    The most memorable gigs i have been to are the Who when Joe Strummer and the mescaleros were warm up,was great gig Joe played “i fought the law” “rock the casbah””London Calling” during there set then you had the who with John Entwistle on bass was heck of a gig and sadly never to be repeat now Joe and John passed away,REM were great live as were the Eagles and Fleetwood Mac,And Ray Davies still great to see,Aerosmith and Motorhead were fun too.

    Ewan – you’ll forgive me if I don’t know who you are but input to this issue, and knowledge of this particular crew aren’t the same thing, surely?

    Looking at my photos again the earlier portion of the display has the rear bubbles empty and at least two figures visible in the cockpit; only later in the display can I see a figure in the rear bubble, and in those shots I cannot see more than one head in the cockpit.

    So excess passengers would appear to be a bit of a hasty conclusion, no?

    Now thats a conclusion i like i think that should be end of this debate now.

    No problem. I used to watch it too, but then all the episodes seemed a bit of the same old same old week after week.

    I didn’t realize people in the UK enjoyed it too. 🙂

    Friends has been quiet huge here i like it but can’t rate it above our own comedy classics such as “porridge” “only fools and horses” “Blackadder” “faulty towers” etc.

    I am sure Neil will be there in spirit this year and every year,It will be a honour to Toast him in a drink.
    I think i speak for most people when i say Legends will have mixed emotions for all who were there last year and saw what happened.

    Lovely photo’s,Its always a treat to see her in Rays hands just think the approximate combined age of Ray and MH434 is 137 years and this partnership is still one of the most beautiful on the curcuit.

    RIPConcorde,

    You’ve lost me? What’s the bloody difference?

    If you nearly to something you don’t do it,Hence i could nearly hit you but miss that would be a near hit,but if i did hit you but ment to miss you yet hit you that would be a near miss,technically you can not nearly miss anything
    as it would be a hit.

    The Firefly was initiating a roll and lost control at the inverted – how much more aerobatic do you want to get!?

    From what i saw with my own eyes i can not be certain the roll was not the effect of loss of control rather than the cause of it.

    I would have said Mossie and P38 but these are sadly just memories now
