Gay Bar is such a class song. I want to see how many men stop dancing out of embarrassment
What have they done since though? Can't say i've heard much of them since.

Just released their fourth album. Fire and Senor Smoke are masterpieces, Switzerland was pretty crap, and I haven't listened to the new one since I bought it. I remember it being quite funky though.

Are they still one of those bands that doesnt take themselves too seriously though? They seem like they would break out into slapstick mid-gig to me.

So Moyles has started and it seems like they're going to be rattling on about the football for most of the show.
He did say that Dave would be on the phone LIVE from USA though, so it's not a pre-record assuming he's not telling porkies.

Yep i did, i can't help staying up late and if i goto bed after 2am i can't get up before 12 no matter how much i try, so i decided to just say up all night then go to sleep in the afternoon.
And they are in a more annoying mood than normal, they won't shut the fuck up about the football. Yes England lost, now shut up about it!

Free Lossless Audio Codec.
Do you use winamp to listen to music? If so there is a plugin - http://www.winamp.com/plugins/details/143614
Or you could use VLC Media Player, that will play them straight away.

You need to convert it from FLAC to aiff or wmv or something like that. You should be able to download a free program to do it for you.

November 22nd 2007, 07:29 AM
What's FLAC? The sheffield gig is FLAC, and i can't play it? :confused:
You need to convert it to mp3. FLAC is a lossless format (i.e. CD quality), not many music playing software will be able to play it without a codec.

It's not like the acoustic stage idea was even that successful, atleast not for the people at the front.
This is going to be the same. At some stage during the show, many times more than likely, most bandmembers will have their backs to you.
I'm sorry but if i go to a gig i want to see the band stood on the stage in front of me, not fannying around rotating.

But remember it ain't just gonna be them four stood on the stage. All the acoustic setup stuff has to go on there, speakers, equipment, etc etc.
The sound will be all shit and echoey because there will be nothing behind or above it. I highly douby they will close the roof in June so the sound will just escape in every direction possible.
Captain Stu
November 22nd 2007, 08:10 AM
So it's either sit down and not see anything... or stand, have to deal with a cunty revolving stage and about 8 million people behind you all pushing and trying to kill you.
They are going to HAVE to put up some crowd-splitting barriers or someone is going to actually die. I'm super serial here.

But remember it ain't just gonna be them four stood on the stage. All the acoustic setup stuff has to go on there, speakers, equipment, etc etc.
The sound will be all shit and echoey because there will be nothing behind or above it. I highly douby they will close the roof in June so the sound will just escape in every direction possible.
Yeah mate, it's going to sound like ass. The sound's gonna be splurted out in a circle and just go out the roof.

Got my tickets and confirmation too. Everything was working well at 9am, just seems to have got jammed up later on.
Wasn't sure what was best and as I may be taking my girlfriends kid brother, I bought Level 2 seats and general admission. Does anyone know if there is an age limit on the standing tickets, he's 14 but will be 15 next year. Saying that, whenever I go to Brixton Academy the front standing area always seems to be full of school kids!!
Its a pain they don't tell you what block/row/seat number. Hopefully we get informed before the tickets are issued. I don't want to end up with a shitty seat.
Did anyone get Level 1 tickets. Their already on ebay, but when I logged on there was general admission, level 2 and level 5 tickets (what fan wants to be sitting in level 5 i tell ya!).

Chris Moyles spoke to Dave Grohl at 815am about the gig.
To cut a long story short, Dave wants to have the stage in the middle of the stadium, with lots of ramps in different directions and maybe even a revolving stage, so the band are in the middle of the crowd and so that everyone gets a good view...
Hope this helps :D

Think about it. Even if the stage rotates at 200mph and the band members spin indepently at a different speed, they are ALWAYS going to have thier backs to a large portion of the crowd. There will not be ONE SINGLE POINT where everyone in the arena can see the front/face of everyone. Not possible.

I dont think it is a fantasic idea, it's just a novel one. I saw Def Leppard (too many years ago) in the round and it worked OK. It depends if you are one of those tiny people who never get to see the stage no matter where you are in the venue. Thats me!

That way the people who want to be at the front can be at the front. The people who aren't too fussed can be in the middle, those who want to be at the back can be at the back.

I dont agree, what if you want to be up front but then so does everyone else and they are all bigger and ruder than you? Does anyone really chose to be at the back?
I was up front at Hyde Park but it diodn't take long for big blokes to elbow me out of the way. This year I've been working out but I'm still 5ft nothing.
