A cracking read, as always. Thanks for sharing that.

Well, I'm certainly going to enjoy that when I get time to read it in full, but putting on my Pedant's Bonnet for a sec, I'll note that one of your opening statements about this being the first Frost*mas gig not to be at the The Peel isn't quite true. Not, in fact, it's not even slightly true  8-)

I'm pretty sure that the 2010 edition was at the O2 in Islington, not out in Kingston, with Ark in support. Indeed, I remember the gig well and the venue itself was brought home when I stumbled over it yesterday, making a brief detour into the Sainsbury's (for Marmite, naturally) across the road from it, before getting on the tube at Angel en-route to London City.

(Speaking of which, I'm pretty sure I saw Steve Harris from the Paul Menel Band in the lounge at City yesterday, but thought better of doorstepping him with my laptop showing a picture I took of him at De Boerderij recently ;-))

Oh, and on the off-chance (ha!) the the cheery antipodean who was in the Sainsbury's check-out queue behind me is also a Frost*ie, Marmite is bloody well not a poor-man's Vegemite. Don't get me started on the defence of Marmite ...  :evil:

Whilst this is true, and I was there also - it's not offically Frost*mas when it's part of a bigger tour. Yep, those are my rules and I'm sticking to them...

Hmmm ... not sure about playing games where the regulations are held in secret ...  

So, according to the King James Rule Book, how many Frost*masses have we had then? Just the three: 2008 at The Peel, the Giggus Mirabilis, 2011 again at The Peel, the Giggus Almightysquashus, and this year at the Scala, the Giggus Septuagintaminutus?

Well, all I can say is that we need more of them, not less ... !

(Separately, just to show how we like our traditions, RH, Sawtooth, and I did partake of a post-gig curry just around the corner from the venue, and surprisingly good it was too, considering the location and time of night. And under our secret accounting rules [available on request; please send an SAE to Mr Frost*MoneyTrumpetArse of Birmingham]), we all emerged solvent and still good friends ;-))

Top writing mate, I had a lovely time

Far too drunk thou...

Very good review indeed. A joy to read.

So much excitement that two rather over-eager and possibly well-lubricated chaps a couple of rows behind me start bouncing around all over the place, falling into people and knocking drinks flying

Ah, yes, those two. I was right next to them. My arm got pretty sore from their friction, but I was determined to stay put. :twisted:

Do we know who they were?

No, the guy next to me was getting pretty p/$$3d off with them, it wasn't you was it?

I think I maintained my cool very well, so hopefully not... :mrgreen:
