Nick Muir has got a gig in Buenos Aires now, the bugger - can’t blame him, I suppose.

Damo, we should talk about timelines, you’re the headliner! You may have to follow an utterly brilliant classics set from me mind…

Happy to step in if you need another warm up dj

How did you manage to get Nick Muir in the first place Grant?

Is it because, both being 85 years old, you move in the same bridge and dominoes circles?

    bosstrabs I’ve known him for ages - he worked for a long time with one of my best mates who’s a sound engineer. He did a streaming special for my 50th on the day and did a belting two hour set.

      bosstrabs Grant, OLB and Mono all in the house?

      Tempted to cash in those Avios and fly back!

      This would be the icing on the cake, can you imagine the bants?

      Mamma mia!

          Smallman1 This would be the icing on the cake, can you imagine the bants?

          Mamma mia!

          Me, you, Grant, Benson, Mono and Dutchy?

          Tops off, stir-frying bants in our collective mind wok?

          Flight and hotel booked!

            Benson will probably go to sleep before anyone plays.

            There is a chance as I am at work at 0730 the next day and will have been on call overnight the night before.

            Still haven’t cleared it with the Mrs either

            Sadly I am now out. Work is such that I am doing night shifts and 24 hour on calls in such a way as to make London that saturday evening impossible. HAGO lads. I’ll be there in spirit but actually I’ll be asleep. While Ed talks about the coal face of biz trans I’ll be at the HEALTH frontline at 4am.

                A grand opportunity for the first Jaded Clubbers livestream…….rather than the Bunker, the Bonker #001.

                  Would definitely brighten up my Sat afternoon over here in the States, Cowpander getting deployed at 5pm EST

                  I’ve actually had a pretty rough 15 months and the cherry on top is that I’ve just had a positive PCR test result pop into my inbox. I have to self-isolate until midnight next Wednesday.

                  The party is off, but what’s worse is that my trip to Puerto Rico is massively at risk as I need a negative test by next Tuesday.

                  What an absolute cunt. I’ll bet it was some anti-vax cunt that gave it to me

                    Ffs man…gutted for you fella.

                    …awful news mate, so sorry. Was proper looking forward to it too. Like I said, on hand if/whenever you reschedule.

                      Gutted for you mate….ffs.

                      What a fucker - sorry to hear that, Grant. Take it easy and hope you’re over it in no time

                      Along_the_Wire Shit. Sorry to hear that Grant, that is proper wank news

                      Hope you’re ok health wise & that you can get a negative by Tuesday

                        Fuck me that’s terrible. The upvote was for condolance.

                        Get well soon, Grant!

                        Best of luck, ATW. Hopefully all works out.

                        Something I was not aware of until last week for travelling is showing proof of health insurance. A friend was going to Costa Rica through Panama and it was an issue - she’s 25 with no current insurance because ’merikkka. I’m not sure of Puerto Rico does but just something to keep in mind.
