    I’m wait­ing with impa­tience…

    Bye Bye

    Wow…I like what you (or your web­mas­ter 😉 ) have done with the place, Guy! This is very nifty…tis always nice to know I’m not the only one who thinks black is a nice and read­able back­ground color. Just seems like it’s not used as often as one would think it would be.

    Sounds like you’re hav­ing a great time down under! Adrian Belew?! I am so jealous…what I’d give to be able see him and/​or King Crimson live one day. Which reminds me that I STILL need to get the Deja VROOOM and Eyes Wide Open DVDs. Especially the lat­ter, as much as I love the Power To Believe album, and believe it to be just as under­rated and great as the Discipline line­up’s work.

    Looking for­ward to read­ing more about your time in Oz! 🙂

    Glad you’re hav­ing fun and every­thing’s going well. I haven’t checked in an atlas or any­thing but isn’t 5.30pm UK time about 3.30am Australia time?

    I know you’re on the other side of the world but do you know what time slot planet rock put your show on? I missed Sunday’s and the Planet Rock’s new web­site has­n’t got a work­ing lis­ten again fea­ture yet, but more impor­tantly their on-air sched­ule has gone back to say­ing that you’re on from 7 till 9pm. Don’t sup­pose you know if you’ve been shifted again or if it’s just out of date do you? It’s all get­ting a bit con­fus­ing.

    Hope every­thing car­ries on going well.

    The things DJs will do to ensure they still do their shows, even when they’re away.

    Back in the day, before the inter­net (or teh intar­webs as geeks tend to refer to it), it’d just sim­ply have to be some­one record­ing their show and mail­ing it (mail! what a con­cept!) to their radio sta­tion and pray­ing it got there on time. Now, it’s as easy as hav­ing a lap­top with music on it, a head­set with a mic, and an inter­net con­nec­tion to your sta­tion’s server. Maybe not that /​simple/​, but the basic con­cept is there…

    It’s quite inter­est­ing to see this change of tech­nol­ogy and meth­ods occur­ring in, say, the past 20 years.

    Cheers,
    Nix.

  5. Karen - December 6, 2008 1:54 AM

    Welcome back.

    I will be there on the 12th.

  6. Lawrence - December 6, 2008 2:26 AM

    Guy
    I’d just like to say huge thanks for tak­ing the time to chat to my wife and I the other night, It was a real hon­our plea­sure for me to finally meet you after many years of fol­low­ing and admir­ing your work. Your show was fan­tas­tic and a bloody good laugh, my wife and I are really look­ing for­ward to see­ing Phat Bottom End this after­noon I’m sure you’ll put on great show.
    It’s great to have here in Adelaide I can only hope you had time to get up to the Barossa Valley and sam­pled cop­u­las amount of the local liq­uid prod­ucts.
    Thanks again Guy hope you enjoyed Adelaide,it would great to see you down here per­form­ing again some­time in the future.
    Regards
    Lawrence

    I’ve been lucky enough to have seen Derek play twice…what a gui­tar player!!!!

  8. James - December 8, 2008 1:43 AM

    Hey Guy,

    It was great to see your “My Bass & Other Animals” show on the 4th. Was very suprised to see how ner­vous you were. I think most peo­ple loved the show! Yes the Adelaide crowd was quiet but they were enjoy­ing it. Your show is great so relax when you per­form it!
    Cheers for the chat to.

    James

  9. kerrie - December 8, 2008 12:50 PM

    Hi Guy,
    I saw your stand-up in Adelaide last week. You have many great sto­ries and I tried to keep up, but you were on fire!! I know, I know, I’ll have to read the book, but could­n’t get one at the fes­ti­val. The magic of the inter­net should be able to solve that prob­lem though. I lis­tened in awe to the 2 songs you played/​wrote at the start of phat bot­tom end — absolutely beau­ti­ful, thank you so much.

  10. Torgeir Røyset - December 18, 2008 1:58 AM

    Hey Guy,

    since you seem to be tour­ing the hell out the world at the moment; when will you visit Scandinavia — or to be more pre­cise: Norway?

  11. Heather - December 18, 2008 2:37 PM

    Hi Guy, just a brief note to wish you and your fam­ily a Merry hol­i­day and all the very best for 2009. Keep up the good work and hope we will be in a posi­tion to see you per­form live again in 2009. Very best wishes from Phil and Heather

  12. Dave Jones - December 20, 2008 2:08 AM

    Happy Holidays Guy. Wishing you all the best.

    Did you ever fig­ure out why the Russians went bonkers over the empty upside down shoes dur­ing Us and Them?

    Cheers

    Dave from Idaho

  13. Lorenzo - December 20, 2008 6:20 PM

    A Merry merry Christmas and Happy new year to you and your fam­ily.

    A spe­cial greet­ing to RICHARD.

    Bye Bye
    See you in the new year.

  14. Karen - December 22, 2008 1:12 AM

    Hello Guy,

    Sorry to hear that there were a few down­ers with Australian tour, espe­cially the book issue.

    I have to say how­ever, Sydney loved you, the whole audi­ence had an excel­lent time, and we really would have loved some more, I really hope you enjoyed it and it topped every­thing of for you.

    Thanks for the quick chat after­wards and sorry to see you go so soon.

    But again you were so so great, so please come back again.

    Merry Christmas.

  15. Phoenix - December 24, 2008 12:24 AM

    Happy hol­i­days to you and your fam­ily, Guy, and to all the blog­gers who stop in here! Everyone have a safe and healthy hol­i­day and a most excel­lent new year!
