On Christmas Morning I opened my Birthday Present from my wife to find 2 tickets to go and see "An Evening with Suggs" at the Wyvern Theatre in Swindon... The date 2nd Feb 2012.. The time 8pm...

I'm well excited!.

Been a Madness fan since I was 10 years old! that was 28 years ago!! I saw them live last year in an open air concert and they were fantastic!!

I know this is only Suggs taking about his life from that time till today, with a bit of music thrown in, but its gonna be EPIC!. :cool:

(just thought I'd share!

Just to get you in the mood:

Not that I’m jealous or anything like that.

Already in the mood!...

It's great working from home, Listening to Madness at 'Ear Bleeding' volume whilst doing my CAD work!!

I have a very eclectic music taste!!.. From Madness to a bit of Pink Floyd earlier!.. My winamp playlist is a bit of a mixture!... there's even some Rammstein in there somewhere!!

Heh he's a good guy! I had a lock-in with him in Camden a few years back and he was a good laugh and bought me a few Guinnesses

Me, my mother and brother went to this in Newcastle for my Mum's birthday present. She's a massive Madness fan and honestly I thought she was going to cry when she opened it

Really enjoyable night. Not sure if it's just a Newcastle thing, but the crowed was constantly trying to shout little 'funny' one liners in to the silent moments. One point, Suggs turned around and said "What was that love? Oh right yes. But I don't think everyone wants to hear you talking all night, know what I mean love?", to a round of applause from the audience

But yes, fantastic night, very funny and great to hear him singing. He really is a charasmatic lad, and if half of what he said actually happened, VERY jammy aswell! =)
