I am definately interested, but...... Holland in november seems as cold as sweden. Spain or Italy would be my preference if possible. I will wait a bit and see if more dates will be added......
See him, I´m gonna!

PM'd you with where sulky lad and I are staying.
If you'd replied to my emails we'd have sorted you out a room as well!
By the way, with the exchange rate being the way it is, you owe me much more money for the ticket now

A short text from Verbal says it was 'fantastic'. He/they will tell all later , except to add that the setlist included ' Suffering Face' and a live debut for 'I Turn Around'.

Relief! Didn't sleep much last night...
I reckon he saw those two suspects there and on the spot decided to give them two rarities from the vaults. I can't remember I Turn Around at all, will have to revisit.
