Don't think so, if he had, I'm sure he would have played with a cold.
You see, yesterday, at Glasgow, he wasn't there; they band played with different vocalists.

I'd like to know if all is well, where he is and if the band's playing.
If Grady's back to the US for some reason and the band is cancelling all gigs, there's no reason to get on board the plane tomorrow.

damn that is strange

Well as I mentioned in the +/- thread, Cayle came on and said they had bad news, and that Grady couldnt be there. From what I heard (and my hearing is a bit fucked up likes) Grady had to get to his wife in Paris or something, some family/personal thing, an emergency basically. Fuck knows what's happened there, but I was absolutely gutted when he said that. It was wierd as well, because one of the roadies or sound people at the side looked like Grady so I thought it was a joke at first but alas...so we got Simon from Biffy Clyro and Craig from Aereogramme, who both hardly knew the words. The band still ruled the whole show though. And Mike is one nice fella if ever I met one.

Thanks for that Chrisbo.
Absolutly gutted, hope all is well.

I called Newport TJ's tonight, who said the band was going to perform with different people tonight. I then explained why I asked; because I was to fly over to London. The guy answering the phone then interrupted me to say the singer will be there.

Man, I feel horrible.

PS. Cool to see you on here again!

Chrisbo · Mar 17, 2006, 12:45 PM

Cheers dude! That's good that Grady's gonna be there for London, will be an absolute kick ass show. Watch out for the singer of The Seventh Cross though, heh what a nutter that dude was!

Martin · Mar 17, 2006, 06:34 PM

Added info; Grady's wife was in an accident, that was the issue.

Gaz · Mar 17, 2006, 11:16 PM

according to the tour diary on Myspace Grady wasn't in Newport either. I bet they will be back again later in the year for a headline tour to make up for Grady's missed shows.

Martin · Mar 20, 2006, 12:37 PM

Added info: He was back in London and Portsmouth and they rocked like bastards!
Roll on Oxford, if my frail body can make it.

fireflyry · Mar 20, 2006, 12:46 PM

Glad to hear it worked out for you Tuck.

Chrisbo · Mar 20, 2006, 12:57 PM

Just a shame it didnt work out for me

Ah well sometimes there is far more important things in the world than music. I'm sure they'll be back soon with Grady in tow, and I cant wait!

Martin · Mar 20, 2006, 01:01 PM

@ Fireflyry:Thanks man

@Crisbo: Man, that suck indeed. Hopefully they'll be back soon. Or, just travel to Oxford tonight or London tomorrow

vadimo · Mar 20, 2006, 02:05 PM

Martin · Mar 20, 2006, 02:08 PM

Nothing happend to Grady, it was his wife, and she's allright again (what I've been told).

Chrisbo · Mar 20, 2006, 02:16 PM

Craig from Aereogramme did Saga and...shit I forgot the other song he did, well I'm sure it was something off El Diablo. Sheep the singer of The Seventh Cross did If She Could Speak and Simon did Carpe Diem, I've Seen My Fate and Stick Up Kid. Apparently he hurt his ribs when he tried to jump into the crowd because he hit them off the railing, just as well he hasnt got any shows with Biffy planned until the end of March.

Good to hear his wife is alright!

Martin · Mar 20, 2006, 02:36 PM

it's on their myspace (who sang what and how the shows went).

Chrisbo · Mar 20, 2006, 02:46 PM

Yeah, but the tour diary bulletin has gone off my bulletin space thing, so I cant look back now. Ah well, I did read it though, the whole thing about the beer keg rolling down the hill haha! Sounds like they had a great show in Newport, haha, would have liked to see Kirk from Crowbar blast out Carpe Diem.

vadimo · Mar 20, 2006, 02:52 PM

would be interesting to hear simon doing these songs, biffy clyro should do studio covers of that lol.

is that will haven official my space: http://www.myspace.com/willhaven43

is handle bars to free... a new song?

Chrisbo · Mar 20, 2006, 02:56 PM

Yup, that's Will Havens official my space. And yeah, I think that is a new song, but I may be wrong.

Martin · Mar 20, 2006, 03:31 PM

Your correct. 'Handlebars To Freedom' is a new song, but they don't play it (yet).

Grady @ Portsmouth asking the crowd if they visited their My Space...crowd cheers..Grady "I hate that shit...this song is not on there...it's called Helena".
Made me laugh.
