If you thought that it was bad upstairs, you should have had a go at getting to the Man, i managed it twice(once causing moz to utter a lazy "OUCH" during TROUBLE LOVES ME)but i came to land in the bottom of the pit with a hefty bounce, t-shirt ripped and a big bruise of one of the security. they were far to rough and all i can say is i hope it's easier at Hartlepool. Besides that it was an all round great show and it's good to see him back on form. Big hand also to SACK who shone not quite as brightly, but were good enough for a support.One more thing, where was the support for Boz and the boys? me and about 7 others hung around freezing our monkeys off for nearly 2 hours to say cheers. More gratitude i think....take care and have a pint for me.........
