The Specials - Tonight!!!!!

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

I was meant to go last Wednesday, (their first night) took time off work, time off work (the day after) met up with a couple of mates down the pub, and they sent a text to us (the concert venue, not The Specials) saying that the gig was cancelled. (Apparently Terry Hall was ill)

This was around 5.45 on the night, it has been re-arranged now for the 16th May..... can't make this date as going to Manure and won't be back in time..... (what a poxy week) :banghead: :banghead:

Ennjoy though mate, I know some others who have been (on the other dates) and they've said they were superb....

I went last Friday. They were quality. I took my 9 year old daughter and she loved them too. (That might just be because it was her first real concert after only seeing Bon Jovi before).

What has really pissed me off though they initially only announced the one date last Wednesday, we got tickets early on, but because it was oversubscribed they then announced the extra dates... :banghead:

Oh well, anyway Chunky you going to Madstock in July in Vicky Park? (I believe there may still be tickets left)

There's a link below...

Last chance to get ya tickets for SECRET AFFAIR at the camden centre kings cross on Sat 30th May.
True mod revival legends and they sound even better now with a revitalised horn section to complement Cairnsy and Pagey.

3 quality albums between 79 and 81. The most underated Mod band of the time.

Is there a better track than MY WORLD????
