Huffton Posted 8 February, 2009 Share Posted 8 February, 2009 This time last year Bon Jovi had been announced and tickets had been on sale for ages. Are we not having a gig this year? Surely it must be a good money spinner for the club during the summer months when the ground is unused? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamster Posted 8 February, 2009 Share Posted 8 February, 2009 (edited) Classic FM have booked a date for the performance of Giuseppe Verdi's Requiem. Inspired suggestion ESB, although I would think that would be more appropriate (forward to 29 secs if impatient). Actuaklly, this piece is called "entranace of the gladiators". Ironically, we were duped into expecting a team of young gladiators, only to find that they were just a bunch of kids being sent to the lions to feast upon.

Mr X Posted 8 February, 2009 Share Posted 8 February, 2009 I heard Lowe had booked the remaining members of monty python to sing "always look on the bright side of life!" after the final game of the season, he thought we'd appreciate it apparently.

trousers Posted 9 February, 2009 Share Posted 9 February, 2009 Perhaps Lowe is planning on singing this at his last game before the administrators take over....? And now, the end is near; And so I face the final curtain. My friend, Ill say it clear, Ill state my case, of which Im certain. Ive lived a life thats full. Ive traveled each and evry highway; And more, much more than this, I did it my way. Regrets, Ive had a few; But then again, too few to mention. I did what I had to do And saw it through without exemption. I planned each charted course; Each careful step along the byway, But more, much more than this, I did it my way. Yes, there were times, Im sure you knew When I bit off more than I could chew. But through it all, when there was doubt, I ate it up and spit it out. I faced it all and I stood tall; And did it my way. Ive loved, Ive laughed and cried. Ive had my fill; my share of losing. And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing. To think I did all that; And may I say - not in a shy way, No, oh no not me, I did it my way. For what is a man, what has he got? If not himself, then he has naught. To say the things he truly feels; And not the words of one who kneels. The record shows I took the blows - And did it my way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hughieslastminutegoal Posted 9 February, 2009 Share Posted 9 February, 2009 I heard it's going to be Status Quo. They've even come up with a play list:- To get 'em going:- Electric Arena All Stand Up Win Or Lose Then to give it local flavour, (with a nod in RL's direction):- One Man Band Face Without Soul With a nod towards the players:- Money Money Gravy Train No Contract Run To Mummy Then they get topical:- Safety Dance I Can Hear The Grass Grow Is There a Better Way (Mark Wotte joins for the vocals) Drifting Away Roll Over Lay Down Point Of No Return Going Down Tonight Down Down Encore -The fans will be asked to join in with :- Enough is Enough Backwater Apparently Rupert has refused to allow:- Sorry But is insisting on:- The Future's So Bright (I Gotta Wear Shades) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VectisSaint Posted 9 February, 2009 Share Posted 9 February, 2009 (edited) With all due respect are The Specials likely to fill a 32k stadium? Bit like Saints then Saw the Specials at Chippenham Olympiad in 2005 (concert for the Tsunami), not sure they would draw more than a few hundred (not a Specials fan, but enjoyed the night). Same night tickets for Chelski v Saints raised £3000 in a charity auction, those were the days Maybe we could get Coldplay to perform for free, I'm sure Will Champion would be up for it.

I also read on the Echo's Southampton rich list the Will Champion (coldplays drummer) is worth £25 million. That was back in 2007.
