queenmichelle member Joined: 07/28/09 Location: Scotland Posts: 3	Thanks to prettihaytmachine for telling me about the Scottish thread - eventually found it. New here and I am, indeed, Scottish. I used to listen to NIN back in the late 80's/early 90's and then went in a different musical direction, but I'm back and loving them all over again. I never got to see them play sadly, and I gave my guestlist places to this years T in the Park to my friends, who wanted to see...yup NIN. Ach well, too old for festivals now anyway, especially the Buckfast fest that is TITP.

Been here for nearly ten years, originally from south of the border but don't hold that against me! A very sweet ex introduced me to the ecstacy that is NIN/TR in the early 90's...... And I've been hooked since! Saw them for the first/last time at sonisphere..... TR is truely a genius and the only man on earth that could ever turn me straight! Q is a lucky lady! Hope they're both happy!

herebutnot member Joined: 08/04/09 Location: Scotland Posts: 18	LOL yes helensburgh does sound better than the area u lived in.... Altho drugs are so common place these days, I'm pretty sure every neighbourhood has a friendly drug dealer within reachable distance! Well let's hope after a wee break from the touring circuit TR will change his mind! And as for working on a Sunday..... It should be outlawed!!!! Working night shift over a weekend really doesn't do much for my social life! How was the F N M gig?
