Hail, Hail, Sigh and Yawn: The Hives return for UK dates
Hey! I like the new record.
Re: Hail, Hail, Sigh and Yawn: The Hives return for UK dates
Yes I do. Oh...hold on...........you weren't talking to me.

They're playing Nottingham Rock City on 22nd September as well.
Re: Hail, Hail, Sigh and Yawn: The Hives return for UK dates
When the fight broke out at the secret Hives gig at the last ever Poptones' Radio 4 night in Notting Hill, I got shoved over the monitors and landed at the feet of Howlin' Pelle, who picked me up by the scruff of my neck and shoved me back into the crowd. A moment of rock skullduggery that was not surpassed until I met Bez...
That's my story. I'll go now...

Nice story.
What happened when you met Bez then Tommy?

There's about 8-10 dates in all, I think - that's not the complete list above (at the time of me writing this, anyway)...

I shook his hand and told him, rather schoolboyishly, that I was a big fan. He slurred 'you love it' and did a little dance.

Mike, is your sole purpose in life to rain on people's parades?
Re: Hail, Hail, Sigh and Yawn: The Hives return for UK dates
Um, dunno. Maybe. Depends on how shitty a day I'm having.
Today is Defcon 3. Average level of shittiness.

By the way, do you really go hiking? Really? I though that's what older people than you did when they get too fat to run anywhere and make up for it by trekking across eight hills of varying heights in Dorset. Then get to the top of the last one and munch their way through a jumbo pack of Hob Nobs, thus undoing all their fat-busting good work.
Old, fat people rock. I can't wait to be one. I'm gonna work on it by eating my way through some fat pizza in an hour or so. Mmm, fat pizza. Man, I'm hungry.
Okay, bye!

Trust me, if you spend your life in an office (as I do), you can either go the way of pizza and TV when you get spare time, or you can get out and about...
Re: Hail, Hail, Sigh and Yawn: The Hives return for UK dates
Ditto that.
I hear you on that...
Sometimes your lungs can't take the filtered air-conditioned air, and your skin can no longer handle the false lights coming from the over head fluros.
Damnit.

Oh, I do go out. I'm fortunate to live in one of the few parts of London where you can walk for about 4 miles straight in what pretty much amounts to countryside (plus two woods). Wouldn't say it was hiking, mind.
Pizza is saved purely for shitty days, much like yesterday. Incidentally, it was a great pizza (Tesco finest* no less).

Hiking: the new rock and roll; Blacks: the new Graceland.
Man, you kids are weird.
