His last gig here was on an album tour as well and it was excellent - I'll be buying tickets within seconds of them going on (pre)sale!

No way it will be $100....

In any event, do I really want to pay good money to see an ageing, bitter, twisted old man whose voice is a long way past it's prime and who is living off the glory of a piece of work he did over 30 years ago .....hmmmm you betcha

regards, Trevor
