EARTHBOUND 1 SOUTHWICK 2

[PK]

Hi TV,Tj,Fred,Mr C5,Klaus and anyone else I've forgotten.
Looks like I'm first on the (official!) T.U.T.S. Forum, Sorry Tj !

As it looks like Glastonwick will be the only TV gig for a long while I've decided I'm going to make the most of it ! So I'm going to make it my mission to try and get as many TV fans down to the south coast as I possibly can. Its about time the English fans made an effort to support what little non-manufactured talent is still out there after the record companies have done their best to stuff mediocre pop crap down our throats. No wonder TV plays so little over here !!
Get of your fat backsides and get down to the South coast !!!

I'm taking a week of work and if anyone in the South of England can't get there then just e-mail me and if your not living in the middle of nowhere (ie:Cornwall),and I can get to you then I'll pick you up take you there myself,NO CHARGE !!
(Oh and I will take you back,of course)
Be warned TV fans I may be e-mailing you to enlist your support,so save youself the harassment and get to the gig.

What more can I say !!  Don't miss this one a TV played his longest set ever on the last visit to Southwick,you would be mad to miss it.

See you there, PK

Great idea PK, :idea:
 
Is Clifford (in between Leeds and York) too far? :wink:  

It's funny I was thinking about TV having a great London gig (like he used to do in the 90's) where all the TUTS could attend. Maybe he could even play the piano again. Or invite Richard Strange and Colin Stoner along as part special guests (sorry I'm just exploring madness again.)
 :oops:
As this is a festival does Mr TV have any idea how long he is going to be on (I cant quite see Southwick 40 happening?)
 :cry:

Glad your with me TJ,

Seriously considering hiring a mini bus or people carrier and kidnapping as many unsuspecting old punk fans from my area to take to Southwick.
He He He!! :twisted:

Clifford,is that a place or a name  :?:
Might be a bit to far but at least it is'nt Cornwall :!:
Looks like all the main posters on the old site are going to make the effort to get down to Southwick.Must have been my threat of harassing them by e-mail  :evil: Might still have jog some people's memories ie: Mr C5 (not seen any posts from him ?)
Any how have booked the time of in June so roll on the month's to the best gig of the summer.
 
Speak to you soon PK

Hi TJ,Klaus,Alan,Fred & MRC5,

I know this IS the new forum but where is everyone  :!:  :!:  :!:
From the looks of it 90% of postings on the old site were done by just 6 people  :!: Looks like its just going to be the same people on this forum  :!:
I know I wasnt the most prolific poster on the old site (having just got into it about a month ago) but there seems to be lots of people reading the messages but not saying anything. :x  :x
How the hell am I going to give anyone a lift to Southwick if you dont bloody well talk to me. :evil:
Come all you T.U.T.S. out there I was'nt bluffing,I will track you down and drag your sorry butts to Southwick for a well deserved ear bashing of the best kind.
Mad but not Sad   :twisted:  :twisted: PK

Hi PK,

I used to be an observer in disussion forums for a long time, too.
But once I started posting, I found out, it's more satisfying that way.
If you look at the view-counts, it's interesting, how many people must
be reading this.

Klaus

Hi Klaus,

Know what you mean  8O
45 people have viewed this topic in just a few days  :roll:
However only TJ has responded & offered encouragement.

Is it human nature,do you think,to just observe and not get involved or is that just an "ENGLISH" thing.
As you can probally guess I've been trying really hard in the last few days to get some kind of real support going for T.U.T.S. but you would think TV has only a handful of fans and a couple of hundred bystanders in the UK  :!:

Oh,Oh  :!: I'm having a big of a dig. Do you think I'll get a response now  :?:
Would'nt count on it  :x  :x  :x    PK

Hi PK,

I am sure this is a general problem. Germany, England it's all the same.
People tend to be more and more passive.
They struggle with their own lives a lot and don't want to
deal with the problems of the rest of the world.
Ironically it has always been one of TV's strongest intentions,
to get people become active again and think about what's going on and
happening with all of us.
Just to name two songs: "Driver Of Passenger", "Roll Like A River"
The passiveness starts in a forum and ends somewhere out there where shit's going on.

