twas mentioned in the great gigs thread as well


On the one hand, compared to Madge and Babs recent gigs, it's not THAT bad (out of my league tho) but whether you are up for it or not is kinda moot, considering the likely demand


Plus, bottom line is I agree with Keef on this one - I'm no big fan of them (heresy tho that seems to most of my friends)

Yep, name goes into a ballot, whcih I have done. So lots of staying in to save up if I should be lucky!

OK< bad form to talk to yourself online, but turns out that I, along with Circa 25,000,000 other people have put their names into the ballot...


Ho Hum,.....

I know, I can hear them....all the time, when I'm alone, by myself.....

Ballot was OK, it's the spending money I object too......


Yep, saw the purpley one, and really enjoyed it, which came as a huge suprise to me as I've never ever liked his stuff, but was there being the dutiful husband part. Like she cared if I was there..... ;-)

Personally I think you must be nuts to go and see a band well past it's sell by date. Their heyday is well gone. They will never be able to recreate a stage performance that merits the ticket price. Better to preserve the memory rather than replace it with an enduring image of a bunch of OAP's embarrassing themselves in a final bid to raise funds to soften the impact of IHT! And yes I am a Led Zep fan and once bumped into Robert in a launderette in Primrose Hill, but that's another story!

I think you may have a point there Captain. There's money to be made in nostalgia. There seems to be a lot of bands reforming just to top up their bank accounts. But having said that, I'd love to see the Pistols again but it's hardly likely they'll be playing down the 100 Club or the Roxy. At least Zepplin are doing their gig for charity. I wouldn't have thought they'd need the money.

      Possible lost black Irish wolf hound Peckham rye park

      By chazmo · Posted

      Big black Irish wolfhound wandering around Peckham rye on the grassy area near the smaller playground (not the cafe one). Couldn’t see an obvious owner, he had a collar on and very placid but no details on collar. He wandered off (and I wasn’t in a position to stay) but please can folks keep an eye out if he’s still wandering about later in case he has been abandoned. Park ranger numbers were not working 😞

      New homes vs inferstructure

      By Spartacus · Posted

      There are "plans" to build more reservoirs, with physical work yet to be started, with the first hoped to be completed by 2036, and a second by 2040, then time is needed for them to fill so add at least another 12 months on. However, if the 1.5 million homes are built by 2028, each averaging 2 people occupying them.(some will be more, some will be less) then thats 3 million people showering, bathing and using water.  Therefore there is a massive demand that will strain our current inferstructure between 2028 and 2037 (nearly ten years) plus all those homes will need electricity, as the ambition is to phase gas usage out, which will take just as much time to reinforce the network to cover, let alone add in the ability to cope with green production electricity that needs to be moved from wind and solar farms to where it is most needed.  Therefore, is the current plan to build more homes, regardless of where they are,  potentially going to have serious ramifications on already creaking networks ?
