I think we would do it if we could make a lot of money, prices similar for food etc to the ManU game. From what I know some performers want a cut of the takings plus a big wedge (majority share) of the bar and food takings and it's just hardly worth while in some cases. A couple of stadiums have announced concerts today so there is still time maybe

He was just researching a book wasn’t he?

I love the Who and have often wondered about this. About 10 years before that incident Townsend released a solo album called Psychoderalict which tells the story of an ageing rock star looking to make a come back. In it a female journalist sends the rock star naked pictures of herself as a 14 year old in order to strike up a relationship with the star. I remember it being a bizarre thing at the time but after Townsend's arrest I did wonder if there was more to it than "research"

He wrote these lyrics for Tommy, so this maybe was an insight:

[Uncle Ernie: Verse 1]
I'm your wicked Uncle Ernie
I'm glad you won't see or hear me
As I fiddle about
Fiddle about
Fiddle about !


Your mother left me here to mind you
Now I'm doing what I want to

Fiddling about
Fiddling about
Fiddle about!

[Verse 2]
Down with the bedclothes
Up with the nightshirt!
Fiddle about
Fiddle about
Fiddle about !

You won't shout as I fiddle about
Fiddle about
Fiddle about
Fiddle about !
Fiddle, fiddle, fiddle

So ******* sinister on the album, terrifying when you first hear it.

with the fantastic facilities we now have at the gate and with wanting to maximise revenue am surprised there have been no major concerts  or events at the gate, are there any planned for next summer.

Correct. The money that TT wanted made it non viable. 

Announce MUSE!!!! @Mkelly @AdamB

Devonshire boys so plenty of fans will make the trip up the M5. Sold out Wembley too. It's a no brainer.

Was at "stones at the gate 82" gig but don't think I have been to AG for a concert since..........82 was awesome .....weird thing is I stood in the same place on the enclosure terrace as I did for footy........well it was mine after all........twas a Good gig......Jagger even wore a city shirt for one song.......a few lads climbed onto the roof of the East end and no one seemed to want to go up there and get them off.....danced away for ages they did young rascals eh.....
