Pearl UK Dates Summer 2008
 

From My Space...

As well as supporting Meat for most of the UK and Germany dates, Pearl's added some solo gigs on the nights in between:

July 5th at Barfly, Cambridge
July 8th at Barfly, Liverpool
July 10th at Barfly, Birmingham
July 12th at Fibbers, York

WOT????? No London???????????????

Nope, straight to Germany after these dates...Pearl's not supporting Meat in London though so I suppose she can go where she likes at that point rather than following him

:( considering the reception she got last time in london, i'm very dissapointed

that is disapointing...

I'd love to see Pearl live,
I've seen some videos on youtube and she is AWSOME!!!!

Saw her in london recently, she truly is awesome, she has grown as an artist so much, if anyone gets the chance to go see her you absolutely have to, guesse we will have to make do with seeing her open for Meat

Neil told me she is gonna be in Liverpool on 8th July but unfortunately i cant stay after the concert until then so i am gutted,but Neil and Jo are going so they can give me a full report..i relly would have liked to of made it myself though....

Believe it or not, the UK consists of more places than London!!!!!!!!!!

I know that hard to take in but its true!!!!!!!!!!!!

It means that.......SHOCK..............HORROR............... Londoners just might have to travel like the rest of us:shock::shock::shock:

Cambridge isn't that far from London.... whizz round the M25 and straight up the M11... no problem....

was that really called for???

for your information, we will be travelling a hell of a lot this summer, maybe to more shows than you maybe not, i dont give a flying feck. These londoners use up their babysitter credits on a regular basis and yes shock horror, we've travelled far to see many artists and wouldve to see Pearl last time if there was no london date, we even travelled to support Patti when no one could be bothered to jump in their cars to show her support, she's the buzz name right now but where was everyone when she needed the fans to show her the ML fans still loved her, nowhere!! I can count on one hand the people who turned up to either of the events we were at, so stick your lecture back in.

FYI I AM gutted there is no london date as i cant travel to one more show, i wouldve had to grovel for the one night the london gig would take, my babysitter said no to any more nights, she has a life too, it doesnt revolve around my ML travels although she does her best to help. And also fyi we will travle to see Pearl again if she comes back when we havent spent a fortune on hotels/travel/tickets on Meat already.

Alot of people travel more than us some dont but i'm not gonna post shit like you just did to those that dont, everyones situation is different, why the ~~~~ do people have to be so argumentative :bicker:


She seems to be getting a bit of a following over here barb, so hopefully she will be able to come back for a small tour of her own, her album is due out in Sept so hopefully we see some tour dates next year from her :pray: as i said seeing her recently she really has grown as an artist and put on one hell of a show. Oh and arent you a londoner too Barb?? Have you considered travelling?? Oh sorry like alot of us you already are ;)

I actually didnt know that claire, thought those dates would include an overnight, but it's certainly worth looking into. Thanks :))

It's about 50 miles further than me Anji.

just looked a the date Deb, it's the day after Meat's show at bath right? then it would def be a no from my babysitter :(
If you go you'll have to give me a detailed report Deb;)
Will sit and hope she comes back soon then :)

You don't say......really....well that's me told then.

Fortunately having just moved to London from the south coast I know about trains and motorways, all growed up me and I'm quite conversant with the need for travel as ticket stubs for most of the UK venues that Meat's played in the last 20yrs in this county will prove.

I am genuinely surprised that Pearl hasn't yet announced a London gig as the reception she got from her last one was excellent and as far as the south of England goes it's reasonably central for people to get to, got lots of them train station thingys you know. Fortunately I'm brave enough to be able to travel and will be seeing her open for Meat on more than one occasion...SHOCK..........HORROR......he's leaving London:shock::shock::shock:

just looked on the barfly website and there's no mention of Pearl playing Cambridge..however I don't go back til the 6th so it is definitely something I would consider going to if it could be arranged

I totally agree with all you said Anji, and yes i am a londoner..lol...its just a shame i have to come back from Liverpool by the 5th as i have a wedding to go to other wise i could stay,still im sure there will be another chance to see Pearl and i will jump at it..

Struth get off your friggin high horse will ya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

obviously you lot south of wherever have never heard of light humour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I travel, I have to have a babysitter and I have to pay for hotels JUST LIKE YOU!
My point being that people south of Watford gap tend to think it aint happening unless its within the M25, this is veiw shared by alot of "northerners" .
And Im NOT argumentative , Im one of the calmest, most laidback people I know:cool:

:twisted:

Time out folks.
Arguing over who is more willing and has the most resources to travel the most is hardly relative to the thread.

