Finally managed to sort myself out with tickets for LG Arena Birmingham { or the NEC as i still call it }. So that's just Isaac and I here then. Should be an intimate gig ;D ;D

Modern times

LG arena in Birmingham, that used to be the NEC

O2 Arena in Dublin, that used to be the Point Depot Theatre

And I wonder how many more venues changed their names...
You might get lucky, now and then

Nice to have finally found this forum.  Enjoy reading all you good peoples' comments,  I wondered why TK's forum had gone quiet!  Not made up my mind whether to go this year or not,  I can't do the RAH run as I'm on holiday at the time.  I thiught I'd wait to see the setlists and reviews before committing myself to travelling to Brighton or Birmingham.  Have to say I'm underwhelemd so far.  Its basically the last tour's set list with a couple of new songs added.  And they seem a bit too close to the album versions from the bootlegs so far.  Don't get me wrong, I'd love it on the night regardless of what he plays but it looks just a little like going through the motions to me so I'm not convinced that I'll bother.   But wbho knows....... ::)

Hey Jimbo!

Welcome to this great forum! You nearly used almost the same words that described how you found this place as I did last june! It is great to be here,
a very friendly, open and "intelligent"  :lol place to be! And everybody is just so aware of everythink about Marky! So have a good time here!
I however use my "old" name, so I ask myself if I ever read "Jimbobaby"! Of couse you shouldn't tell your other name if you do not want to, just
curious!

There is a thread called "Who are we" in the "General Discussion" section where all  the "famous" people around here tell us who they are and why!

Have fun!

LE

Hi LE.  Thanks for the kind welcome.  I was Jimbobaby on the TK board too but only started posting to any great extent just before it went quiet. But I used to read it a lot and wondered why it suddenly went quiet.  Looking forward to participating a bit more on this board.  I'll check out the various nooks and crannies.  Cheers  J

That's how I started on here!  I've been reading the two forums for ages but only started voicing my opinions relatively recently.  I'm quite sure some would have rather I had kept just reading! ;)
Welcome on board, but remember we'll ban you unless you go to at least 10 concerts! ;)

Cheers dmg.  I suspect my resolve will probably waver as the UK leg of the tour gets nearer.  The dates are bad for me this time round because of holidays and other commitments but I suspect it will be easy enough to get a single ticket for Brighton or Bournemouth.  If the setlist tweaks a little over the next couple of weeks (is there a smiley for a flying pig?  ::)) I might be tempted.  Are ther any meet ups going on?

My wife and I will be at the Minneapolis show at the State Theater this Sunday.  Looking forward to my FIRST MK concert!  I've been listening and enjoying his playing/music since DS days.  Can't wait for Sunday!! ;D

Quote DMG: "I'm quite sure some would have rather I had kept just reading! Wink"

Naaahhhhh you silly DMG ;D, as you know we love it when people read AND post their messages and opinions!  ;D

Welcome to this forum Jimbobaby and Musicfinder!  ;D It's great to see you joined us here. I hope you will have a great time with writing and reading interesting, funny and sometimes crazy messages when some ladies get wild now and then when they think about Mark! :P  ;D

Btw Jimbobaby at page 1 of this thread you can see who will be at which concert. My husband and I will be in Brighton and meet some friends (again) from this forum. I think I don't have to tell you how much I am looking forward to that!  ;D

Musicfinder I wish you both a great time at the concert! ;) I am sure it will be a great experience for you both! ;)

If you are good to other people, most of them are good to you too!

I don't think this information is correct.
