Re: Sligo-Help for newbies.
Oh dear...well Gwen, I sent warming thoughts to Jayne in England, so will do so the same for all my wonderful Irish friends. We NEED each and every Irish fan in Las Vegas for the exuberance...and the joy...and the sense of fun! The snow WILL melt....the planes WILL fly...trust me.
See you soon!! xoxoxoxo
ps: but if one wasn't coming to America, then Lissadell would be beautiful.

It has being snowing in Sligo today Diana so I'm guessing Lissadell is looking beautiful. While it hasn't snowed here today (yet) we have treacherous compacted snow turned into ice conditions and although taking extreme care I've already fallen once but no serious damage thankfully! I so cannot wait for Vegas on Thursday!!!!!!

Re: Sligo-Help for newbies.
Hi guys,
Sorry for the off-topic post, but any idea where Vegas meet up thread went to? I don't know what was decided in the end or where to meet Maarten for name tags etc.
Thanks.

Re: Sligo-Help for newbies.
It seems that all meet up threads are gradually being moved to a new World Tour 2010 Meet Ups section of the board. I rather think this thread should join it - or better, make its way to Everything Else. It seems to be nothing more than an ongoing socialising thread for people who went to the Sligo shows (with the odd bit of input from people like me who wished they could have gone to the Sligo shows) - rather like the Friends of Red Rocks, which has always lived in Everything Else.

I kinda agree,

but some members of the Forum asked me to keep this thread alive,
partly, I guess, for updates on the on-going saga that is the Lissadell legal action
and also for the proposed "Sligo" reunion, the Tree and the Plaque

I am aware it is a thread that does not need to live and does not need to die,
(btw. thanks to those for keeping this thread alive

we can discuss its future and place after Las Vegas

PS. I just noticed it is coming up to 25.000 views

I'm not suggesting for a minute that the thread should die - just that it is no longer appropriate (if it ever was) to have it live in the World Tour 2010 section of the board. It seems that there is one rule for everywhere else and a different rule for anything to do with Sligo! As I said, I think the mods should move the thread to "Everything Else" as part of their current tidying up activities. After all, legal action re Lissadell doesn't have a lot to do with Leonard's World Tour 2010 does it?
Look forward to seeing you soon.

Re: Sligo-Help for newbies.
Great, thanks Wendy, found the separate meet up thread, now that it has been moved out of 2010 world tour section.
I would also have to agree with you re: Sligo help for newbies thread. No more help for Sligo newbies is required given that the concert took place five months ago, but it is a handy social thread. I came here for help as I knew it was still active. It looks like 2010 World tour being tidied up to contain concert reports only so chances are the sligo thread will be moved sooner rather than later. Maybe after Vegas and the court decision ? Fingers crossed for Lissadell, hope they kick Sligo Co. Co. ass.
Thanks again for the help, might see ye in Vegas. Departing tomorrow afternoon, Mayo to Dublin for Thursday AM flights. Weather looking good for Dublin and Heathrow airports.
Very excited. Very.

This thread should stay alive for as long as people want to keep it alive. It will fade away if no longer needed.

Re: Sligo-Help for newbies.
Keep this thread open I say, I find it is a Irish link for us whether you were at Sligo or not. Besides the concert reports I rarely read any of the other links on the forum. Enjoy Vegas Mick, Musicmania et al. Safe journey.
