Default Sitting Here !!

I'm in Manchester , in my room where I always am when not on a plane, bus or Dressing room when on tour . Always by myself . Except Frances IS always there even though I never see her or anyone .( I am going to see Star trek with Paul tomorrow, afternoon.)( Front page news) She is So great but then again so is the band and crew . It is a very strange day . It is the end of one era. Just getting on a different Highway . Did you know the first show we did in the UK was at the Manchester Apollo in 1978 , after we did "old Grey Whistle test" Then we went to London and played Hammersmith. "The NME REVIEW of the London show the next day was a 2 page headline "FAT OUT OF HELL" ACROSS 2 PAGES. I bet that guy is bald and out weighs me now by 6 stone now lol . His review, I don't remember him every talking about the music just about what we were all wearing and how big I was!! He called us "the worst band in the entire world". Which from that one line we got more press than you could imagine. When played Central Park in 1978 to the largest crowd they had have ever had ( at that time) There was more press from all over the world because of the NME review. ( so Thank You NME) Don't know what my point is here I just feel very strange. I know at times On this site , I have gotten angry, said things I should have never said to some of you ! Please except my apology .
I guess I just want you to know I know where my real friends are and I really love you all !! I guess this is my way of saying THANK YOU SO MUCH !! by the way . They are giving Jimmy a doctorate/degree from Amherst this week. I joked with him ater Nottingham I got an Honorary degree from Middle
Tennessee State College. I guess there was no point to all this except to say I love you !!

Aw Meat, personally, no need to apologise to me, but if it means anything to you, it's accepted :)

Star Trek - BRILLIANT movie, I loved it.

I'm feeling very odd too, hard to say how, and would be totally different to you. Very emotional.

Thanks for giving me the time of my life doing what you do Meat :)

See you on Saturday...

Aaaw Meat, we love you too.

We all say things that we regret occasionally but true friends are there for us, through thick and thin because that is what friends do.

Enjoy your film tomorrow.

Meat
Strange days for us too .. and a highway we want to stay on with you Meat I'm reminded of the woman who'd seen you for the first time at Cardiff this tour and said "I've never seen and felt such a wall of love coming from all round an arena all aimed at one man standing on a stage!!"

I replied "And you'll never have seen such a wall of love coming from one man on stage aimed at those who follow him!"

There's always a point in saying "I love you!!" So ... backatcha to the power of 10
