Where are you going tonight?

[Bruce Rioja]

Pre-interval was average, I thought, but it livened up considerably after the break and turned into an excellent show well worth going to. Star of the show for me was David Birrell as Ezra Fitton, the brides father. He has all the best lines and played the part to a T. Also worth mentioning is Akshay Gulari on his acting debut. He didn't have much to do but we had our eyes on him and he did it very well. Star of the future!

I was surprised the place wasn't full with it being a well known local play but on a Saturday night it was 75% at best. And it was red hot in there. One woman in front of us left part way through the second half looking decidedly unwell and I felt poorly myself too.

Someone had a bright idea to add a row of old dining chairs, high backed wooden ones with straight back and vinyl seats, to the front of the fitted seating to give an extra row and make the place look like the 1960's I suppose. It was a very bad idea and everyone sat in those seats looked very uncomfortable throughout. If your ticket is for row D, unlucky!

Good season opener though and I enjoyed it very much.

Landed a last minute complimentary last night. Have to agree with all you say there, Clapton (with the exception of Ezra Fitton being the bride's father ) Strange that it was only 75% full on Friday though as it was pretty much a full house last night. And yes, it's way too hot in there. They could save themselves some money there.

So glad that we didn't land Row D seats. Very awkward and most undoubtedly uncomfortable for a 2 & 1/2 hour play.

Brilliant performances both David Birrell and Barbara Drennan as Erza and Lucy Fitton.

The second half is without a doubt the funniest thing I've seen to date at The Octagon.

I'm due to see it again on Friday and, if anything, am really looking forward to doing so.

Last night, Yankee Stadium to watch the FOOTBALL



to watch NYCFC v Toronto. Jozy Altidore played (out wide!) and nutmegged a guy once, but apart from that was woeful and spent most of the time moaning at players around him.

Lampard scored the shittest goal of all time and missed a similar one in the second half. Pirlo was rubbish, barely moved from the centre circle and was still MoTM. Some amazing passing when he looked arsed.

Michael Bradley wanted to dribble past everybody and took every set piece and looked like he was someone who did that at school to everyone's chagrin.

NYCFC keeper is listed under 'camera-saves' in the dictionary. Stop punching it in front of goal man.

Did you ever see Ivanhoe play down there?

[2399]

No I haven't.

South lost 1-2...

and I got given a Barcelona Top which I cracked it and upset me Mum!
(Before she went I made sure to say not to get me one as I dislike Barcelona!)

[thebish]

last night, went to the Exeter Corn Exchange to see the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain...

it was a fantastic night - their musical talent is immense - and their understated, dry humour as real joy!

[Gary the Enfield]

To(morrow)night I'm off to see The Wildhearts (for the umpteenth time)

This band never fails to deliver.

First half of the set is a live rendering of their (20 years old) second full studio album P.H.U.Q. and the second part an eclectic mix of other favourites from the last 25 years.

Me, Mrs GtE and Little Miss GtE will be in attendance.

Altogether now ''I wanna go where the people go yeah-eh''

Royal Exchange tonight for The Crucible, but first a tasty morsel at Wahacacaca in town.

You arer aware that the dance event of the year starts tonight Clapton? I assume you will be taping it? Daniel O'Donnel dancing, who could miss it?

When did this happen? I emailed the bastards and they told me that they had no plans to open up here. That's my next night out in Manchester sorted!

Corn Exchange on the outside near the fountains, just across the way from Harvey Nicks. I can recommend the 'British Steak done the Mexican Way'! Excellent grub!

Well, I was actually meaning in a more Daniel O'Dare way than Freddie Astaire, Worthy....

From the match to Bridgewater Hall.

Manchester Camerata is a lovely chamber orchestra with an exuberant conductor. The programme was familiar - including Rodrigo's Concierto de Aranjuez and Beethoven's lovely Pastoral symphony. But they played beautifully - and our (me and my wife) Year of Live Music gains its first September entry.

Indeed. I wanted to see them at The Academy the Friday before last. However, LeverEnd has metamorphosed into the most gigantic nice person that it's possible to imagine. These days he's given up on running, he's given up on gigs...... The nice person.
