26/08/08 Hiya kid. So...I'm leaving home in London yesterday. Literally putting my bags in the car and this lad comes up to me.. "Can I get a quick picture?" he asks. "Dunno..CAN you?" says I. Anyway while his mate is taking a reasonably quick snap he informs me that he was one of the lucky ones to get tickets for our tour in October. "I hope you're not putting any of 'em on e-bay?" "No chance, mate" he says "I'm going with my granddad ..he fuckin' loves you lot!" JESUS CHRIST!!! I ask him how old his granddad is in the vain hope he might be freakishly young...like. say.. 50? "65" he says. "He's been into you lot since '94!!" At Heathrow airport the righteous people of B.A. have upgraded everyone to 1st class except for tour dj Phil Smith who has been mysteriously downgraded to "premium economy" (whatever that is). Halfway through the flight I'm interrupted by one of the cabin crew who's laughing nervously saying, "Mr. Gallagher your brother seems to have collapsed in the aisle!" (YES! AT LAST!!!) And sure enough....there he is, face down in the aisle unconscious. "Shall I wake him?" asks the attendant. "Nah, leave him there..he's only looking for attention!" Somewhat predictably U.S. immigration nearly takes as long as the flight. I think the sight of a true, real life evil genius has the young officer flustered. No major drama though except one of my bags hasn't made it. THE BASTARD. Please don't let me suffer the indignity of shopping for undies on the morning of the gig the person who serves me is bound to be a fan! Seattle seems to have changed though (and for the better, I might add) since the last time we were here (whenever that was). Had a quick skip down the venue to check what the wizards have done with the lights for this tour. It looks pretty good, I must say. Fuck knows how we manage to afford all this stuff. Pink Floyd eat your heart out! Anyway gotta fly, I have an excruciatingly pointless interview to do… 'til next time. 哈哈哈頭子說故事就是好笑XD 第一段歌迷要跟頭子照相 “我可以跟你照張相嗎？” 頭子回了句“不知道耶....你可以嗎？”（XD） 然後歌迷說他搶到十月巡迴的票要跟阿公看，頭子問了阿公幾歲？ 以為可能很年輕結果是６５ “他從９４年就很尬意你了啦！” （祖孫一同看綠洲，好屌！） 第二段所有人坐頭等艙，摳連的巡迴 DJ 菲爾史密斯被降級到 premium economy（豪華經濟艙？） 途中機上服務人員跟頭子說： “蓋勒格先生，你弟弟似乎倒在走道上耶？” （頭子心中的吶喊：ＹＥＳ！終於！） “我要叫醒他嗎？” “不用啦，讓他在那邊吧，他只是想吸引大家的注意。” 剩下的大家自行欣賞吧XD --
