Bryan Adams is due to headline..... If the Dels were to appear (haven't they supported him before) as it has been suggested they may do some summer festivals then I'm not entirely sure I'd want to go - the event was appallingly organised last time. The social side was great though, 20 Del fans versus 30000 Corrs fans. :o) Hilary ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 21 Feb 2001 23:45:55 +0000 (GMT) From: Kevin Cawthorne Subject: Re: OV: City in The Park well i for one would go just for the chance to see a live concert. I quite like Bryan Adam's new stuff so i'm sure i could get over the shock of standing for 97 hours with no loo, food or fags, sorry US'ers, slang for ciggies, damn another slang word. ...now if only this bloody new site would be finished next week i may get some sleep!

What's he on, for goodness sake?!?! :-)) Jane (who's just looked it up - according to the OED it's the study chronology by means of annual growth rings in timber!) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Join us for our weekly chat - 9pm GMT Thursdays (now with voice) on http://www.delamitri.co.uk/~janea/chat.html Please note my new URL: http://www.delamitri.co.uk/~janea Del Amitri Pages: http://www.delamitri.co.uk/~janea/Delpage.html Join The Devlins Mailing List: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/thedevlins/join ICQ # 34643730 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 22 Feb 2001 09:28:09 -0000 From: Hopping James W Subject: OV: Nifty little site! The link below is to my mates acoustic band that plays cover versions in pubs and clubs. He designed the site himself from his bedroom so taking this into acount it is pretty impressive! Any one who sees them advertised please go and support them and keep music live! I don't think that they do any Dels stuff but I can always twist his arm next time I see him. They are all excellent musicians and try to have fun while playing so please support them!
