AM1 Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 [quote name='EBS_freak' post='499444' date='May 27 2009, 11:08 PM']Fair play to you dude, sorry if there was a misunderstanding but it did read a bit odd. Anyway, the Take That show is a really good experience. If anybody was thinking of poo pooing it because they are a boy band, then they should take a peak, there is some really top playing and arrangements going on.[/quote] +1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your Queen ones were great. Have fun. For what its worth we are now doing 4 Take That songs in our set and they seem to be very popular (especially with the Ladies;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take that seem to have matured now and seem to appeal to broader spectrum of people. Even i like them now :-) Im more interested in the equipment/back stage etc rather than seeing the guys but i can understand the ban. Keep us posted and have a great time.

molan Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Sounds like a cool gig to be involved with! I certainly interpreted it that you were on the tech side from the outset as well Definitely interested to hear more (so long as no journos from the Sun are listening. . .).

The Funk Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 I'm not a fan of Take That but I'd love to learn every pro trick they use live. They seem very professional and very together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesparky Posted June 19, 2009 Author Share Posted June 19, 2009 (edited) FYI, All going well. I'll post some pics at the end of the tour (i don't want to ruffle any management feathers mid-tour). In a nutshell it's wet, oh so very, very wet - i just long to work a gig with a roof again - far too much rain. It's been a long time since i've been soaked this much so regularly. Factoid: The tour will also apparently use 20% of the nations Helium stocks, which has pushed the price up! (so i've been told). We've also had the joy of a bus crash (truck intentionally cut us up and mashed up the front of our sleeper bus - Not at all as bad as it sounds, all ok though, and we were picked up by another of our tour busses following us). I've never seen so many women in one place at a time either, talk about being intimidated - however the highlight is watching the daily race of the crowd racing and sprinting desperately to get to the front row at the barrier when the doors open. I know it maybe a bit mean to find it amusing, but in my twisted little mind it is...

molan Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 I was involved in sponsoring one of TT's tours (first one post Robbie I think) and we got a batch of comp tickets so I took my daughters. I've never seen / heard so many young girls losing control in one place at the same time. One teenage girl near us quite literally wet herself when they came on! The thing that got me was how many of the mums were all dolled up & really going hell for leather as well - definitely a bit intimidating, lol.
