Sounds like you had a great time in Europe! They always treat you guys well over there. Sorry to hear about the airport being so crappy. I hate airports too.

Oh, just thought I'd say thanks for the great show on Saturday. You were amazing!!! It was the best early birthday gift I could have ever asked for!

Feeling a bit squirrelly today and hit your mySpace site on a whim after a day of listening to the Pogues, Trey Anastasio and Chris Trapper.  Hope you don’t mind the interjection but I was delighted to hear you are currently touring the Isles and was wondering if any of you had possible read The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul by Douglas Adams?  It seemsed appropriate to your trip so far.  I purchased my own copy many years ago in Dublin about a week before my own mildly nightmarish stay in Heathrow in which I met a bank robber from the Netherlands.  If you want to find some interesting megolithic ruins to see if you have some time to fill, check out Andy Burnham’s site that catalogs archaeological pre-history web sites called the Stone Circle Webring:

Hey Guys!
     Hope your trip went well. Ive been a fan since i was young but ashamed to say i didn't know you were in Europe untill i had a conversation with the bartender at "The Yellow" in Rome. She said i missed you guys by like 3 or 4 days. I was rotted! I havent seen you guys since Ms.Hallett Retired. I was hoping to see you guys on George but i guess ill have to see you next time you come to Edmonton. Good luck! Safe Travels!

Hi guys.

I was thrilled to find out that I would be in Scotland at the same time as you.  I told my boyfriend that we were going.  I didn't care where it was in Scotland.  Glad to say the drive from Glasgow to Fort William was absolutely beautiful.  Saturday was a mud bath.  But the concert was great.  The rain was o.k until it started getting cold.  Figures that that is the only rainy day over two weeks.  
I have been a fan since 1995?? when you played the Festival of Friends in Hamilton.  I think I have seen you guys 12 times.  Some concerts you guys have seems burnt out but you were great in Scotland.  Hope that you come back to Hamilton and play somewhere where we can dance.(not hamilton place).

Saw you with Runrig...actually went to see you rather than them as have been fan for a while. You were fab and would love to see you in a 'full length' concert. When will you be back?

I've been a Runrig fan all my life and have seen GBS a couple of times as a result. Thought you were brilliant at Beat the Drum and the crowd really responded well. Plenty of people around me were asking questions about the band and I did my best to oblige! Get yourselves over here again soon boys and try to come to Manchester..
