Less than a couple of weeks to go, here's a little ditty for you to sing along to. With apologies to Steve for ruining perfectly good lyrics, this is sung to the tune of "My Only Vice" . . .

Symphony Hall brings us a smile;
It's a venue with immaculate style;
It's easy to see from balcony,
circle, stall or seats by the aisle.

With Orchestral Swans, and choir on song,
we'll be in sweet heaven for a while!

Harley gigs - never the same;
To Steve this is more than a game;
So he'll paint the scene, a Menagerie dream,
driving us clean out of our minds.

Come on admit it, we've all got a ticket
We'll travel for miles, it's sublime!

He's a genius, a musical pearl;
Who enriches and colours our world;
Oh my only vice is the fantastic price
I am charged to see Harley play live!

So Robbie will slay dragons on guitars;
As Barry's violin embellishes the bars;
Oh their chords will sweep, skip, jump and leap,
lifting our hearts to the clouds.

To cello and oboe, it's sweet Pyschomodo,
cries of 'more' ring from the crowds!

James is a hunk of a man;
He can nail every Rebel refrain;
Oh he'll play his keys, with brilliance and ease,
as Lartey girls add the spice and the style.

With Lincoln's bass flicks, and Adam on sticks,
we won't even miss 'Make Me Smile'!

He's a genius, a musical pearl;
Who enriches and colours our world;
Oh my only vice is the fantastic price
I am charged to see Harley play live!

END.

I don't suppose it will replace the original song at the pre gig party singsong, but hey, hope you enjoyed it! Anyone want to give 'Death Trip' the same treatment, good luck!
I'd hide if I could, but I'm red in a yellow sea . . .

Well, if we have all been good boys and girls maybe Santa will let us have a London O2 repeat gig in the New Year.

In this months Classic Rock mag Harley says that they're looking at booking the Barbican in London for another symphonic show &
the Birmingham one is being recorded for a future audio release unfortunately no mention of a DVD though.But a repeat of the last indig02 show would be brilliant,it was such a good atmosphere last time.
