I guess from your point of view it is whatever 'you think' it is.....nobody is really going to go to any lenghts to explain anything to you... think what you want..
Goodmorning Bridge... hows you today..?

I'm doing good m'dear...had a nice weekend off,very relaxing.
Has Spring arrived..? It's brighter not as cold..the days are longer but the weather remains unpredictable...the flowers are finally popping their head out so yeah I guess it's Spring...
You've lots to do I know and big preparations for your new adventure.. sooo exciting Great that you have some time off to make a start.
I'm haven't done much today just sitting on the sofa for now having a browse around the Net... I'm sure at some stage I'll get my ass in gear...I may do the garden now that I can see what's what.. Have a good day mon amie...

As Bridie says....we chat about many things Maybe we should discuss feckin eejits who make posts without capital letters or full stops

I had to read her post more than once to figure out exactly what she was trying to say
I think what she means is we stalk Il Divo on the internet because we don't have the money to travel around 'actually and phyically' stalking them.... these nuts never cease to amuse me...from our posts they can tell how tall we are,how old we are and now they can look into our bank accounts too.... the Power of the 'Diva'...

We stalk ID on the internet? Not guilty as charged Take the p*ss and have a laugh? Most definately.... but stalk? Nope
As for the rest......I didn't go to the concerts here as I couldn't be arsed make it LOVE LOVE LOVE to hear ID sing live but I have family commitments, financial responsibilities and more pressing issues that need my time.
You were right to point out that you were being sarcastic, Bridie!!! Our guest is not the sharpest tool in the box

On another note..........
David.....you're not funny. As a matter of fact, you're a dick ...... to be sure, to be sure

I watched that on Saturday night....to be sure,to be sure I did...
Really Mr. Miller.... that's what you hear from the general ignoramus that visits this country and think they're funny...but I think Brendan handled him alright...
I found the interview for the most part pretty funny and the guys themselves fairly relaxed....BUT...it beats the hell out of me what they found so amusing about a man dying at one of their shows....I would hope this mans family wasn't watching as the behaviour was so immature and insensitive....poor form and not cool...I know Brendan O'Connor added that they weren't making light of it...too late..they had already made light of it...not impressed....again..

Chances are they were watching as the poor man died at Kilruddery and ID were on an Irish TV show I wonder how David would have felt if Brendan O'Connor had tittered and laughed whilst asking him about his fathers fight against cancer...HILARIOUS!
I bet the usual saps are whittering on about how great the interview was and such FUN!

Chances are they were watching...and I know ID sent a bouqet and their condolences to the family at the time....a nice gesture....but to be flippant about the loss of anybody loved one is really not on at all..I'm sure it wasn't a deliberate thing but it just came across as distaseful.I also sensed a little bit of attitude or arrogance from D.Miller at the beginning of the show...but maybe that's just the way he always is now..

Next time I see him I'll tie his bowtie for him
"Bit tight there, David? Jaysus, you've gone a funny shade of purple.....to be sure, to be sure"

Do you think there'll be a next time...I think I've seen them 'enough' to know I've seen 'enough' of them....I'm sorry to say I don't admire them anymore... plus they give nothing back to the fans in this country when you look at the promos and oppertunities they give to fans in other countries despite the support and very warm reception they always get here....leave them to what they appreciate....

I could have cheerfully slapped Mr. Miller upside the head, when did he become such a plonker (answers onna postcard to.......)

How can ANYONE make light of someone's passing is beyond me so they sent flowers, big deal, they could afford it, I hope the family it affected were not watching this interview, because if they were, I have no doubt how upset they would be.

Do you know what? I have no idea when they were/are appearing in Cardiff because I decided quite some time ago I wouldn't be going, got better things to do with my time and money than waste it on 4 singers who have got too big for their boots.

Now, Andrea Bocelli or Patrizio Buenne, THAT would be a whole different ball game, unfortunately, they never seem to come to my part of the world, but one day, one day, I WILL see them both

Bridge wrote:

Mornin' ladies!

