Thank you so much for the show, it was fantastic! For the record, I was one of the 5 people who cheered when you mentioned Da Vinci’s Notebook. Oh, and I was the one who had a brief conversation with Paul at the merchandise table, during which I mumbled that I was already being served. I had a conversation with Paul! Woo!

Hey guys, thanks for the great show. I absolutely LOVED IT! Brilliant. Definitely going to catch you guys again when you’re touring with JoCo in UK/Europe next year, hopefully in/close to Belgium?

PS: Gingerlink, you should’ve done that trade-off! Would’ve been bloody brilliant.

@John

He did offer me my twenty back at Birmingham (I had to rush off after the London show anyway), but I declined because I hadn’t really done anything in return.

We almost did a trade off where I would’ve got the twenty back for wearing one of the female rejected arrrr shirts at the merch table though.

Cool, that’s my video.

I’m trying to upload The Captain’s Wife’s Lament but as you can probably guess it’s a pretty big file.

This youtube clip of Paul as Liza has slightly better sound: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=b0s3HZ9BsSk

Awesome show guys! Thank you so much for coming out – it was a blast!

The London gig was truly amazing. Best gig I’ve been to… and I’ve seen a lot of major bands… Red Hot Chili Peppers, Foo Fighters, Pearl Jam, Iron Maiden, Sum 41. But you guys and JoCo were better than all of them!

Thanks for the hug Paul! Made my night =P
My Mom came with me (my ride) and she walked out a big fan of all of you.

Such an amazing night! Keep watching the YouTube videos over and over. Will be getting your CDs for Xmas…. what a gift?!

Come back soon! You don’t even have to bring Jonathan with you

Best gig of my life. Ever. Seriously. I have never seen that many geeks and wannabe-pirates in one place. It was like coming home.

And I’m the girl who lost her bag, went to check in the lobby whilst JoCo was playing, saw it wasn’t there, yelled, “Shit!” and tore up the stairs. I somewhat regret that now. It probably wasn’t an amazing first impression.

Thank you for coming all this way. We really appreciate it! That night made my century.

Hi Guys. Great show in London and I really hope you come back soon, although I may have to be a bit more astute the next time as I came all the way down from further North than Manchester and headed back the same night so I could fall asleep at my desk the following day.

Many thanks for one of the best gig-nights I’ve ever attended and certainly my favourite gig of the new millennium so far.

Oh, and I just had to buy “The Captain’s Wife’s lament” to find out how that song really goes.

Thank you.

Hey guys. (Storm, I’m the scary one who commented on how awesome the “pi arrs” bit was – but I also bought all three of your albums, so you can’t stay mad at me for too long). You stole the show, you really did. Amazing work, keep it up.

Great show guys, really enjoyed it. That was so worth the £20 even is you don’t give it back to Gingerlink. If there are what 500 people maybe in the venue, £2000 that is only like £4 each maybe we should arrange this next time (there best be a next time).

Great show guys, you and JoCo are perfect together! Will be keeping an eye out for further UK Paul and Storm fun. Maybe Oxford? (Yes, I moaned when you made that joke, but you’re still welcome. I know you meant Cambridge).

You guys were amazing, hurry back!

Thank you for my tiny ninja. Also, my girlfriend thanks you for the Dejected Arrr t shirt. A fantastic gig guys, come back soon! (West London is the place to be. – I’ll get you a ‘Chiswick’ hoodie. Very cool.)

Just saw video of this on YouTube. Very impressive, Paul.

Chaps; splendid giggery from you both and the esteemed Mr. Coulton. I’m enjoying my new FROMAGE apparel as I type this – and I liked the Norf London shirt so much I bought my own one. Come see us again soon.

Did you ever give that twenty back?

- John, the big guy that shouted “TAKE IT OFF!” and demanded you guys come back to England sometime.

The gig, yes, it ’twas tremendous but I think my favourite part of the evening was watching you at the merchandise table, Paul, as you asked who had a tube or train to catch – and then served those people first. I can’t quite describe how lovely that was. It made me forgive you for wearing a “Norf London” t-shirt (Sarf London is where it’s at, my friend!)

Come back to our shores soon.

You guys were absolutely brilliant, the London gig was an absolute blast.
You’d better be coming back to the UK in the future!
Totally kick-ass night, ARRRGH

Ah, you turned the comments back on. Very good.

Now, for all future UK concert-goers, Liza Minelli is great, but you should prod Paul to sing like Paula Abdul. Or like Britney Spears.
