Things That Gladden The Heart

When someone you work with gets to play Augusta and in return for showing you a ton of pictures of the course, hands you a polo shirt and cap.
 
Tempted by Australian Pink Floyd at £30 a ticket standing...problem is that my Mrs won't be interested - maybe I'll see if my son fancies going along.

I've always had a but of a sniffy thing about 'tribute' bands - but had a little epiphany a few weeks ago when I realised that every orchestra playing - say - Beethoven's 5th Symphony is in a way a Beethoven 'tribute band'. And my thinking has changed - all that APF are doing is playing Floyd's 1st-9th Symphonies That said, tickets for Nick Mason's Saucerful of Secrets are still available for next month at £52...however - coronavirus :(

My brother went to see Aussie Pink Floyd and said they were brill.
Cancellations due to coronavirus is a concern. I went to see the Stereophonics in Sheffield last Friday and i'm glad i did if they are looking to stop large social events.

Aussie Floyd are fantastic, £30 in this climate for a show of theres is a bargain.
 
HID, she's amazing. After a horrible coughing night, and the prospect of a pairs q/f to play today, she's only gone and done me breakfast in bed. A pot of coffee and lots of toast... crumbs everywhere but, hey, a fab way to start the day.

She's definitely a keeper.
 
My lad heads off today working on Turin Brakes tour. He earns on a show by show basis so hopefully things will be OK for the next two weeks. Fair does to him - it's a heck of a commitment and effort - tonight it is Middlesborough then Saturday night Norwich :eek:
