I had my first ever asthma attack! I don’t necessarily blame you guys or the venue. But I’m never going to watch your band again… without an inhaler handy.

Slowy, fancy some company?
Hell yeah Boss Man! Want me to pick you up? It will be the middle of winter....

For anyone in proximity on the day, this will be an Event. Come along. The music is great but the real entertainment is watching every beautiful woman in the room fall at Strummer's feet. :rofl:
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

If my roster allows, I'll make it down to decrease the average attendee age by a few years (and the average prostate volume by a few mL).

Your sacrifice will be applauded. I do tend to mess with desirable averages.

Banned. That despicable asshole was my childhood hero. Even today, I feel sullied and dirty. I do not appreciate this at all.

To be fair Bruce, I think you attended on an exceptional evening.... if my memory serves me .. two recovery room nurses (one who'm Id previously dated, and one whom I was yet to date) decided it would be fun to swap undergarments on the dance floor. Be very clear, this was definitely and outlier event in the otherwise underwhelming landscape of my lovelife! But its funny you recall it . I still think about it from time to time :crazy:

Rob, will you be offering volume checks at the door?
Rob, sadly, youll find you are older than the average dive bar attendee in Kingsland by a decade so put that in your prostate and smoke it. The NZG guitar elders will be esteemed guests of the band and not segregated by gland volume!

I'm sure you protest too much. And it's not at all funny I recall it. I'm still a man and the event was spectacular! I'd follow the Surfers anywhere in the hope of a repeat. :rofl:

When the manager of the bar told you that he'd be doing volume checks throughout the night, I don't think that's what he was referring to.
