Do you mean ‘a northerner in London’ or just ‘a northerner’?Tentenlad wrote: Tue 23 Apr 2024, 10:35 am I am going to the event in Manchester on Friday, any suggestions for a question to ask (should I get the chance)
I was going to ask ‘Is being a northerner like being an east end boy in a west end world?’
But now it sounds pretentious.

"When will you release A Man From The Future?"
"Why don't you release live recordings/concerts like Hacienda, Creamfields, BBC with Johnny Marr etc?"
"When will we hear the songs by Neil from the 1970s?"

I dare you to ask them how they first met and where they got the name from.

Re: An evening with the Pet Shop Boys and album preview
I don't understand why interesting questions weren't asked. 
Dreamworld BluRay Release Date?
Loneliness Mixes?
Concert Re-Releases on BluRay (Cubism/Pandemonium)?
Disco 5 Release Date?

Does sound a bit pretentious yes lol. I wanted to ask about the tracks not released as singles, if felt a missed opportunity or regret eg Shameless, Decide, Miserablism?Tentenlad wrote: Tue 23 Apr 2024, 10:35 am I am going to the event in Manchester on Friday, any suggestions for a question to ask (should I get the chance)

Or be interesting to hear what their Berlin apartment’s like? Or does Chris miss his old flat (as featured in Elle)?
(You know, the more interesting, revealing questions, not stuff we’ve heard hundreds of times lol).

I thought some of the fan questions were very poor and lame. A missed opportunity. Hopefully Manchester will have more interesting questions and answers.

Re: An evening with the Pet Shop Boys and album preview
Hiya (first proper post, be gentle!!) that was my question about the decline of the print media/music press (still hanging on by my fingertips here) - my heart was in my mouth when Neil sighed and said 'it happened' and I thought that would be it, but was delighted when he expounded and bounced it onto Chris not reading any reviews/not being guided by them.
I thought the Patricia Routledge and Alan Bennett idea was hilarious.
I think for Chris, much as I love him, asking a question that will only elicit a yes/no answer is futile!

Is you relationship as close friends or as work colleagues?
Is Chris' role to keep Neil humble and grounded?
Has Chris really got a 12" plonker?

I assumed if you purchased the livestream event that you could rewatch it at your own leisure.. Looks like I can't do this..

The email said that all livestream viewers would get a recording sent to them, which could be watched within a fortnight.y3potential wrote: Tue 23 Apr 2024, 1:51 pm I assumed if you purchased the livestream event that you could rewatch it at your own leisure.. Looks like I can't do this..
