Not so much for his music output, but...I do understand, though, why our U.K. and European friends are still miffed over losing him to the U.S.--I feel your pain. TMDR never comes near enough for me, in Winnipeg, Canada, to see him in concert either, but oh well. Some day...maybe... But 25 YEARS and you haven't seen him live, Paul? Winge away, you've every right! :^) Work gets in the way of all the *important* stuff. ;^) And you know, several Canadians [hi, GhastlyCrackers!] have begged him to come here again [some of my fellow Canucks must have seen him in Whistler when he was recording "Forty: Live" though, right? :^)] but he seems to have no plans to come back, so I for one am giving it up for a lost cause. For now, anyway. Love and tea with lime [I'm permanently bored with lemon, okay? ;^)] Kar[m]a ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-alloy@smoe.org [mailto:owner-alloy@smoe.org] On Behalf Of > p1latham > Sent: Monday, December 04, 2006 4:04 AM > To: alloy@smoe.org > Subject: Alloy: Dolby in Europe - Please > > > Go on,I admit it,im jealous of you guys who have been getting to see Thomas > gigs in the US , some of you many times, but please spare a thought for us > long term fans who have still not managed to see him. > > Oh yes we had 2 opportunities in London this year - but only one solo gig - > and as I work for the Emergency Services there are heavy restrictions on > 'leave '(vacations) at peak summer times especially when working in a > holiday town.