I agree totally with Loki, listening to Andrea and Patrizio, together or separated, will be a very very priceless treat

Il Di... who?

Mornin' to you, Bridie!!! Loki is right.....we'll see what comes up in the future
As for ID....seems they rocked Dublin last night. God love the Irish fans..... Unaware of the collective shite that trails around after them and all the balleeks that's attached. Oh, to be also innocent of it!!!
Off out.........see yews later

I really wish we were oblivious to it...we'd probably still be enjoying this group just for a good night out.Sadly where ever these guys go the 'Diva' skanks follow spoiling things for others too bad..

Remember we'd devised a dastardly plan for a "snatch and grab"? I'd planned this to snaffle Carlos... mid-song... during the fly-by
Bet it would have worked too

Indeed i do remember all the plans made to snatch our favourite...
can't believe you never got your pic with the Chest... his loss of course...

Its not over yet, Colleen
Its been a wee while since we've had a wee bit of a fun-poke at the Loyal Divas....withdrawal symptoms are setting in so I had a wee trawl looking at the antics of our favourite laydees
Bless this one....slightly bewildered tho'. What "membership" is she referring to? Someone needs to explain that good, hard cash is needed to share the air and feel up your Divo of choice

I am going to see Il Divo on May 5th at Chryler Hall in Norfolk, VA. As a member, can I get back stage to see them.

As we all know, a "safe environment" is a much need requirement for our travelling Divas and the fact that ID have subjected these women to having to sit in a casino concert hall is a feckin disgrace

Wonder why so many of the venues for concert this year
are located in a casino complex . Both locations within
driving distance for me are such (Cincinnati and Atlantic
City) 5 hrs. and 6 hrs. drives that require an overnight
accommodation.

Not a safe environment! Really disappointed.

Lynnejoy :0(

Just for the record, Lynnejoy......Having attended an Il Divo concert, I'd like to advise you that if you can survive the mania of the front rows and the babbling hyena's and baboons who are resident in this dangerous terrain, you can survive a casino.
Not unless you are also addicted to slot machines and card tables. If thats the case, you're own your own

I bet there's been a few requests from the wonderful loyal Divas, asking if they can have a wee nibble on their Big Macs Extra cheese all round!!!

Please read this stunningly beautiful, well-crafted prose....breath-taking
There HAS to be a genetic connection to Shakespere....HAS to be Please read this at a "leasurly" pace

Lib glad you liked TB. My husband and I gone there before going to the DPAC on time. I'm thinking 4:30 will be the pURSfect time. That will give us plenty of time to eat leasurly and get back for our M&Gs in plenty of time.

are they trying to look "cool"... are they trying to look "normal" ?

Bridie....are you insinuating that this was not a casual moment caught on camera? Are you suggesting that this was staged for the fans to show that they...shock, horror.....ARE actually members of the human race and don't live on caviar and lobster?
I am shocked.....SHOCKED, I SAY!!!!
I LOVE this picture!! Seb hoovering up his food......David grinning for the fans in that special, sincere way of his........Urs giving us a brand new pose for a change and Carlos looking like he's about to offer us one of his skinny fries.
You have tried to kill my dream, Bridie.....how COULD you suggest that this is not a real moment in time!

Aw feck.......... now I'm in the mood for a cheeseburger. With extra pickle.
I wonder if Carlos would let me have his pickle You can never get enough pickle
Hey Bridie..... I don't think thats actually The Oors. I think they have a life-sized mannequin of him that they lift on and off the bus when he's needed for photos

I'm so sorry darlin' BUT... see, is there any chance to be caught like that, outside of the McDo*ald's just behind the double arch (chi-ching )... with such a nice look...
see... that's the truth


and that's a fake eater

true! it's not him.... it's not him

If it is him, Where is his McDonalds? Go figure that he would be tooooooo good for eating such common foods.

Speaking of the butternut-- a good friend of the bar in Va had the great joy to meet her at a concert either Sat or Sunday- seems she admits to attending 35 (holy shite--the money!) shows

well, hope you ladies have a pURSfect day
