It's 200 in the plane - and 700 at the gig in Athens.
By the way, my hope is shrinking a lot. I have googled and saw that they do a lot of promotion for this event. I saw discussions in several forums (not even related to music, but mobile phones ect.) that the people are excited about it and that they participated on the competition. And I only googled german sites...
I guess our chance is very tiny. And the plane will be full of non-fans, I am afraid...

Damn that sucks. I guess thinking only Jamiroquai fans would enter was naive... But it should've been like that! If this competition was for a gig by, say..Coldplay, I wonder if I would have entered. I like their music, but I'm not a fan... hmm, but I guess you can't blame anyone, it's just a shame for the real fans if they don't win. |

Hi everyone, I just found this update from Funkin...
Jamiroquai guitarist Rob Harris posted a message on his MySpace blog a few days ago saying that the band had recently done a soundcheck for the Gig In The Sky - which will be taking place at the end of February. Well, here's a little more information courtesy of drummer Derrick McKenzie...
"We are all excited about doing this gig on the plane especially Rick [Pope] as he has new mini desk to try out and it does look fab I must say so myself, and I will be playing the smallest kit on earth I think, lucky me going back to my roots of playing the way I learnt years ago, with just bass drum, snare drum, hi hat, one crash cymbal and a ride ha ha ha!!!!!"
"I had the pleasure of going down with some of the guys on Monday [22 January] to the airport to have a run through to see that all was working well, and that all the technical stuff would work. It went well and we managed to have a good play and sound check. Of course our equipment will be truly scaled down so it will be a lot of fun to do. I love these types of gigs as you can experiment with the stuff you are doing. I am truly looking forward to this and playing music with the lads!!!!"
Thanks to: http://funkin.com

Patti this is amazing! Enjoy that great event!
I would travel to Athens just to see the airport gig, the plane is an unbeliveable dream, chances are too few... _________________ I once had a 10 years of Travelling Without Moving celebrations banner here... |
