A truly magical moment ACK! Does anyone happen to have this taped? Innit that one of them shows that is being released as a 'best of'? Too bad "Ocean Rain" didn't make the list IIRC! ====================================== http://www.bunnymenlist.com ====================================== ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 7 Nov 2002 14:33:11 -0000 From: "Noose Boy" Subject: seven-seas OT: Centipede (Joke) This guy was lonely and so he decided life would be more fun if he had a pet. So he went to the pet store and told the owner that he wanted to buy an unusual pet. After some discussion, he finally bought a centipede, which came in a little white box to use for his house. He took the box back home, found a good location for the box, and decided he would start off by taking his new pet to the bar to have a drink. Would you like to go to Frank's with me and have a beer?" But there was no answer from his new pet. This bothered him a bit, but he waited a few minutes and then asked him again, "How about going to the bar and having a drink with me?" But again, there was no answer from his new friend and pet. So he waited a few minutes more, thinking about the situation. He decided to ask him one more time; this time putting his face up against the centipede's house and shouting, "Hey, in there! Would you like to go to Frank's place and have a drink with me?" Scroll down!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAIT! YOU ARE GOING TO LOVE THIS! A little voice came out of the box: "I heard you the first time! I'm putting my f * * king shoes on." ====================================== http://www.bunnymenlist.com ====================================== ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 7 Nov 2002 14:56:16 +0000 From: Subject: Re: seven-seas OT: Centipede (Joke) & Morrissey thanks Raj --- I loved that !! :-) & BTW Morrissey was a good ;-) - met some other bunny fans there too! --- did ya have a good time Martyn -- it was 2am by the time we got back to portsmouth nut the LOVELY guard let us go & kip in FIRST class!! mmm setlist zap?? unsure cos i aint got that sort of memory but i'll get together with a "friend" & post what we can remember!!- later looloo _______________________________________________________________________ Freeserve AnyTime, only #13.99 per month with one month's FREE trial!

Got back about 1pm, Loo, thanks to a lift from Pete (Tebbutt, spinster of this list), as I would have missed my last train home if I had stayed to the end, and had to use public transport. Sorry you were hassled by that couple for the heinious crime of DANCING at a concert! Bloody outrageous twats. The setlist was as listed below(taken from the morrissey-solo.com website) and is basically the same as the other gigs he's done on this tour. I Want The One I Can't Have / Suedehead / Little Man, What Now? / Hairdresser On Fire / Speedway / The World Is Full Of Crashing Bores / The First Of The Gang To Die / Jack The Ripper / Everyday Is Like Sunday / I Like You / Alsatian Cousin / Sister I'm A Poet / Meat Is Murder / November Spawned A Monster / Hand In Glove / Irish Blood, English Heart // There Is A Light That Never Goes Out It was an excellent gig. First time I'd seen Mozzer solo live, although I was lucky enough to see The Smiths half a dozen times. He thickened up a bit in the intervening 15 years(and why not?!), but that is not to call him anything other than a slim middle aged man. Bit surprised at how his 'no-neck' pose that he constantly struck. Also bit surprised by him wearing joggers. He used to be so dapper! Hearing 'There Is A Light That Never Goes Out' live again was fantastic. Always in my all time top 5. If only Joy had been in my arms at the time, as I consider it our song. All say Ahhhhhhhh! Whilst waiting for Loo and half a dozen others to arrive at the pub, a guy came up and said 'Weren't you at the Bunnymen gig at Shepherds Bush?' Turns out I chatted with him before the gig. I could barely remember, so that must have been another good session!! Cheers Martyn PS A biker stops by the Harley shop to have his bike fixed. They couldn't do it while he waited, so he said he didn't live far and would just walk home. On the way home he stopped at the hardware store and bought a bucket and an anvil. He stopped by the feed store/livestock dealer and picked up a couple of chickens and a goose. However, he now had a problem: how to carry all of his purchases home. The owner said, "Why don't you put the anvil in the bucket, carry the bucket in one hand, put a chicken under each arm and carry the goose in your other hand?" "Hey, thanks!" the biker said, and out the door he went. But in the parking lot he was approached by a little old lady who told him she was lost. She asked, "Can you tell me how to get to 1603 Mockingbird Lane?" The biker said, "Well, as a matter of fact, I live at 1616 Mockingbird Lane. Let's take my short cut and go down this alley. We'll be there in no time." The little old lady looked him over cautiously, then said, "I am a lonely widow without a husband to defend me. How do I know that when we get in the alley you won't hold me up against the wall, pull up my skirt, and ravish me?" The biker said, "Holy smokes, lady! I am carrying a bucket, an anvil, two chickens, and a goose. How in the world could I possibly hold you up against the wall and do that?" The lady said, "Set the goose down, cover him with the bucket, put the anvil on top of the bucket, and I'll hold the chickens." And no comments about me recently becoming a biker, and fancing grannies, please!! You know who you are!!!!!!!!!!!! ====================================== http://www.bunnymenlist.com ====================================== ------------------------------ End of seven-seas-digest V1 #15 *******************************
