Paul Weller last night at Donny Dome.

Amazing, on stage for 2.5 hours and brilliant! He is still the coolest man on the planet.

 

In between swearing on Saturday you admitted to having his poster on your bedroom wall!!

 

He's my dream man; I have his pics at work, on my car roof and in every room at home; I also have billboards of him on my garden walls...he's alongside Craig Hignett, my other hero.

P.s, I never swear.

 

fancied going myself but was toldit was a poor venue so dint</p>

go . boy do i regret not going  </p>

 

i didnt go for that exact reason, donny dome is *****. i saw kings of leon there in the summer and thought i was gonna die from the heat! bloke at work went and said exactly the same about last night. also said weller was immense which is no surprise! seen him twice and hes just mind blowing. top man!

 

Being a bit older than you....

I met the man himself a few times....sound checks for Jam concerts and the like.

When Style Council played in Sheffield I met him and he invited me up to Newcastle 'cos they were appearing on The Tube. Trouble was I was skint having just bought tickets to see them at The Royal Albert Hall and coach fair down.

Didn't get to go :-| Royal Albert Hall concert was a beauty ..... took the sleeping bag 'cos I was skint and before the concert climbed over the fence into a park to dump it for picking up later.....after the concert went back into the park and a cop fan came screaming up ..... the park was the garden of one of the Royal residencies !!!

Went back to Victoria and slept rough, the doorway of the British Caladonian Office had a rubber floor which was warmer.....trouble is the office opend at 6 am and they kicked me out of the way.....slept well on the National Express coach coming home..................!

 

RE: Being a bit older than you....

now thats rock and roll mr!
one of my best mates is in a band down in london and their manager is the bloke who found and managed the jam. weller just keeps popping in when they're practicing. my mate keeps ballsing up cos he get so nervous. hes even got up and jammed (no pun intended) with em. hes mates with suggs too cos the manager had something to do with madness so he keeps getting on stage and dancing too!
hopefully some freebies coming my way!

 

RE: Being a bit older than you....
