£75!!!!! The only person I'd pay that much to go see would be Tom Petty (who *is* a proper musician ). Talk about ripping off the fans. Are people really paying this sort of money?

£75? woah! you know, I don't think i'd even pay £75 for a hand job off Christina Aguilera

Thanks for that, Spike....

Mind you, I can't comment about forking out loads of money for a gig as I have previous for that myself.

He will be launching the tour at Liverpool's famous Cavern Club

That's sacrilege!

Yeah I know! I'm sure there's some strange fascination with overseas visitors to try and play in famous locations.

Nice to see you connected btw

SELL-OUT SUCCESS FOR SOLO TOUR

The first solo tour by James Marsters is already a sell-out success more than a month before the first concert date.

Interest in the tour has been high and demand for tickets has been overwhelming. Every concert date is now sold out from London to Leeds.

James will be showcasing material from his first solo album and kicks off the tour with a concert special at the legendary Cavern Club in Liverpool on Friday, April 22.

It's disgusting. Who does he think he is? He can't even sing. Tosser!

But he's such a knob in real life 'tho and I don't mean at signings at stuff. I'm on about about backstage at events (not that kind of backstage either *shudder*). He's got such a large ego for an ageing short man

sorry i was laughin my ass off at all these commments, hillarious, i totally agree the man can't sing and i really can't believe those are actual prices for gigs...that's ridiculous..............


neway sorry for resurrecting this old thread but it was well funny, for me neway, it's nice to hear other people who think the same as me, i thought the buffyworld was up his ass, gd to know there are ppl who aren't

Go for your life A laugh is always good

Seriously though, there are buffy fans who like the show but still appreciate good music, and he's just not in that vocab for me.

After reviewing your comments relating to hand jobs, i do feel that this particular form is best dealt with in a private and self administered manner, also i agree 75 is a bit steep however i have recently watched her on oprah and would consider a token payment to hear her sing or for a used pair of her socks. Regarding your attitude and propensity for self administered urbatious doings i feel you should have a relationsip with a showerhead or some other hydraulic appliance before posting such bold comments again.
