Yeah I think a lot of people didn't notice the little bangs going off at the foot of the castle. And of course the 'barrier' folks don't see fireworks

That's brilliant! You came across grand. I won their greatest hits on Phantom a few years back and was on air for a few mins too, but yours was way better. Nice one!

Great photos. Thanks for posting them.

Interesting that Nicky has a Thailand flag patch and an Indonesia flag patch - the first I can understand, of course, but when were the band last in Indonesia? Or was it a gift from a fan?

Well done. It must have a little nerve wracking when she said she was going to quiz you! But those questions were pretty easy (phew!)

Hey hillgrove, I just took a still from the barely standard-def BBC red button TV coverage I recorded, which is why it's so low-res, then processed it to look like it does.

Ha! I only read this now. Fab framedadolescence! I think you encapsulated the experience perfectly. I like the inclusion of some of the more whimsical photos too!

Saw the BBC footage and they sounded just fine. No idea what some of you are bitching about. Maybe if you only got to see them live once every decade, you'd learn to appreciate them a little more. Just saying.

I should also admit I don't recognise resistance after a few shots. I do believe I also thought pineapple wanted to us to go and get her back from the hotel Thankfully I then realised she meant for breakfast
