And then spent the night arguing with the gig promoter for his fee. -------------------- They spent the evening watching a television programme in which the panel tried to guess what day it was.

And the audience all expected to see The Clash. -------------------- They spent the evening watching a television programme in which the panel tried to guess what day it was.

� There is a very clear and in-depth gig review here�

I always wondered what FallFanDave's prose would look like if he tried to write sentences. Stick to the random words and then you look like you are doing the steam of consciousness thang.

P.S There's a review of the German gig to automatically translate into English if you look on Google

--------------------

""I say, erm, I think we are not just, what you call, underdogs, we are massh-ive underdogs."
Steve McClaren.

"They have an engine called the Press whereby the people are deceived."
C. S. Lewis That Hideous Strength

"Each [tradition] is led by a Grimas, or leader; in adjectival form 'grimo' = "wrinkled, wizened" or poor, wretched."
Zingarelli-Zanichelli, 1977:777

I hope the translation will be done soon Welcome to one another Moscow gig digital photos! : http://photofile.ru/default/do.php?sp=1969...3604556&np=y#sc (enough of pretty Elenor Poulou!) Another ones (by my friends) are coming soon too!

glad to see the russians love mes.

Glad to read such words too! I know Fall (as deep as it can be to the russian) since 1993... (and I'm 34) Thanks to J Peel broadcasts! BBC has played the big role on my musical taste though... also I've learned english with its help by the way! Thanks to some Fall fans from this board, I have plenty of Fall stuff now! The World is so interesting as long as it has clever people all around... Thank it! Thank you!

There is a very clear and in-depth gig review here

I wonder who's an author at last! Is it our Russian journalist - Aleksander Gorbachev (as it indicated)? Am I right? And who's make the english version then? Don't understand....
