed on his one :D :dance: :D

^ ^ those pics are ace Sarah! :D You confused me tho for a second there, I was thinking, who's Winnie? hahahaha Fran is the nicest guy ever, he makes you feel relaxed aswell, the man is a legend :D Fran looks weird playing the Bass tho hahahahaha

I didn't know Fran wore glasses tho :confused: :laugh3: I'm really rather jealous you got to hear 'Village Man' :laugh3: I love that one! What else did they play, can you remember the setlist? Looking forward to seeing your other pictures :D

Another great song from that album and one of his most famous and most loved songs: [ame=http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=LOi_wxypeGc]YouTube - John Martyn - May You Never[/ame] and One of my personal favourites: [ame=http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ew6P_KoEPzc]YouTube - John Martyn - Dealer[/ame]

very true, Dave is a fantastic channel. I love when they show the re-runs of Whose Line Is It Anyway? :D Very much looking forward to seeing these new Red Dwarf epsiodes :D

he was, I can't believe no-one else (apart from yourself) has commented on his passing! RIP John!

Such a sad day! So sad to hear of John passing away this morning :cry: http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2009/jan/29/john-martyn-dies The singer-songwriter John Martyn has died aged 60. Known for musical marriage of folk and jazz, Martyn was one of the most distinctive and prolific artists of his generation. His most successful album was 1973's Solid Air, the title song of which was said to be in tribute to singer-songwriter Nick Drake, with whom Martyn was often compared. His career spanned four decades and he worked with numerous high-profile musicians, including Eric Clapton, David Gilmour and Phil Collins. He also worked extensively with his former wife Beverley Martyn. For much of his career, Martyn enjoyed a lifestyle of typical rock'n'roll excess and later struggled with alcoholism. He once told Q Magazine: "If I could control myself more, I think the music would be much less interesting. I'd probably be a great deal richer but I'd have had far less fun and I'd be making really dull music." In 2003 his right leg was partially amputated after a large cyst under his knee burst, leading him to spend his latter years in a wheelchair. Martyn was awarded an OBE in the 2009 New Year honours list. A statement posted on his website today reads: "With heavy heart and an unbearable sense of loss we must announce that John died this morning." The cause of death has not yet been confirmed.

I'd say buy The Last Broadcast first, but I agree with Comster, you really should get all their albums, each is amazing in it's own way!

Andy's vocals on 'Jetstream' are amazing, I'd say it's his best vocal performance! The guitar solo break bit reminded me of 'Supermassive Black Hole' by Muse aswell. I'm really intriged to hear what the rest of the album is gonna sound like! It's good to have them back, it really has been too long!

just listening to 'Jetstream' now. It's different, took me by surprise at first. Looks like they're moving forward yet again :D

check your inbox Sarah :D Hope you enjoy, I recorded it straight off the vinyl for ya. Take it easy x

coming right up, check your inbox in about 10 minutes :D

That new episode was class!! Murray is my favourite "where's your dad guitar?" :laugh3: Gotta say thanks to ya mate for getting me into them :D

would you like me to PM you the extented version of 'Song To Self'?

This is my personal favourite conchords song :D so catchy and hillarious! I've had this song in my head all day! I love the Barry White musical references aswell, genius! [ame=http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=f_mk8hrZWic]YouTube - Flight of the Conchords - Business Time[/ame]

I thought the BBC would have wanted to have this exclusive. I hope it's not a half arsed attempt to promote Dave. I'm looking forward to seeing the new episodes tho, it's been a while :laugh3:
