Yeah I agree. There must have been loads of people from this forum there last night and it was a shame not to take advantage to meet some of them.

I thought I recognised Flaffer but couldnt be sure as I hadnt seem him since Trafalgar Square.
at rock bottom :wall:

I was wearing a black "Mutley Dog" T- Shirt and a pink 006 badge. In the cattle holding pen, I was leaning on the door at the front. :lol:

The only person I recognised because I'd met him before, was Agent Doris.
Flaffer, if you were the little guy with the cap, you ended up standing next to me just before we were sent downstairs. :lol:

I know the guy who came down from Inverness posts here, did you manage to get in in the end ? :?

yeah that was me, I clocked your t-shirt and thought it looked ace, I've always liked Mutley - shame everything was a bit last minute, we could have all hooked up beforehand
Still waiting to hear the Adam Freeland, Manhattan Clique and Axwell mixes of Integral.

Just read the Hammersmith thread discussing being searched .......

What did everyone think of the security at the BBC last night ???!! :shock: They had more X-ray equipment and scanners than Heathrow ! :lol: :shock:

I even had to remove my belt and run than through the machine because it kept setting off the metal detector ! :lol:

The BBC made a total hash of getting into the venue. While I accept the need for security, herding everyone around from room to room, keeping us there for ever, then prattling on about who should go in first (surely announcing number rows as we all had numbers stuck on on us!) was laughable.

Quite why it took so long to get 400 people into the venue is beyond me! Still other than that, it was great.
And you say you never believed in luck

There was a bit of a standoff with a few of the competition winners, a few had been told that their ticket was for them and a guest .... cue quite a bit of discussion with them and the stewards. :?
(I hope the guy from Scotland managed to get in, fair do's he'd been queueing since about 4pm. :shock: )

My mate managed to get in by the skin of his teeth after running from Oxford Circus tube station. All the seats were taken on the ground floor, but luckly the stewards managed to get him a place on the balcony. :lol:
Agent Buttocks and myself got there fairly late and also had a bit of trouble getting in...apparently too many tickets had been given out to competition winners (ho ho...!) and they were sturggling to find seats for others on the guestlist....Being on the guestlist ourselves, we had to wait until right at the very end to go into the hall and so we ended up in the back row. Was still an enjoyable night and a great view though... Glad they added in a few different songs to the tour.

Shame we didn't see you there to say 'hello' to, Redsock...Only person I recognised was dear old Doris... :wink:

Hi Trunk Guy! Hi Lee! (and hi every other likeminded person)

Tis Karen (from Blackpool)!!!

What a fantastic night it was. I spotted the back of our heads on the PSB website!! I hope i didn't look like too much of an imbecile with my over enthusiastic applause! :oops:

Can't wait to see them again. Maybe Newmarket will be my next outing from the Asylum!

It's on this Saturday (I think), not sure of the time though. Someone will know.

edit:
Or you can hear the full concert on Saturday 9 June at 2100.

Sorry, my head hurts.

I heard on radio 2 today there'll be a PSB concert airing on Saturday. I thought it'd be just a repeat of Cubism but I've just seen the picture text on the PSB website and only just noticed this thread.

When I asked Tenlow about a concert in the Integral thread he said there's not another concert... he must of thought I meant after this new one but I meant since Cubism...

When did this happen? :o :? :shock: :wall:

I'm guessing Photo No. 5 was taken during "Can you forgive her?".

Just to make sure everyone is aware that the show is being broadcast tonight at 8 and not 9 as originally scheduled.

I am out today but my Mac is set up with Audio Hijack timed to record the show.

Is anyone else recording it?

I will try and uplod it as soon as I can...
