2003 Tour?

#

Started by Citizen Erased in General Therapy? Topics

Rene, if T? are releasing an album this spring, I’m guessing they’ll be touring as well. Do you think that they’ll be looking for anyone to go on the road with them (like an unemployed accountant - not so good at tuning guitars, but pretty mean with a scientific calculator)?

Sabotage, if you’re going to have time on your hands soon, would you be up for this?

Or was this just another beered-up pub idea that should have stayed in the pub?

Yes, chances are quite big that they will be touring this year. I don’t think, however, that they will be needing someone who’s pretty mean with a scientific calculator.. :D

And look at it this way, if they do need someone to go on the road with them, I will most likely beat you to it, since I do know how to tune guitars, heh heh ;-)

Ahh, yes, but whose going to carry YOUR bags?

And don’t you have a real job? (Or are you lucky to have a real job and an understanding boss, i.e. the kind I’ll be just as soon as someone starts paying me again).

Besides, it’d be unfair of you to leave maintaining the board to Hoochalobster whilst you were living it up on the road.

Do the honourable thing, I <think> you know what that is… ;)

Promise to send you daily reports whenever the tour plays in a town with a cyber-cafe - “Our man on the Road” kind of thing.

And you’d be amazed at the uses I can find for a calculator (mainly counting stuff and sums admittedly :()

How about Citizen Erased gets to man the boards while I go on the tour too? I can’t tune a guitar to save my life but I’m a good gopher :D

I think this calls for a carry-Rene’s-bags-whilst-on-tour-with-Therapy? contest to see which one of you can do the job best, if I decide not to do the ‘right thing’. Hooch definitely has an advantage for her efforts on the site, so that means at least 3 extra suitcases for you to carry to have a chance, mr. Erased.. :D

Errr…no, I don’t have a job right now. I’ve never mentioned this on the boards, but I lost my job at the end of last year while I was on sick-leave due to my back problems. The company I worked for called it quits during that period.. :-(

And getting a new job with back problems is not that easy, as you might imagine.. On a sidenote, I’d like to think making a new Therapy? site is a job, though (kinda). Without the money, but with a bunch of Therapy?-related perks :D

Wow, err, welcome to the no-job club! There’s a lot of that kind of thing about these days, it would seem…

You and Hooch couldn’t possibly do it - that would be like saying you’ve done really well here, so stop doing it! No, success is it’s own reward and I think it’s in everyone’s interests that you both keep the home fires burning…

My CV then… In addition to my calculatorial skills…

I can carry stuff too (having been doing lots of weights since the job went)
I’m short and gorgeous (IMHO ;)), therefore the perfect counterpart to big and horrible Sabotage
I can make a cup of tea under the most trying of circumstances (stranded in the middle of nowhere in Iceland for example)
I speak most foreign languages*
I know the secret of traversing the M25 without meeting traffic jams (but I’m not telling)
I have a really big suitcase (one size down from the biggest, as that wouldn’t fit in my car - most embarrassing to go back to the shop and ask for a smaller one)
I could regale the band with my humourous tales of the accounting world (this one time, at accounting camp…)
I was in the Boy Scouts so know lots of knots and have a penknife with a thingy for getting stones out of horses’ shoes.

A mere 3 extra cases? Pah! Bring ‘em on! (but please don’t fill them too much)

* By which I mean I’m English and therefore speak slowly, loudly, and patronisingly in, err, English whenever I’m abroad.

Momenetarily seriously, hope your back’s sorting itself now - knowing what it’s like to find a job in normal circumstances, you have my sympathies.

[Comment: Well, we were drunk, I mean REALLY drunk, and had a good laugh…]

And here the response:

“Sorry Guys but after show the tour bus turns into a homo-erotic disco and I fear for your tight young buttocks…

Take it easy…Michael

T? 2002”

Any Questions?

Having buttocks that aren’t remotely young any more, I think that they really should open up a bit on this one (the band that is, not the buttocks, whose tightness remained undisclosed).

This thing could really work - I might have to change my name from Citizen Erased to Bucketman!

I think “dude” is a pretty good giveaway!

Plus he said he wouldn’t act gay on the tourbus.

Plus he likes Turbonegro, and no girls like them.

Only gay boys.

Sorry :-)

So are Turbonegro gay? Or is it just a VERY, VERY good act?

Shra-mee, what pizza are you having tonight!!? :-)

…what’s the name of that TNG song about pizza?, I’ve forgotten. But it’s cool.

Am not convinced that that’s a nice picture of anyone. Gonna need my bucket

Damn, all my hopes of getting to be Charlie Brown and say ‘it’s the little red head girl’ have just been dashed.

Still glad to have found out now rather than on the tourbus, when the buttocks would have been at risk. Definitely wouldn’t have wanted a cock up, so to speak.

Once half wrote a song about a bucket.

Have you heard of the “ass rocket” live on stage?

I´ve seen it last year at the Bizarre Festival. Great show - great fun!

What Pizza song? Well, I have to go through my TuRBoNeGRo collection…

I’ve remembered the name of the song about pizza - Age Of Pamparius - cool tune!

I’ve never seen TNG live unfortunately, I can imagine it would be great fun though.