Hi Klaus,

Back again,you could never tell I work on a computer all day,could you  :!:
Unlike you and TJ I'm not very good at quoting lines from TV's songs but deep down in the dark recesses of my brain TV must have touched something with his songs.

I know they say that if you shout loud enough & long enough then people will think your telling the truth,just look at how the media manipulate everyone. However you cannot deny the truth in TV's songs if your honest enough to listen.
If nothing else happens at least he opened my eyes to possibilities.

Hi PK,

I am glad to tell, that today is an exception, as I am sitting the whole day in front of my computer at work.
Usually I am driving around and in between I am sitting at other people's computers.

But so I found out another (dis)advantage of the new forum.
It really keeps me coming back permanently.
With the old one there would never have been so many messages posted.
It's just fun to log in from time to time and see, if some forum symbol changed it's colour and there's something new waiting to be read.

Also it's great to have different discussions going on and keep them alive independent from each other although you are interacting with the same people.

Hi Klaus,

Know what you mean. This IS addictive  :!:  :!:
I've been back on the site at least five times today.

There's still a lot of people looking and not leaving messages though ! :roll:
This topic is now the most read with 60 at last count. How strange  8O

This conversation must be interesting someone then  :?:  8O

Also as TJ says these Emoticons are damn annoying but compulsive  :!:  :evil:  :x  :oops:  :lol:    :?        :wink:

Still it beats working for a living.   PK

I have reading it now 3 Times :-) and still not quit get about what it is going on about and maybe other people have the same problem. :-)

:-( - I dont know T.U.T.S means, sorry.

I would come to Soutwick if i  could, but  sorry i am not able to.
I miss my time in England/London, when i could just go there ....

I think there are many peopel trotting  in the Forum , but are to shy to say something i quiet dont understand it.

But with the counter its a bit like Big Brother is watching :-)))

My Computer dosent like Emoticons :-(, so i have to deal with the standard.

Hi

i read in the old Forum , and know now a bit  what all this is going one about. :-)
But i think i am not long enough her in the Forum, to say my opinion .
But should i be for one reason in London at that time, i will think of Soutwick. :-)

Hi Kaenga,

T.U.T.S. means TV U.K. Tour Society.
TJ made this up as a kind of a joke because TV plays a lot more now in Germany,Austria & Switzerland than he does in England  

Klaus liked the discussion about this on the old forum and decided to make it part of the new forum.

The reason that this is the most read part of the site is because I am trying to get more TV fans here in England to support him when he plays  
Then hopefully he will play more in the U.K.
Hope that explains what we are talking about. Dont worry about the big brother thing,the only one watching you is Klaus and he's O.K.  

Bye for now   PK

[Tj]

Damn,

That's the wife calling for me to take her out - just when I'd finally found the time to post :cry:

Work are logging all work internet posts, which has also hit my chance to post :evil:

We really need to find out how long TV is on for at Southwick, before we rally the TUTS Army 8O



 

[PK]

Hi TJ,

Sorry to hear the machine has finally ground you into the "perfect" cog.
Saw a survey couple of days ago that said that 57% of all e-mails sent from workplaces were in fact personal  :!:
Bet that figures going to drop dramatically now their watching you  8O
As luck would have it my company dont seem to care that much,hense the high volume of messages I've been able to post so far.  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:
Anyway,have sent a message to TV asking if he's got time to post more info on the Southwick gig for all to see,especially the TUTS  :!:
Hopefully he'll have time to respond.

I know the counters on this forum click every time you view a message but I'm still amazed at how many people must be reading the Southwick 2 topic but are still too shy to offer any opinion,comments or even support.
So strange the English  :!:

See ya at Southwick PK
