More Gigs

Manchester cricket ground is not the best place to be in the rain, but a little rain is worth putting up with when the Foo Fighters are playing. As gigs go it wasn't the best I've been to, nothing tops Def Leppard, but it was good. Would have been better without the rain and the hour and a half traffic jam to get out from the car park, but they provided fireworks, so Woooo!
Of course the wanker with the cup of piss was amusing.
Let me explain...A guy needs to pee in the audience but doesn't want to move from his spot cos he'll never find it again, so the guy pees in a an empty cup that is lying on the ground then puts the lid back on again. We know what is in the cup.
Another guy and his irritating mate push there way through and stand in front of us, they are acting like wankers and generally being obnoxious. There is a girl sitting on someone's shoulders further forward, and although she isn'tdoing any harm as such, she isblocking peoples views of the stage. Wanker number 1 says to Gary, is there anything to throw at her. wanker number 2 says there's a cup down there. Gary says nothing about whats in the cup. Wanker number 1 says, it's no good if there's nothing in it cos it won't have any weight behind it. wanker number 2 picks up said cup and finding it full of something, proceeds to DRINK some of it. Wanker number 2 is pissed and still doesn't realise that it is full of piss even after drinking a bit (how pissed must you be???) he says "it's a bit warm"...I kid you not. wanker number 1 then takes the cup, and with excellent aim I must say, throws it at the girl,hitting her squarely on the back. Fortunately for the girl the lid didn't come off the cup, but she got down from her perch pretty sharpish. The guy that pissed in the cup in the first place, then comes over and tells the wankers that the cup was full of piss....heh you should have seen the look on the face of wanker number 2...decidedly ill is putting it mildly. Me, Gary and Sam were pissing ourselves...scuse the pun.

Anyway on a slightly more tasteful note, KT Tunstall, last night at the Apollo. And she was fantastic (Def Leppard still number 1). She really is a mad scottish girl, between songs she'd tell these mad stories. Her voice is amazing and she actually plays guitar, and sings, at the same time. She makes great use of a loop pedal too in a good majority of her songs. Fucking Ace is all I can say.
