Newcastle - Divine Comedy gig

kooldave · 22-09-2006

Anyone else going to see Divine Comedy supported by Duke?? I am

aarons · 22-09-2006

More then likely and if the DC are crap i'll go home only going for Duke.

**Stephen** · 22-09-2006

Oh, Divine Comedy won't be crap

thesneakybandit · 23-09-2006

the last divine comedy gig i was at was one of the best live performances i've ever been at... duke special supporting is a bonus!

kooldave · 23-09-2006

Divine Comedy are supposedly mint my brothers a fan said id go with glad Duke is supporting though.

very_special · 23-09-2006

Neil Hannon will not disappoint. As Sneaky says, having the Duke supporting is but a bonus.

Sneaky, you wouldn't by any chance be referring to their 'last gig' (as the original line up) in the Mandela Hall in Nov 2001?

Or did you catch him on the 'Absent Friends' tour?

Got 2 tickets last week in Durham.
Don't know who I'm going with yet but I'll be there.
Wouldn't miss it for anything.
Mattchoo - see you there but I'll only recognise you if you wear that cream beanie hat again! Please say hello though.
Where's Ian?

I'll say hello, sadly the cream beanie wont be making an appearance as it got stolen in a nightclub off a drunken girl. I was not best pleased! Haha. Ian will be there in attendance, i think im meeting him there at some point.

Divine Comedy are supposed to be excellent live! I cant wait to go... just a matter of trying to get time off work and figuring out which venue... Cork is closer but Dublin will be more fun

Ah shame!
RIP the cream beanie!
This gig's in the Bassment so there should be hundreds there.

Ian · 16-10-2006

HELLO!!!

Yes I shall be there!!! I can't wait. It'll be the most exciting thing in the world to have happened, ever, in October 2006, in Newcastle University. I guarantee it.

If anyone else needs a ticket, get in touch, I have a spare. Face value and all that.

Lots of love
Ian

jan · 16-10-2006

That's great Ian

Don't forget to say 'Hello' this time.
Jan xx

Ian · 17-10-2006

ah my ticket has now been snapped up. i knew someone would go. matt's not going now cos he's putting university studies before the duke! i think that's terrible.

i'll say hello and more when i see you! haha. if you see me, don't be afraid of whacking me and alerting me that you've spotted me, as chances are i'll forget, because I'm an idiot.

Ian,
I would say that Matt's excuse is pure pants!
Isn't it half-term or something.
Not in the habit of hitting people but if that's what it takes...........

Now where's that lump hammer......?

Ian · 17-10-2006

we dont really get half-term at uni! but matt should realise that his future lies with watching the duke and not making movies and the likes. he's too ambitious that lad! he should be content with watching some top notch live entertainment!

jan · 18-10-2006

Ah sorry Ian :? It's about a hundred years since I was on the receiving end of higher education and I'm sure we had half-term breaks!
Very much looking forward to 24th and getting my new CDs.

Welcome to the Duke forum Geordie!

Thanks for the video clip posting - that's a nice little montage and I know what to expect at the Roundhouse gig now!

jan · 19-10-2006

Nice to have you with us Geordie.
Confession........I've been on TDC forum and you're a lovely friendly lot over there too....just like Duke fans!
Say hello if you see me at the gig on Tuesday.
Won't be wearing a pink carnation but I'm middle-aged, fat and white of hair (on the outside). I'll be with my bairn Gilly who is none of the above!
Can't wait! It's going to be a fantastic gig
