Cos the Addicted thread is getting clogged and sidetracked, lets have all the discussion here!

three more weeks till I can chill a bit.
Started rehearsing, doing everything from the solo albums live, (a bit o Phys, Infinity, OM, AE, Synch, Ki, Ziltoid, Terria etc...)
under the touring name 'Devin Townsend'
Ryan, drums, Dave, guitar, Beav bass...backup stuff on tape, not a 'band' as much as a showcase.
Shows in 4 or 5 months start?

This is where the magic moderator wands come in. BAI.

May get to hear a bit of the older stuff as well!!!!!!
Sweet, this time i went get too drunk, last time i got to see Dev live i got far too excited and ending getting completely trashed! Don't remember a huge amount! I do know it was damn good though!

I would like-
To plan a London meetup on the day of a London gig, with Dev present when he's free to meet the mob at an allocated forum-planned location to prevent STRANGERS coming.
A local support (Ted Maul or Esoterica would do me nicely. Maybe both.)
A gig at the Islington Academy
To give Dev an item of fruit on the day of requested gig. Possibly a banana.

Hooray! If he comes to the north of the UK (Eg, Leeds)...I will be one pleased woman.
Or if not, London it is (Even though I'm totally skint, the credit card will get a bashing!)

Count me in....although that would cause issues with your no strangers policy!

Aaaanyhoo. If we/I get to meet Dev I could probably bring something Norwegish. Like a lusekofte.

No no, you are suppose to wear something like that to the gig!
Much how if he visits Finland everyone must dress like this:

Begs dressing like the old man in the middle of that picture...
Do people abroad begs things or is it an Irish thing? It means I'm calling it so you can't.

If he comes to Ireland (although I don't fancy our chances) we'll dress like this, complete with the beer bellies and crooked teeth.

Or maybe this, depending on the mood...


I can't wait to see Dev. I'm willing to travel pretty much anywhere in Europe.
