Hello everyone,

Haha, Colin! I can probably keep a place for you at the London Piccadilly Circus event (if I'm able to make it), but you're on your own with the Birmingham one! If it were me, Colin, I'd throw a sickie (and hope that the boss doesn't read this website!)

Now, on a more serious note I would like to ask Juan a couple of questions, if it's not too much trouble. I wanted to know:

1. Assuming that Mr Lee is signing "Revelation", will this be the only thing he'll be signing?

2. Will it be possible to take photographs?

Many thanks. I very much hope that I'll be able to attend (and my mother doesn't know about this yet, but I'm sure she'll want to come along as well!) It would be wonderful if other CLW members could make it too. Anyway, take care everyone:

Warmest regards,

Andrés

Only his CD.

No.

Many thanks, Juan! Funny, I predicted both answers correctly. Just call me Uri Gellar!

Warmest regards,

Andrés ;)

**Isabel Alves** · 2nd November 2006, 02:18 AM

Uri Gellar! Best would be a Super-Andrés
Bem! A lot of tasks for Andrés: to keep place for a, to remind and the fans that live to act distant........................................... . game!

But there is other happiness in that, even for who is unable of go see Mr. Lee, this place is ALIVE! A lot of innovation, a lot of action of Mr. Lee!
Success and Happiness the all involved.

Isabel, What you say is true.

It is one of the wonderful aspects of being a part of the CLW. For those who are fortunate enough to attend affairs that Mr. Lee is present at, they share their experiences with us, so that in a way we can also be a part of it.

Best Wishes to all who get to attend these events.....I am looking forward to reading about your experience! Have a wonderful time!

Cheers, ;)
Helen

Aha.......Birmingham! At last, an event close to home! Being as I'm from Wolverhampton this is pretty much perfect for me.

Hey Colin, I'll see you at the back of the queue.:)

Well, I hope for those who are able to go there will have LOTS of fun and that Mr. Lee's wrist won't break from all the autographing *chuckles*

Either way, this makes me wonder, will Mr. Lee ever come to Germany again for such an event?
It would give fans like Jacob, I and of course others from France or Belgium, Germany and of course the Netherlands a chance to meet him too.
Unless Mr. Lee is too busy of course but just a suggestion.

*awkwardly clears throat* :bolt:

Hello everyone,

And steering the thread back to the BBC News appearance, did anyone else manage to watch it? I wasn't able to see it live because I had to go to hospital this morning with my parents, but I did record it and watched it in the afternoon.

I thought it was a very nice interview/chat with the two presenters about Revelation, but far too brief. Why they left Mr Lee until the very end of the programme puzzles me, especially as they ought to know by now that when Mr Lee speaks on a subject he likes to do so in detail. A definite bonus was that we got to see a couple of brief excerpts from the DVD section of the album, and very interesting it looked too! But I was so thrilled when Mr Lee announced his next project (well, I'm not going to say what that is, but I'm sure we'll hear more about it in the coming weeks and months ahead). And just when they were going to speak about Mr Lee's ancestors and the musical connection they had to end everything. How disappointing! Next time I'm writing to the BBC so that they give Mr Lee a decent amount of time to discuss his work (15 minutes should be the minimum).

I was able to take a couple of photos of Mr Lee speaking on the programme, but the quality is not all that good. I'll attach them anyway, because it will hopefully give some impression to those who do not receive UK channels or were otherwise unable to view it. Take care everyone:

Warmest regards,

Andrés

Many thanks for that link Juan. Unfortunately, those smart folks at the BBC have chosen not to include Mr Lee's appearance in the video podcast. I don't know whether they will upload it as a realmedia file, like the interview Mr Lee gave a few years ago when he had his autobiography Lord of Misrule published. The link for that one is: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programme...st/3259411.stm for the webpage, and http://news.bbc.co.uk/media/video/39...e09_lee_vi.ram for the realmedia video file. Anyway, take care everyone:

Warmest regards,

Andrés

Have a great time and wear a scarf!;)

That was a nice clip. That anserw he got about the air conditioning was very odd.

Marije Kraa · 3rd November 2006, 03:42 PM

I'm feeling idiot right now.

It's a .ram file and I can't play it on my PC or laptop. Anyone have ideas?

I curse migraine *waves angry fist*
