Thrill-seeker, did we meet in the pub prior to David's show on the Monday?
It was nice to meet you 
If so...I'll save a nice spot for everyone 
It was good to meet you too. Hope to see you again on Saturday - I'm planning to take a banner, however, I'm not sure what to write on it ... I can only think of ...thrill-seeker wrote:We did indeedLand into Gold wrote: You're correct.

Perhaps we might bump into each other amoung the 50,000 other fans
Well I'll be there roughly around 9 as well...or even earlier
I think you're right Stu. I'm probably gonna hide out in here for bit.simpledumbpilot wrote:Some advice for everyone thinking of getting there really early to be at the front, there really is no need, we managed to get 3 deep last night for Mode half hour before the band came on and that was with loads of Goldfrapp fans jumping around all over the place, it'll be a much more laid back crowd for Waters and easier to navigate through, just remember to go in from the side. Also the stage is VERY high so be prepared to come away with a bad neck if youre going to watch it from the front, your view will also be obstructed by the camera crew moving about filming for the screens at the sides of the stage.
I'll probably get there for about 4.

Spit here!
Any ideas would be welcomed!
Absolutely brilliant, I think that was the best show I've seen them do since 1988!! They played Photographic which is a really old favourite of mine that I never thought I'd see them do live again, that made my day! Thomas Dolby was on as well, he was superb, surrounded by synths that he was programming as he went along, I like that sort of thingLand into Gold wrote:How were Depeche Mode?
Saw the Flaming Lips and Massive Attack there on friday too, was particularly pleased Massive Attack had Liz Fraser guesting, I love The Cocteau Twins but never saw them live, Flaming Lips ruled the day tho, a brilliantly bonkers show with the best version of Bohemian Rhapsody I've ever heard (yep, even better than Bad News' version ), god knows what their next tour will be like, they keep managing to take things several steps further everytime!

That would be a fantastic banner. I would pay just to see his reaction
I do actually have an idea for a banner. I really would love to tell you however I have to keep this one quiet so no-one steals it !
Yes, hope to see you too on Saturday
I'm so jealous particularly of Depeche Mode and even more so of Massive Attack. I'm a huge MA fan and Liz Fraser's vocals are superb! Wasn't able to get to Wireless this year due to work commitments and just missed tickets for Westonbirt Arboretum.simpledumbpilot wrote:Absolutely brilliant, I think that was the best show I've seen them do since 1988!!

) but I had to say that was a blinding show!! spent a bit of time with thrill-seeker, Gem. and David Smith whilst watching Chris Difford country-fy Squeeze classics, he really shouldnt have, missed the worst bit of the football due to going to watch the Lightning Seeds who sounded shite, Waters played a blinder tho, was a bit disapointed that Gunners Dream has been dropped but hey ho, highlights for me were Fletcher Memorial Home, Sheep, Time, Vera / Bring The Boys... and Brain Damage / Eclipse, will post more when I'm more awake, just watching the footage back now, damn we sang loud!! :smt006 That was the first time I heard it and it really caught me Other highlights were Sheep and the whole Darkside set
