First Timer

See you there Steve Boy, Birkenhead Pacific Road is sold out - and they have recently fitted more fire exits to get the maximum number of admissions increased. It's going to be a stonking good show here - Joe has played Pacific Road a couple of times before and his fan base has morphed out of control! I'm taking about 20 or so mates of mine including familiy and members of the dive club I belong to, plus a couple of my business customers.

Pacific Road (the council actually) have begun work building a new theatre at New Brighton, just three miles down the road from Pacific Road in readiness for Joe's next UK tour as it seems he may have outgrown the smaller venues, although Pacific Road still boasts a good size capacity - the new theatre will be able to hold many more! - Joe's team take note!!!!

And when that's over I get to pick up Michael Lynch on Lime Street, well the station actually!!! as he's staying over for a couple of days whilst we pick up the gigs at the M Club in Crewe and the Academy in Manchester, then Mike's off to another gig before we hook up again in Newcastle for Joe's gig at the Academy there - that last gig in Newcastle is going to be something special - you can bet your granny on that. I'm even taking customers to that one too!!

So Joe may play at the Royal Albert Hall eh!!??!! in May of 2009! - Let's hope that the management team can reserve some places for street team members for that one - there's no way I'm missing out on the best seats in the house for what will be the first MAJOR pinacle of Joe's carear. I think Joe and the team recognise the valuable work we've all put in over the last couple of years, so we should get a head's up on that

Good to see Joe regularly posting on the forum during the tour - the guy is so in tune with his fans, we really are a lucky bunch. Bet you guys in the States are envious of the growth of Joe as a phenomenon here in the UK - Sold out at every gig - WOW!

Thanks for the welcome guy's. I went to see Wishbone Ash at Pacific Rd for the last few years I dont live to far away just through the tunnel by Penny Lane and yes the bank is on the corner. I will have my guitar strap with me for the boys to sign so if you see me come and say hello

Rock on

Hi Stevie..Glad you found Joe before he left Europe. Please let us know about your Bonabaptism. I can't begrudge the enthusiasm Europeans have for Joe & Co. It's a wonderful thing! They need to feel the love. Since I can't be there, having Bonabuddys go and tell us all about the shows is 2nd best! Just look for the Joe shirts and say Hi! Have a great time!     Cathy
