Do you guys fancy a trip to London? - how come us Brits don't get a visit?

Graham, I'll be there the first week in May for the Cream reunion. Were you at the Dallas show last weekend?

Hi Mike - I spent 6 hours on the phone and internet when the Cream tickets went on sale and was out of luck!! So that's a bit of a sore point at the moment especially when my neighbour came round to tell me he'd been given a ticket in the BBC box at the Albert Hall!! And another sore point - I wasn't at the Dallas show....I had to work that weekend!! Still I hope to get to Arlington later in the year.

Graham -- I did too!!! Except I had to start phoning at 2am, my time! It was horrible and my friend ended up getting a couple, so I lucked out. Keep checking though -- they released some tickets yesterday for the Thursday show and I think more are to come, all unnannounced. In fact...hell, I'll go to another one if you can get 'em. Let me know if you are availiable for a pint!

I will do Mike......I have to share something with you, which made me smile. A friends wife phoned for tickets and got through after 15 minutes. She was told that the tickets were £75 or something and got her credit card ready. The operator mentioned they were standing. She said "I'd better check with my husband and phone you back".......she never got through again!!! I won't tell you what my friend said to her.............

Unbeliveable! I will have to pass that on to everyone that waited, like us, on the phone for 3498754 hours. Thoses tickets are now scalping in the US for $1800 each. Don't tell him! I have very little time in London and would not be able to attend any funerals.

Mike - I just called the Albert Hall and asked about the extra tickets.......she said "I've just sold the last two"................"I'm down (I'm really down)....I'm down (down on the ground).......I'm down (I'm really down).........how can you laugh when you know I'm down?............sorry wrong band!

Jeff,
We have the meeting room at Signature Inn from 5pm till 11pm both days, 5/13 and 5/14. Obviously some of us will be there earlier and throughout the weekend. If you can come for Friday, I'd highly recommend it!

Will there be any surprise guests on Friday?

You mean besides Squire, Lee and Quaife? ...I suggest you come and find out!
