Waterboys in Bristol

Current mood: happy

Hi all,

I went to see the Waterboys yesterday! In the Colston Hall.

Remember "The Whole of the Moon"? And " Fisherman's Blues?" To name but a few?
Around 4pm I was running an errand for the gallery I work for and happened to pass the Hall. Two massive tour coaches were parked up and 2 guys were just bringing on trays of beer (my guess; didn't really pay attention as one of them was rather dishy. I know, I know...).
A quick glance on the "what's on": The flippin' Waterboys!!!! Had to dash back to work but I logged on and checked TheirSpace and sent off a quick message, trying to wiggle in on the guest list as it was sold out.

Anyway to make a long story really short, I managed to get a ticket from cancellations and a good spot I got too, next to the PA. I'd put on my 4 inch heels as Ms. Shortass here always looses out when everyone gets standing.
Well, they blew my socks off!!
As you can see and hear I've added their song as it works so well with MyBlog. "Nobody's baby anymore", it just rips my heart out. Superb wallowing. But what I really want to say is, go and see them live should you have the chance. Really! They were fabulous! And Mr. Scott is still a dishy chap with the most wonderful lyrics.

I wish now I had gone for the meet and greet afterwards, but I'm a shy girl really (stop shouting: Oh no you're not!) and my dainty feet were absolutely killing me by then.

't Was a busy night in Bristol as the Happy Mondays were playing around the corner in the Academy as well. Where's that cloning technology when you need it?
