    And it's started already!

    It's 10am on saturday... and whump whump whump....

    yup, that would be the sounds of the Greenday Soundchecks starting up at the National Bowl. And it sounds like the wind is going the right way for us to just open the windows and have a listen.

    Plus, they are shutting the main roads running down 2 sides of my estate... which is gonna make it very difficult for my dad to get his grand voyager and 6m caravan back into our drive....

    Oh I love Concert season...
    (Knox, enjoy Greenday! I don't have a choice!)

    Well, there is the local tradition of tow-truck watching... when they're parked in the way. each one is £105 pounds for our lovely council. (yes, there are warnings against it.)

    Ah the joys of living in MK in concert season, roads blocked off, cars all over the place, people complaining about the noise in the local paper (muppets). One great thing about MK, there's some good fishing lakes near the Bowl, so a spot of night fishing, few friends & drinks and free music I've listened to Guns N Roses, Jackson, Robbie and a few other this way.

    Greenday rawk. Only recently have I come to appreciate them, however. Their new album I love, and I'm having to go back to the old ones now.

    Too right, which reminds me haven't listened to them in ages
    I don't mean to sound cold, or cruel, or vicious, but I am so that's the way it comes out.

    sounds like it's a good concert, from the crowds' reaction.

    Can hear everything, wind is in the right direction


    OK fireworks too.... BANG!

    Could hear it from Campbell Park yesterday, got caught in the traffic on the way back, kids all over the roads . I expect the kebab vans made a fortune last night!
    There's a thin person in every fat person.....that's because they just ate them.

    kezzer now you just crossing the line on coincidence

    i was at that concert! ffs and you also go to a uni right next to my school

    when your on the internet you just expect to never have to go within a couple of hundred miles of anyone on it - fReAkY indeed

    was a great concert though!

    i was standing middle left on the floor to see how close exactly you were (im shuddering at the thought!)

    agreed on the old stuff being better (they played lots of it luckily) nimrod being the climax
