message query for thanks for ur

Thanks to everyone who helped get the message through yesterday

All potential liftees made it to the train safely, and we're all in work on time. I'm going to get the train into work every day this week. Exercise ahoy!I think our first TV advert just went out at 0905. Call and traffic levels are steady so far......

The friend who took the call will contact you, thanks!

RE: Thanks for even more detail

Hi again. Not sure where you got your info about Black Sabbath playing at the 'Art College' - The only 'Art College' I can recall, at the time, was in Canterbury ( we played there sometime in '74), not Folkestone...? Also, according to the Black Sab...

Thanks for even more detail

Great to hear, nice story of nearly "making it" too, that's a lot further than 99% of bands get!Just thought, I wonder if Black Sabbath played twice in Folkestone around that time? As the first gig I added here for 1970 was supposedly at the Art Coll...

RE: Thanks for that brilliantly detailed reminiscence

Hi Pauly.... Sorry but my brain's a little befuddled about exact dates. However, I can tell you that it would have bee arounf the period 1970-1971-ish to around 1976-77ish? During this period I was also in a local (Dover) band myself: "Father Luke"...

Thanks to whoever just bought ATP World Tour tickets

Here ATP World Tour, a tennis event at the O2. High prices for tickets, someone just got some from here, the commission is excellent!Hmm, unless it was Clare bought the tickets, then I am very much down on the deal. Seems to be a good event anyway, f...

RE: Thanks for that brilliantly detailed reminiscence

Nice write up!

Pauly,the "Skid Row" in your link is not the band yer man mentioned - it'll be this Skid Row http://www.alexgitlin.com/skid.html the original brilliant Irish rock trio!

Thanks for that brilliantly detailed reminiscence

Don't suppose you have any dates for any of the other shows? I remember seeing at TOFTS: Fleetwood Mac; Stray; Deep Purple [I'm fairly sure?]; Skid Row, and many more. Whilst, at the Leas, we saw: Atomic Rooster; Judas Priest; Curved Air; Uriah Heep;...

Thanks Colin, we have Windebanks and Irish's

And the location sounds about right too, but we don't have any of those names in our tree at the moment (though we have Irish and Windebanks by the dozen.... I think there's a very good chance that we have a connection though, I will pass this on to ...

Google's new advertspysing

Read all about it at the Guardian. Putting this up here as I have google ads on my site, so just letting you know that if you suddenly start seeing adverts for bum cream here, and I'm not even talking about bum cream on the blog (if there even is suc...

New IPOD shuffle

Small as hell but now 4GB, but they done this by moving the controls into the headphones,. So no more trying to disguise what kind of music player you have in your pocket / clipped to the back of your tie.Never used a shuffle before, but they're givi...

Thanks for the update Dave

RE: Thanks, advice from another friend at work here is NO too

Have you considered the Squeezebox technology from Slim Devices? I've used the Classics before, they stream off your network and each one can be streaming different music. You can jump tracks around too. Logitech bought Slim Devices (last year I t...

Thanks, advice from another friend at work here is NO too

It seems to be just one way communication, sound is streamed from the PC to the airport express, and then I can plug speakers in to that. I can't send anything back the other way to skip a track or anything. This would be slightly worse than the curr...

RE: Thanks for chipping in on the site anyway

Sorry to jump in but I'm seeing some valuable input here. You're all clearly live music fans so could I ask you all who would be your top 5 live bands to see. It would be most helpful if they are current and still performing and preferably the kind o...

Thanks for this Chris, love this gig history

Got all of these gigs in the Metronome history page, don't suppose you have the actual dates of any of those do you?

wahey, thanks for letting me know it is now the Marlowe!

I didn't know which venue the Odeon was. One of those nights you'll never forget? You forgot the date! Have you seen the photos that were taken that night? They're linked to from this site somewhere, some ace live shots...UPDATE: Here's that picture,...

Thanks Mark, I hope someone finds that helpful

Thanks for the response Mark

Haven't really thought about this since that day but I'm intrigued again now, please get in touch, pauly at clarkeology dot com.

No lunch for me thanks

Blee, it's our "rumble in the jungle" fun day at work and they've just completed their bushtucker trial type thing. Brains, tongue, testicles, scorpions, all sorts. Couldn't really get close enough to take any pictures or shoot any video but I will c...

RE: Thanks for clearing that up!

She wasn't actually working at the time. Unfortunately I know who it was and some background on it. It is a shame but suicide is indeed a very selfish act but then society might be to blame for causing some of the ills of this world. I am not going t...

Thanks for clearing that up!

Another STRANGE "fact" I heard from someone at work was that the lady in question jumped after she'd finished her shift in Wilkinsons... why would you not do it before?

Thanks for the update

I've updated the page. That pub looks great!

Thanks for the message

I know there must be people stumbling across these pages, it's nice when they say hello.

The video was in Portchester in Hampshire actually, though we do live in Folkestone.

Wahey thanks
