I hope they would leave darius bit(s) in

looks like the Beatles tribute will be on TV, as we got an email this morning from Lostintv offering tickets for the show - albeit they are still expensive!! I hope it is on, should be quite a show! I sort of wish they would do a big Elvis tribute with Darius involved as I still tingle at Darius in Elvis mode on Des Oconner!! who else has such a deep velvet voice to do Elvis songs justise

looking forward to tonight, hope it stops raining - yes, hopefully we can meet up, it looks a bit smaller than O2 I am centre front row too!! can't wait

it doesnt seem to have much PR, although most local theatre stuff relies on the booklet and in house posters - ocal press etc I suppose

I will get there hook or by crook!! now OH is worried the girl booked him a car for tomorrow instead of saturday as she was saying they didnt have much left as it was Eide...LOL, he hasnt got the email confirmation as promised..so he will have to check tomorrow in case she has booked friday LOL

well, as usual things never go smoothly..grating rear brake yesterday and today..and having had it checked over at national tyresearlier they said all pads and disks are worn and the brake cylinders are leaking - in short my brakes could fail at any time, so just this minute we have had to hire a car for st albans!!

thanks, BT

dont recall it, thanks for that

mm, see what you mean

lol, I am worried in case we are the only ones there..

yup, I would like the song type of the demos - do hanker for D singing from the heart, songs with a meaning, more personal

not long to go!! bit nervous wondering if there will be a decent audience!!

have to say I loved the demo songs - I am not a swing lover tbh, if these were sung by the likes of bubbly and callum..I probably wouldnt take much notice, but D's deep voice just mesmerises me whatever he sings!! looking forwrd to st albans - there is something else I wouldnt have gone to unless D was singing!!

:wub: lovely

i know,same old...think we will give this a miss - oh reckons there are ao many performing that darius may only sing one or two songs anyway- i am going through beatles songs i recall wondering which ones he would sing

how odd, as usual finding stuff still by the odd tweet- OH said it sounds good as he likes TC and SB!! link

not sure if this is real, no date for this, dont know if it sounds spoof or not, as I ahvent heard of any of them apart form shirley, tony and darius oh and Mike read :blink: LOL and the date it was posted says the 5th sept 2010..??? but thought it worth posting Experience The Beatles as never before - with, the sound, the passion and the raw excitement of their timeless music recreated by the one of the most well loved orchestras in the world. The Beatles Philharmonic Tribute marks the 50th Anniversary of the music of The Beatles.

mm, very nice - just musing, how after all this time, the words chilli concarni can be so evocative - still makes me smile when i am cooking it after all this time as those words and image of them being sung has never faded

what am i like great pics, looking forward to st albans so much - my favourite song? let there be love, still have that on video from the PI tour, it still gives me tingles, so as his voice has matured and deepened, I hope to hear this

lol, funny enough looking through my bob monkouse autobiography - I can see the young monkhouse in some D sexpressions

thanks for the pictures, Paul - Darius looks great, hopefully if his neck is healing 20 hours is enough - I imagine night time in bed tbh would be the time when you need support, after all there is only 4 hours left for D not to wear it, he must take it off or PR and appearances(a couple of hours)

I am not into swing either, its only the darius effect that draws my interest - so if he wasnt in it...

glad it went well, BP

enjoyed seeing D on the show,

mm, is radio two the only thing based at that building? doesnt take long for us to be playing detective again- finding out what darius is up to does it..LOL
