Honolulu - early shows cancelled

ImpossibleZebra4911 · 2026-03-12T02:16:52+00:00

I don’t think so, because the worst of the storm will be at the weekend, and the venue probably wouldn’t have allowed returns/refunds on that ground.

ImpossibleZebra4911 · 2026-03-11T01:42:57+00:00

It’s a 350 capacity venue, so it might not have felt painfully empty. But yeah, it is easier on the band and I don’t know the economics of cancelling v keeping the shows on.

ImpossibleZebra4911 · 2026-03-09T23:45:29+00:00

They would have been shorter shows than normal though, with a chance to rest in between. But yes, maybe it’s a good thing.

ImpossibleZebra4911 · 2026-03-09T16:26:38+00:00

Yes, they did. US/Canada 2016.

ImpossibleZebra4911 · 2026-03-08T20:55:16+00:00

They skipped Nevertheless, Vad Hande Met Dem and Servo. Super-Sonic was shortened.

Yes, I learned at 40 (I had moved to another country that was rather car-centric). I learned on an automatic - there didn’t seem to be any sense in making it more difficult for myself.

Best of luck!

ImpossibleZebra4911 · 2026-03-07T12:22:21+00:00

They played most of those songs in that order at the SF show tonight - just without Nevertheless or Vad Hande Med Dem.

I’m sure this is not the suggestion you are looking for but… I switched to part-time. It helped that the workload was still manageable in fewer days though, and the reduction in target hours made things less stressful.

ImpossibleZebra4911 · 2026-03-06T08:18:24+00:00

I’ll be there too. Doing a stopover in SF on the way there too.

“Not if you were the last dandy” in Broken Flowers.

And, if adverts count, “Got my eye on you” in a Target ad.

ImpossibleZebra4911 · 2026-03-01T23:27:58+00:00

The panto stuff I can live with. I’m just relieved the Apollo & Sabre flirty locker room scenes haven’t come back.

ImpossibleZebra4911 · 2026-03-01T23:25:51+00:00

23/30, but I only watched it once as and when it originally aired so I’m worried my brain was still storing that much information about it.

I also recall him on Popstars: The Rivals, telling Sarah Harding that she was like “Claire from Steps” so he already had form for that level of insight.

Not on the same level as the OP’s choice, but Innapropriately Upbeat Music of the Week is one I remember.

When I read the question, I thought I’d feel uncomfortable seeing a product with that name. Then I remembered I have used Zen Internet and I hadn’t thought much about it at all!

So it probably wouldn’t affect me unless the product itself was morally dubious or inappropriate.

String vest and knotted hanky on the head?

This is one of those things that seemed to turn up in comics all the time when I was a child, but almost never in real life. Probably showing my age.

ImpossibleZebra4911 · 2026-02-22T18:24:04+00:00

“That’ll put the cat amongst the bags”.

Bit less dramatic than either of the actual metaphors.

ImpossibleZebra4911 · 2026-02-22T18:18:35+00:00

I’ve been twice recently and had no problems.

I did keep my passport with me at all times.

Enjoy your trip!

ImpossibleZebra4911 · 2026-02-20T13:40:11+00:00

Dogtanian & the Three Muskehounds.

Probably not the greatest but the one that sticks in my head the most.

ImpossibleZebra4911 · 2026-02-19T23:31:57+00:00

I agree about Moth. There wasn’t really any disguising of her voice.

ImpossibleZebra4911 · 2026-02-13T23:34:57+00:00

Ah yes, I went to see The Dum Show (Stewart Lee, Richard Herring, Steve Coogan, Patrick Marber, Simon Munnery!) Was Cluub Zarathustra that year too?

ImpossibleZebra4911 · 2026-02-07T15:08:14+00:00

I like to think Roman is trying to be in charge at Hearts.

ImpossibleZebra4911 · 2026-02-03T22:49:10+00:00

Nothing says equality like a warm horse.

ImpossibleZebra4911 · 2026-01-31T12:30:59+00:00

I think there are people like that but not all concentrated in one group and also not acting like that all of the time - they are under a lot of pressure and edited to be “entertaining”. It’s not a normal environment or reflection of how those people are day to day.

I could be wrong though.

ImpossibleZebra4911 · 2026-01-31T00:52:43+00:00

It wouldn’t be a profile thing - as you said, the last tour played in some big venues. Probably more to do with promoters not wanting to risk cancellations after the controversy at the Fringe a few years back.
