I saw him at Reading ‘01 and I’ll be seein him again at Electric Picnic this September. I used to love that song - Breathe I think it was called? “I’m so scared I can’t breathe” or somethin

From the Pure album? To be honest I only know that one album and the usual suspects (Cars, Are Friends Electric?)…I will be one of the many who only burst into action during his pop hits :D

Yeah, I’m exactly the same! I was actually thinking of “I Can’t Breathe” (duh!), the last one off that album.

Keep a special eye out for his wig almost falling off when he’s “rocking out” ;)

Ha ha, the other thing I find funny about him as well as his hairpiece is the fact that he married the woman who ran his fan club :)

That’s bizarre. As long as he plays “Are Friends Electric?” and “I Can’t Breathe” when I see ‘im I’ll be a happy man.

You see Gary Numan you EXPECT HIM TO PLAY CARS!!!

He must use some high strength wig-glue though - he was whipping his head around all night and the hairpiece didn’t come loose once :)

The whole gig was hilarious…Numan has got some harcore fans and quite a few of the men look like him (balding, stocky, long leather coats)…and the women, well, all I’m saying is I’ve never seen so many monsters gathered together in one room…

I did join in with the “Nuuuuu-maaaaaaaan!” and “Come on Gazza!” football chants that a lot of the blokes were doing though :D

I briefly thought you were going to say ‘…invited to his wig fitting.’ :o

That would be a great photo…one of his fans standing there bewildered and a bit scared with Numan’s hairpiece on their face, whilst everyone looks on in horror :D

*puts his flaming Rammstein hairpiece away and tries to look clever*

So, erm, Stephen Hawking eh? Few holes in his theories, dontcha think? And that Carol Vorderman, eh? Bet she uses the calculator on her phone during the ad breaks, you know..?

ah, well don’t start me on Vorderman. She’s gone reet downhill since she started doing other things besides countdown. Before, she was all “well you take the 1 from the 8 to leave you with 7, x it by 100/6 carrying yer 3 from the previous 9-6, subtract the 50 and multiply the 2 by the fraction remainder of the pi equation to get to your 672. Easy, really.” NOW she just goes “oh i’m sure i can do it, erm… come back to me after the break”. You lazy fucking whorebag. Get with it Caz, those Finance commercials won’t keep you in dodgy fashion forever.

As for Hawking, i’d have a bit more respect for the fella if he was reprogrammed to talk in a Black Country accent.

LOL

We opened the ‘spoons two days before Xmas (BAD idea) and this huge bloke got so pissed he passed out (taking the tall table - which was full of glasses - with him) and came round just as the ambulancemen were tying to cart him off in a wheelchair. He tried to twat them, so we called the Police, who soon had him face down with cuffs behind his back.
“So, ahem, welcome to Wetherspoons! Hope you’ll enjoy our friendly, clean new pub…!”

:(

*needs to get back on topic*

Erm, he looked a bit like Gary Numan, only fatter. And he had his own hair. And a different shaped face and head.

*hopes he got away with the on-topic thing*
