Lol! You know, I originally wrote 'arenas', but then the Shea Stadium gig popped into my head so I changed it to 'stadiums' instead without realizing that they were supporting The Who during that tour. Whoops! My bad!

. Still, when you see that gig, I think one can be forgiven for thinking The Clash were the headliners given the huge response they were greeted with.

On a more related note, I find it hilarious that Wire can manage to text, but can't quite figure out how to Tweet. It's pretty much the samething!

I think that Nicky meant to send that to someone else.

Flint · #**1625** 05-10-2010, 10:08

Or an ordinary text gone wrong, I'd say.

Deets · #**1626** 05-10-2010, 10:09

why you're sure it was sent via text?

Dancing Kirby · #**1627** 05-10-2010, 10:14

And now we have to go through life not knowing what DVD he's talking about? What agony!

The Twitter website doesn't seem to show that bit of info but I'm using a Twitter client which shows that tidbit.

Probably best if we never do.

Napoleon Bonaparte · #**1632** 05-10-2010, 10:35

Maybe it was a promo copy of No Manifesto?

Nature's Discontent · #**1633** 05-10-2010, 10:49

It might just be a DVD of the Cambridge gig that someone made...?

EDIT: Sorry, I didn't see the 'call you later' part.

Maybe he's talking about the Postcards dvd. It has got him walking through snow trying to sing Some Kind Of Nothingness... Or maybe he's talking about a porno.
