After almost 20 years as a fan i finally met Neil last night!!

I had been out for lunch with my girlfriend and after a very long and boozy lunch we went and mate a mate of ours. Anyway, to cut a long story short he told us for the first time that he was gay. Needless to say we were both very happy for him, and had suspected it for a while now. So he asked us to go to Heaven with him and his new chap which we did. We were in some VIP area and who did i see across the room but Neil and Chris!!

Chris now has short hair and was chatting away with people. After about half an hour of us getting there (probably about 1am) he left but Neil was still there chatting with people. So i went over and spoke with him for about twenty minutes. He was a really lovely guy, very polite and put up with my (very) drunken ramblings!!

Anyway, he also confirmed that Im with Stupid goes to radio next week and that there will be a tour "later in the year".

So that's it, but thought i would share that with y'all. Really top bloke!!

Sounds like a great night! I'd love to get the chance to have a word or two with N&C. Closest I got was the Tower signing, which was very short & sweet. Mitch saw to the converyor belt fashion of signing!

I'm glad Chris has short hair now.

I'd have to be really pissed to be able to chat with them, only muttered a few words at the "Release" signing. Apart from future psb events/rumours I'd struggle to think of stuff to say as our lives are so different!!

Does this mean that Chris is also gay?

Can't wait for the single to be released. Thanks for sharing this with us.

If the single is only out on the 8th of May why send the promos out so early?

This happens more and more, why beats me. Sometimes I like a song but heard it so much already I won't go and buy it.

But it could also mean a different release date.

Great experience...thanks for sharing.

I just noticed the Official Site says it will announce some Summer tour dates soon, including festivals.

If it was out on the 8th of April then yeah, but 8th May?...I suppose it just means it'll leak earlier, lol o_O

A good question would have been if EMI was going to make a good promotion of the album or not and if they think their songs are going to be played on Radio 1. But anyway, congratulations

Wouldn't be surprised to see the video air exclusively on Channel4 either, especially as they are broadcasting the documentary.
