Well my rock stories are probably nowhere near Roy's... we were most of the time by "association" due to our then record label, which linked to some of these guys :-) during press release parties etc.. We were good lads actually and aside from a little drinking (and a lot of girls :-D) we weren't nearly as excessive... I do remember the first time Mötorhead came to Greece ahahahaa (Lemmy Kilminster is one hell of a nut job) we had some (hmmm a lot) of drinks with him (mind you we were young at the time so we really couldn't keep up...) but nonetheless we were most of the time their fans really instead of regarding ourselves as "fellow" musicians... (Greece IS a very small country and doesn't account for more than a *blip* on the English-speaking rock scene)... And I really regret not being able to meet Siouxsie Sioux (Big fan)..... :-( I for one would like to hear more stories about Nick Pynn (that's the correct spelling I think)... I bought a couple of cds a while back from Roy... man this guy can play ANYTHING (I may be hard rock but I don't mind some folk as well.. especially his kind ) > It is always a mite one sided with Roy as none of us have got >very near his experiences. I would love to hear the session. >One day, maybe Grandparents would allow you a few days off in the Summer >(8-)# He he, actually it would be so much easier to visit the UK than actually get to a North American QL show in the summer... especially now with the EasyJet specials... It costs less to visit the UK from Greece than it is to pay for my phone bill here !!! (Athens-Gatwick round trip less than 100 US$!) And well if everything goes well, my PhD will be in the Institute for Computer Science in Crete, Greece and that will mean the end of my stay in the US (hopefully... I do hate the cold you know :-) >-- > QBBS (QL fido BBS 2:257/67) +44(0)1442-828255 >mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.firshman.demon.co.uk > Voice: +44(0)1442-828254 Fax: +44(0)1442-828255 > TF Services, 29 Longfield Road, TRING, Herts, HP23 4DG
