Manchester:
Belfast: Fookin grate! It was my first time in Ireland and we were only there for 24 hours. Shame. I did however flirt with a spicy redhead, drink an Irish Guinness, and purchase and learn to play the Penny Whistle. The Irish Half is comin' out! Now we're back in Manchester for a day off. David took us out for a wonderful band dinner (instead of us going to see Bon Jovi in the rain).
Next up: Sheffield, Newcastle, then London- Wembley Arena!
I've been getting on great with the Leppard guys. They were idols of mine before I started playing bass, and now we're drinkin and hangin buddies. This is a great double bill- I hope it goes to the states.
Manchester MEN Arena
My Van Gough moment: when you hold your bass up high to bring it down for dramatic effect, only to have it catch on your earring on the way down.
