I hope anyone from here that's lucky enough to be going to this one has a great time. I wish I was lucky enough to be going, If I was younger I'd be outside the door waiting for my chance to nip past the doorman. I left Thursday clear as well  |

Like I said you lucky so and so's, have fun and enjoy.
I went to see the Clash in the Electric Ballroom, Camden in 1980 (think) It was (and still is) the hottest gig I have ever been to, the condensation was actually running down the walls and once in there you had a devil's own job to move anywhere. but boy what a gig. I guess tomorrow's gonna be close to that for you lot, remember now, no jackets required

With out sounding too petty, I am 'kin miffed I didn't get to go to this one, I didn't realise how miffed I was until friday when I lost the urge to partake in anything "Special".
Sorry, I just wanted to get that off my chest

I know how good it must have been, I went to some of the gigs before Gangsters "broke" and they were all from the top drawer, I also went to see Madness on a river boat gig on the Thames at their height with around 150 people on board.
I would have gladly given that one up to go to this one, no question, this was a Specials gig of a life time.
Even worse (for me), I have been to every Specials gig i wanted to go to in town I have known about since 1979 - that's a record I know no longer have.
I could have gone and tried to blag my way in, but I am not 20 anymore and age does play a part in the decision making process.
Oh well, it's gone now and nothing will ever give me that gig back again, best I just get on and deal with it.
GRRRRRRRR

Not to worry, I wouldn't have expected any favours fom anyone, I have always brought me tickets and enjoyed every second of being there.
That reminds me of another little story, I won tickets to the premier of Dance Craze and whilst queing to get in Terry walked past me and offered me his tickets.
I said I already had one and he gave them to someone else, that was a great day as well
