FIRST PART OF THE TWO LAST NIGHTS WITH THE BOYS

[SAXONATOR]

well, it´s me again. it´s a snowy sunday afternoon and i just woke up. (at 05:00 pm). it´s early in the morning now and my shoulders hurt - my neck aches and i am feeling not so good. everything above my nipples is hurting. i don´t know why but yesterday there was a saxonconcert. hmmmm.....

but lets begin with the gig before. it was in dusseldorf on the 7th of december.



we (it´s northernlady suzie and me) decided to join a saxongig once more. as so many times before we pressed our asses in the tight denim and leather - pulled over our "a night out with the boys" t-shirts and then we headed to the Tor 3 in order to get our necks crippled again. as we entered the hall i looked around and someone was coming right towards me. i thought by myself: maybe it´s someone who wanted a fray without chances for himself. he said: hey - are you saxonator ? i said: yes - that´s me. he said that he recognised me because he looked around this forum an his name was GOSS and came from england just to join the saxon five that evening. and here is the man with the best tourjacket ever:





he wrote down the setlist and i am sure that he will be so kind to add it after i am finished with the review. for ME the setlist is always the same:

- an intro
- a very old rusted song
- an even more older song
- an old song
- an older song
- a song from the first album
- a song from 19-80-something
- a newer song
- a very old song
- a song from the 12th century
- a song from the 3rd album
- a song from an extreme old album
- a song from an album to come lol
- finally 3 extra songs
- at the end they played the last song

at the beginning of the gig biff asked:

and the crowd went like this:

guitar player #3


guitar player #3 again


guitar players ? i don´t need them....


guitar player #1


guitar player #2


guitar player #3


guitar player #4


ehm - number 4 ???


guitar player #5


hey wtf ? enuff now - i must have a look - i think five are too much ?!?

(then biff stopped singing - turned around and said to his bandmembers: stand up and be counted. on this day a new saxonsong was born)

 

[SAXONATOR]

thumbs up - it was a great audience tonight


collective banging - a real gang-bang


look at their faces - i swear they can´t look any happier !


we will be back ! promised !

so at the end we stood in a strange awful smelling hall full of beer-glasses left alone with the sureness that we will see them again soon.

so here we are: totally at the end of our power with sweaty hair and finished with the day:



this is the way how girls look like right after an orgasm:



we managed to get our tickets signed by nibbs but he left early so this time no photos with the boys. before the gig GOSS asked me if we would call Paxoman but aftershows it was very late and after we talked much about everything he was very tired - he just wanted to go back to the hotel to sleep because the plane leaves early and so we forgot to wake up paxoman - but we will make it next time for sure

then off we went and said good-bye to GOSS in hope to see once again somewhere on a saxongig.

at this time: 1000 beers to england

and now it´s about 01:49 in the morning. i believe i have to go to bed now

tomorrow i will continue with the osnabruck gig. but i have to clean up my room before because it looks a little bit awful here after all this review-writing. just take a look: (i kicked all my cats and dogs out so you can see the REAL problems in here)