Pearl?
Remember her?


I'm personally looking forward to seeing her at Liverpool 8)

Whose arguing? Certainly not me.

Fortunately not by all "Northerners" as this "Northerner" will testify.

And with all due respect if it's humor you're injecting, lol or :mrgreen: goes a long way towards letting people know that......SHOCK...HORROR...:shock::shock::shock: doesn't convey

:twisted: Please tell me you're joking? :wtf:

OK, the next post is either about Pearl, or one of these :lock: get's put on the thread.

of course it was only me that thought it was uncalled for :roll:, btw you quoted a northener. I dont believe in speaking for all southerners, just for myself, and we work extra hard to be able to do what we do and go where we go.
I dont have a high horse btw, i have a car that cant seem to handle all mileage ;)

If you meant it in jest then fine, i back down, it came accross as a cheap shot to someone you know nothing about that's all ;)


I hope anyone close can get to see Pearl, i am gutted she was awesome when we saw her and is truly deserving of her own gig these days.

:twisted: OK, thread locked, then decided to open it again.

All is now said and done.

It was a joke ha ha ha very good.

Now can we get back onto the topic at hand please or this thread is gone for good.

Back on topic lol

Expect this...

Brilliant!!!!!!!!!

Anyone have a full string of pearl locations, other than just UK?

Pud :twisted:

Pud, check out her myspace, she posts all her gigs on there m8

http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm...0-a529a1fe9593

Cheers, I haven't been on myspace for some time. Nice to see her doing gigs outside of the US. Fact she's supporting Meat means that Patti won't be doing an opening set, which is a little disappointing to say the least.

Pud :twisted:

I was wondering when the first pun would be thrown out there. A Pun from Pud...but anyway

Yup, Bible And A Beer live is an awesome song but then again I'm just counting myself lucky that she's back.

No prizes for coming second :shock:

Pud :twisted:

except for female gratification

:twisted: Family forum gentlemen :bleh:

point taken...but it was still (reasonably) funny

:lol::lol: That's true especially after a drink :lmao::hic:

was talking to Pearl on Facebook...or at least i think it was Pearl...she was really nice for an albeit brief conversation.

She did say that she wouldn't be performing Killing Trend...which is disappointing as it's my fav song of hers but hey i'll live!:-)

You name dropper you!! As i said to John Barrowman the other day its a bad habit lol!!!

i'm sure i'll discuss that with Meat Loaf when i meet him at Bath...

The three of us could sit down and discuss at length!!

definitely!

I think we will be seeing Pearl at Fibbers York. We are driving back down to York the day after we have comeback from seeing Meat. She is well worth the drive back!!! Would have loved to have stayed overnight but family commitments and all that. The price of petrol it would probably have been cheaper;)LOL...

My niece thinks Bible and a Beer should be added as one of the encore songs since they usually perform non-Meat songs during the encore. I've seen Mercury Blues since the Just Havin' Fun tour and Black Betty since the Hair of the Dog tour, so it would be nice to see some different songs. Doubt it would happen, but we can dream.

meat would have to allow patti to sing bible and a beer solo imo for that to work and i cant see that for an encore, i'd rather the song wasnt compromised by meat and the band taking it on.

I think the band would do a good job with the song, but I can see what you mean about Patti singing that song solo. I agree with Pud and Monstro; it's a shame that Patti won't be singing any of her solo songs this summer because she has so many great ones.

i agree but i guess there wasnt time after the decision to return, either that or they were already locked in agreement for this other artist to do the opening.

trouble for meat now is:

Kasim does his own stuff
CC does her own stuff
Patti does her own stuff
Pearl does her own stuff.
John and Paul are working with a great new artist (i'm sure they'd love to showcase her)

who gets first dibs on opening??

i know who i'd like to see do the opening lol

From Pearl's My Space, The Barfly gig in Cambridge is now cancelled due to Barfly closing (good enough reason! :lol: ) and instead she'll be playing at the Academy in Oxford on July 5th

Killing Trend is my fave from the Broken Thorny Crown Album, but i do like a lot of her other stuff, i am just happy to see her perform live again. She was awesome at The Barfly in London:))

Speaking of Oxford...and yeah this is me speaking of oxford...is anyone thinking of going to this?

I'm kind of at a loose end after the Bath gig and am not travelling back til the Sunday from Liverpool...

According to MySpace, due to circumstances beyond Pearl's control the Oxford gig is cancelled too
