MadDogCole: "So, Speyer has gone for another year. It was fucking excellent as usual, with so many attending, plus the 5 thousand trying to buy tickets on the door! I don't remember ever being THAT hot on stage though, it must have been 100+ degrees! All the guys in the audience were fantastic, with so many "singing" during the appropriate songs. It was also great to catch up with some of our friends, Tombstone (Hell of a job you did there Billy), Steffan, Sandra, Ingo, Spy, Lena, Lonesome, Phil from Bicester, Andy & Charlotte from good ol' Basingstoke to name but a few. Also good to catch up with Chuck, Sparky, Mark & Suvi (LLT) Anne-Marie, Lucky Devils, Humungus, Simon Nott, Da Mad Sin blokes etc etc. You're all great guys, so don't stop doing what it is we all do! I look forward to seeing some (if not all) of you in Pineda in June. Don't forget to tune into the new podcast on May 5th (http://maddogcole.podbean.com) So for now, its bye bye, and don't forget your requests etc for the podcast."
