Dean and I are going to buy our tickets tonight...anyone else interested?
Brief write up.
Well Ginger was only on for about 30 minutes . . . Followed by Hanoi Rocks Bonzai Sucks.
Cracking set, with Ginger in top form . . . alot of chatting and crowd interaction which was really cool.
Most songs off of the last " . . . Must be destroyed" album, but others thrown in.
The highlight was finally getting the opportunity to speak to the man (he must be about 6'4" !!!).
We had a quick chat about music, future work and (obviously) Tattoos.
Got some photos, and Chris got his Siggy . . . .
Sammy got a kiss on the cheek (which made her night) and I got to shake the hand of one of my (living) Musical Heros.
A really nice guy, polite and intelligent.
Ginger - You Rock !
(piccy's to follow)
Good night then (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/up.gif)
Glad everyone had fun (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/cool.gif)
