It seems them playing Acrobat wasn't the only big fat sin they commited that weekend.

Ugh have to watch something nice now to remind myself that I actually have a really good reason to love them this much, oh lord XD
(at least it's kinda cute with Lukas, but OH GOD PAUL COULD YOU BE ANY MORE EMBARRASSING?!)

On those nights I’ll let desire win: 09/10/2009 - London, 15/10/2009 - Amsterdam, 16/10/2009 - Tilburg, 22/10/2009 - Düsseldorf

Bet they feel right twits now after the smashing-up.

my friend has a theory that they'd had a drink before they went onstage and it was a random thing to do.Frown

nar.. it was a very Rock n Roll thing to do.. just not something I'd associate with MP.

I always like to see a good smashing of an instrument like.. LOL  Lukas was great… standing ontop of the keys… smashing away and then the stand giving way beneath him and landing directly ontop of them again.. mint.. Duncans was good too.. you could just tell he'd seen it done so many times before and he looked good doing it.. dunno what happened to Archis and Tom though.. (not getting involved in the smashing.. spoilsports lol).. the only downside was Paul picking up the guitar and then throwing it across the stage… nar.. didn't really work for me that!.. I don't think it was drink related tho.. Highly emotionaly charged.. perhaps..

I thought it was quite fun. Lukas was the best, as Duncan seem to have trouble actually getting the guitar to smash, perhaps that's why Paul threw it across the stage. Someone's got to do it!

I think it could have been drink-related.Just my personal thoughts though.

anyway,Paul didn't seem too pleased with Duncan on the interview afterwards,about it.Cool

Can't watch anything as always. I hate BBC. There're other people in this World, not just brits. Still angry.


Although I feel your frustration Londy, I agree there is other people in the world, not just Brits but they don't have to fork up the sum of £142.50 a year just for the privilege of recieving BBC…(its funded by the British public) or infact owning a TV in the first place. Its what the goverment call the TV license fee and it SUCKS big time!Cry

Don't you have this in Italy? I guess as they spend publically funded money, it comes with restrictions. Not everyone can view what they broadcast or stream….just a guess.


Still that doesn't make sense really. As most british channels can be received free of any charge if you own a satelite dish in Europe (as we do). I think the system of funding is pretty much the same all over Europe…in some countries you pay a tv license fee in others it's included in the taxes they take of your wages.

@Garp1978: the German equivalents aren't limited to Germany as far as I know. You do not want to know how many german channels we have preprogrammed , my bf seems to like them a lot. I prefer German television to Dutch television to be honest, but I really dislike the voiceover bit in Germany and wish you guys would switch to subtitles EmbarassedEmbarassed.
