I was just thinking that this time last year, the diary was chock a block with D events- Haydock, the 3 Maidstone gigs, Danson, Culzean, Lincoln etc etc and as much as I loved seeing D in Chicago, I would so love to see him performing his own material again. Given the choice, wold you prefer him to do an acoustic set (a la Maidstone) or a hip thrusting, bum wiggling performance (like Culzean)? As much as I loved the Maidstone show, because it was so intimate and smooth I think I prefer the louder, rockier shows like Culzean. What about you? :D

Unfortunately Ive never got to see Darius at Maidstone but I loved Culzean and Lincoln.

I would just like anything at the moment but I do love the atmosphere at the large shows :yahoo:

I love the accoustic sets. If it were new music, I'd like any type of gig.

I :yahoo: both......but what I want is to hear something new that is pure Darius...either setting would do

 

 

...or my front room :lol:

Pam Can I come please? :D

Poor Steve, a house full of Darius fans. He'd probably run away for the day.

Did you go to haydock as well? Isn't that your neck of the woods?

 

Yes I did I loved that as well I didn't even notice the rain :dance:

I am sure I was stood next to you M C waiting outside at the end

The security men were not very nice and you said something to me about them.

He can go out on his Harley.........just need to sort a date and time with Darius now...... :o

Let me know when.

I'd love a Butlins-type gig i.e. a convention where Darius does an intimate acoustic set of his OWN songs, a question and answer session, a meet and greet and a full blown rocking concert to finish up.

 

If I HAD to choose, it would be Darius commanding the stage in full Culzean mode. In longer sessions he always manages to slip in a few gentler numbers anyway. I really want to hear him sing all of the songs from Live Twice. He really knows how to use a stage and work an audience but it's harder to do when he's sitting down playing his guitar.

That was one truly amazing day! Probably my best D experience to date!

I'm desperate to hear him sing 'Better Man' live!

That just about sums it up, doesn't it Baytree!!! :lol: :dance: It certainly sounds good to me!!

 

BRING IT ON DARIUS (PLEASE)!!! :yahoo: :D

This time last year we still had a list of events......I do hope his next message brings some news of appearances........

I haven't seen Darius live since Jan 05 .... seems like eons ago - so anything would do, I'd just like to be able to go :P :lol:

 

But, if I'm being idealistic, then I'd love my 2 hour + Darius special that I designed on Divas agees ago - a full band monty rock-type gig in the open air on a sunny afternoon; and as night falls, a mellow-chilled acoustic session in the same place - under the stars :wub: - ALL of his songs, including those we've never heard live before please :D

Not asking for much then SS :lol:

Nah, it might make up for all the ones I didn't get to last year - might, though actually thinking about it, I think I'd planned this one before I knew I was going to miss several :P ;)

I would settle for any D gig, but given the choice, I would love to attend an acoustic gig in an intimate setting. I never made it to maidstone :( I missed out on Butlins :( :( and I regret not putting my foot down in the past and saying sod the expense I am going. I will not let a little thing like "she who must be obeyed" stop me from attending a D gig in the future ;)

:o B.P......

 

...I'm afraid I just tell my husband I'm going....the only time I don't get is when we are away or I can't change my work rota....and then I'm as miserable as.....

 

 

I was so excited this time last year :yahoo:

What a night the 13th was at Culzean Castle :dance:
