Extreme SMF Posts: 146 Location: Fareham Hampshire UK | Hi I'm up for this - I'm unable to make it to Manchester but I'll be there for Wolverhampton (and also London and Nottingham a couple of weeks later). As for spotting me - I'll be the guy in a wheelchair with the TS shirt on. (The shirt actually has lights but it doesn't work well in daylight!! but it's a great affect in the dark). Looking forward to meeting people and putting faces to names. Dave | ||

Nearly A Band Member Posts: 309 Location: Under the.... | The Sailisbury Ale house is a great rock pub to meet up in. It's more towards the city centre than the academy but an easy enough walk to the Academy. There are bars around the Academy too (plus the Uni next door as a cheap student bar). Any closer the the gigs we can organsie something. | ||

SMF 1st Class Posts: 27 | Well, we could meet up in the early afternoon, that gives every one plenty of time to arrive, and plenty of time to get to the venue, what time do doors open at manchester, can't remember? We will say a time closer to the date perhaps. | ||

Full-On SMF Posts: 51 Location: UK | would love to join you all for a pint. I will be going to Wolverhampton. But will have all my children in tow, so no pubs that day!!! ahghh No doubt my boys will be dressed like members of the band as they absolutley love TS. If any of you remeber mini Dee from the Manchester show back in November?? will be going to Rock city in Notts without the kids, so the wife and I can meet some of you in the Tap pub just around the corner. | ||

Full-On SMF Posts: 51 Location: UK | lizUK - 2006-05-03 10:25 AM We saw mini Dee in Manchester, very cute! I was very proud of him that night. It was his first ever gig and he did not know we were going to see Ts, He thought he was seeing Alice. It was a suprise for him as it was his 5th Birthday that day too. You could not bottle the look on his face when he saw the boys hit the stage. Priceless!!!! luckily we have the show so he can watch it over and over. he has been into their music since he was 2 years old and it ws not forced upon him. he used to go to bed watching the come out and play video every single night without fail. we are now initiating his brothers into the way with their first trip to see the band at wolverhampton (Please say hello to us if you see us. i am sure thomas will be dressed as dee again and the other two have decided they want to dress up like jay Jay and mark. ). then roll on Nottingham where the wife and i will be child free and rocking down the fron with the real SMfs. haha I do have some reservations about taking the kids to the shows not wanting to offend the band like I am coming across like a doting parent in the 70s taking their kids to see KISS like it was some sort of circus or pantomine. this is not the case they do actually love the music irrespective of their image. they are actually not that keen on Kiss, even though they are probably my biggest all time heroes. Or were until they bought in imposters!! i can now argue that for the energy thay cannot put a show on like TS , pyro and bombs aside. whilst i am on my soapbox i just managed to get the first ever Twisted Sister single "ill never Grow up" on TS records its nearly mint too. | ||

Ahhh, The Tap & Tumbler. I had many a good night in there years ago when I lived in Nottingham. We used to start off in the tap, down the road to Lord Byrons for a couple & then finish off in Fagins (when it used to be a rock pub). Then of course, off to rock city. Happy days. Rock-it. Are you going to the Manchester gig? | ||
