Wow. Firstly, its been over a week since I saw the lads at MSG and had the absolute pleasure of meeting all you "user names" in person and all I can say is that it was one of the best and most memorable times of my life. The show was Supernova. I saw them in Toronto too but the gig in NYC was without a doubt the best I've ever experienced. New York was absolutley MAD FER IT. The energy in the arena was indescribable...and the best part was that my floor seats in section 11 kicked major ass! I was all sour that I didn't get closer to the stage but we ended up on a riser with great sight lines! It was a 2 min. trot to the bar and the Champagne...of which I bought at least 10 off with the cherry being, I ended up back at my seat with 2 flutes, just as C.S was starting...to the envy of some girls behind me...god bless you ladies! Before the gig we met up with a lot of you at Mustang Harry's and it was so cool to be surrounded be such stellar fans and put a face to the names that I've seen online...the pints were flowing, the spirit was soaring, and Nicola U.K was as cute as I had imagined her... ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) After the show and the sing alongs in the washroom I shared with random peeps (Gas Panic being especially memorable) we headed up to B.B King's to catch Strawberry Fields lay it mutha fucking down! Wow. What a venue that is. I felt like at any minute Frank Sinatra was going to come out and regale us with the sweet sounds of yesteryear...it was a cabaret setting with lush velvety reds and cocktail tables. If anyone else was there, I was the guy with the beard and the green Lacoste shirt at the front of the stage going bonkers with every sweet song the band played...at one point..lol...the guitarest came downstage (theatre term) and literally played his guitar with my mouth...as in,...well...played his guitar with my mouth. I'm still laughing about that. New York is, without a doubt, the most kick ass city. It's expensive and kinda humid but it has everything...I'd love to move there just for the theatre alone. We had the pleasure of seeing Ethan Hawk in HURLY BURLY at 37 Arts theatre...next to Oasis it was THE highlite of our trip. Unbelievable acting, play and theatre. If any New Yorkers are reading this go check it out...and if you can afford it, splurge and get orchestra seating...3 hrs. of cracking entertainment. And then there's Kalas. Dude, you fucking rock. Thanks for putting that shit together at M. Harry's for all us ...it was awesome. I hope you have a blast in Manchester and I can't wait to hear how those gigs were...I can only imagine. Also, on a side note...there was a totaly hot brunette I met at M. Harry's. I can't remember your name but I believe you introduced me to webby when I first noticed your "Liveforever" t-shirt...would have liked to chatted with u more but beers were flowing and the chaos was all around...maybe next time. (My g/f thought you were cut too) And finally...drum roll please...WEBBY. What can I say...I remember your name but just in case you want to remain anonymous I'll refrain from mentioning. Thank you for all the work you do and thank you for all your passion...the t-shirt is tops...the site is pure class and your dedication to all of us fans is treasured. May you live long and feel love all your life my friend...the crown looks good on you...brings out shine behind your eyes. I bid you all adieu for now. I'm in the poor house again but I could give a rats ass. It was a trip I'll remember my entire lifetime and my only regret was that I didn't get to know more of you in person. But count on this. When they come back to New York...and they WILLl come back to New York...I will be there, there and then, with all of your within arms reach. "You were with me when I was gettin' high" Tim.

well fuck, i'm a bit teary eyed after that one and i didn't even go to msg... i chose boston cause it was gonna be a lot cheaper for me... my loss i guess, although boston did kick major ass.
i'd love to meet some of the people who's posts i read and enjoy and respect every day... i guess i'll start saving for the next NY gig.... lata

The Mash- I was the brunette in the live4ever baseball shirt. So if you are talking about me, I am quite flattered. Blushing a bit actually. I remember chatting with you briefly. Glad you had fun. See you at the next meet up for sure. I hopefully won't be the "t-shirt chick" and will be able to hang a bit more, drink and socialize. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

No trouble Mash! Its always good to meet people who are as big fans of Oasis (and The Beatles) as i am. I could not stop singing TUTS all night either! Got pissed in a pub the other night and they played DLBIA and I sang along with all my lungs. That had me singing Oasis all night. No doubt I wont be allowed back into that pub ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) Darkside, good to see ye got back home safely. Ye should visit Dublin for the next tour! No flying back the next morning though ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png)
