We even had Rob & Rijkels with us at this one! The journey there was so funny when we got to Grantham….round & round that roundabout whilst they caught up with us 😉 We were still outside when Queen Adreena started. I was gutted about that. But, we did see a little part of their set (I think)

I guess Andy was tired…& i decided to stick my finger up his nose 😉 (Cheers to Ady for photos)

Queen + Paul Rodgers, @ Hallam Fm Arena, Sheffield 9-5-05

Whilst at a Guano Apes gig in Germany, I met a guy from England who works for Queen. We got talking about various things Queen related etc & he got me on (Brian Mays) guest list for the show in Sheffield ! Sat behind me was Freddies mum ! The show was filmed for a DVD. What a night indeed 🙂

EDIT 2020 : I think the guy who was working for Queen, might have been Kris Fredriksson ? (Kris, if you happen to read this, please get back in touch. I lost my mobile which had your number in it)

Juliette & The Licks, Central Station, Wrexham, Wales 17-4-05

I’d enjoyed previous show so much that i just had to go to this! Last minute, very long drive, but whatever ! Funny thing; whilst hanging around the venue a land rover turns up towing a trailer which had a stage barrier in it. I hear the guy talking, look at his face  & realize i’ve met him before , in Boston, 20 years ago ! He works for ” Solid Entertainments”, based in Grimsby. He couldn’t believe it that i remembered him from the Girlschool gig in Boston back in December 1984 🙂
