Tangerine Dream

I don't know if it's just me being sad, but in the week leading up to a TD gig I get all jangly of nerves, find it difficult to sleep and generally lack concentration. I never had this problem when I played in bands, gigs were just gigs. weird, innit?

Very true Ed,the butterflies begin to play havoc

I don`t get nerves regarding the gig, the fan meets - thats a different matter

I know what you mean Ed - but I think there is a fine line between nerves and excitement! I am probably most nervous at making a boo-boo some how - like forgetting my ticket or getting the wrong day!

I must admit that I am a bit nervous about the fan meet myself

know I will probably feel a bit like an "amateur" being amongst the greatest TD fans in the world - but don't get me wrong - I am VERY MUCH looking forward to it

Panic ye not gentlemen. There will be a warm welcome for one and all, veterans and newcomers alike. Relax and enjoy the very special "TD FAMILY" atmosphere.

I've never known anyone to get elitist over their interest in TD. It'll be fine. Despite having been a fan for 25 years and having a huge TD CD collection, I know precious little trivia.

Spot on Ron

When any band starts to play I always feel a bit tense. Once the first ten minutes or so go by I start to relax and enjoy myself.

Exactly my dream last night Stephen - got off the bus, into the School Hall (not the Forum after all) No Ticket. And the merch stall had TD Advent Calendars too!

you haven't been to one yet mate honestly it's just like going down the pub...you know a few people and have a chat if you want to. I'll gloss over the bit when BM jumped into Colin's arms

Pre the MDF concert April 2007 I knew very few TD fans, and my nature would not have interested me in this type of event. But throwing caution to the wind last year was definately a great move.

I can understand people who think they may be a little intimidated by it all. I was when I first met up with the guys in 2007 ! this was TOTALLY overcome within minutes, with open friendlyness being show by all people - it was just a little difficult to remember who everyone was !.

With each Fan meet after that, be it a pre- gig type or not, I have amased an amazing amount of TD fan friends - and these are real friends, that I feel totally relaxed with at all times.

These meets make the TD experience that little bit more special.

Thanks to CJ & Andy for there tireless work on the organisation of this event , and previous one's.

I sincerely hope to acquire some more TD friends this weekend.

elitist? don't think so, hell most of us can't even spell it
