Jeez did I really have to write "Imagine if this was about a band that [a lot of] people [on here] were actually excited about."?

What do you bribe them with? Wit and repartee or cold hard.. promotional opportunities.

Or do you just ask somone 'any chance of tix mate?'

[Skoo]

Well Neil has gone from denying the existence of a secret Foos show in Frome, to possibly getting himself tickets. So that's a turn up for the books.

that, pretty much.

I mentioned to someone i was trying the glasto route, who said they might be able to sort as they'd been offered them already.

Its not impossible that i'm being wound up, tho.

i didn't deny it, i just felt there was too much of adding 2+2 and getting 5.

[VolumetricFox]

Just remember if it doesn't work out, that the cheese and grain logo is basically us all being given the finger.

Not to put words in your mouth but you definitely said there was more chance of this being in Italy.

I know you never give definitive responses so that you can always say 'I never ruled it out' but you were very much on the side of a secret gig not happening.

It is based on the windows outside, but for the purposes of the thread lets say its an obelisk !

You could have, but my reply would've been the same.

to be fair anyone who lives local to Frome would tell you there's more chance of them playing on Mars than at the cheese n grain!

that's true - because two italy references suggest italy much more than three random letters suggest a tiny venue in frome.

less that, and much MUCH more that a meaningless 'cag' was unlikely to mean a tiny venue in frome.

There is clearly something going on, but what is still only guesses.
