[kj] 3rd of Oct Liverpool Gig Report !!!

[gathering@misera.net]

Jane and everyone going to the Manchester show, 

Damn, nursing a headache this morning (off today) and can't drink tonight as 
I'm working in London this week and have to get a 7 o'clock train tomorrow...

OK, I'm not gonna miss the shorts and glittery leggings hopefully ;) I didn't 
see you on any of Brian's photos as far as I can tell (have you seen them?). 
Anyway, as I won't be wearing my glasses, please forgive me if I don't 
recognise anyone, but here's what me and the wife look like, so let on if you 
see us before we see you, and shout loud 'cos I may have ear-plugs in!

I want to wear my Extremeties shirt again, but it had been left in a drawer for 
years and made me itch to death when I wore it on Friday, so it's scheduled for 
a very gentle hand-wash (as it's so thin now, it's almost transparent). I have 
considered wearing my prized black Joke t-shirt from the Revelations days but 
it's just too thin and too small now! Whatever, I'll be wearing all-black so 
you'll easily recognise me ;) 

See you all later,

Darrin
