he went really early (like half five the morn) and waited for the coach to arrive, then ended up meeting them, getting pics and getting his guitar signed and a liitle drawing. he also heard them warm up, and ended up list!! the little pic he drew is really cool, kinda like the ones on the cover of the album, all squiggly!

OH, YES, ALL BOW DOWN TO THE GREAT OLI WITH THE SIGNED GUITAR. IT WAS AMAZING. I SAW LISA COME OUT, AND I WAS LIKE..."THAT IS... LISA". SHE SIGNED MY GUITARAND I SAID IV BEEN WAITING FOR AGES FOR THE REST OF THEM. SHE GOT OFF THE BUSS, WHERE SHE WAS HEADING, AND WENT IN TO THE ACADEMY TO GO LOOK FOR THEM. AND I GOT PICS WITH THEM ALL AND THEY SIGNED MY GUITAR. TOMO JOKED THAT IT'LL PROBABLY BE ON EBAY NEXT WEEK... I BET HE THINKS IT'S MY GUITAR!!!!!


WAS A CRAZED FOOL THEY ARE TO SELL SUCH AN ITEM OF HOLY VALUE, BUT I GUESS IT'S OK IF ITS FOR CHARITY.

Hmm, even if I wanted to I couldn't do it, I've got a black Les Paul so it wouldn't show up. And my acoustic is actually my old mans, and its black too.

Unless I get some Tip-ex

Stargift,

your pictures don't show up. You need to first upload them to the internet. You can use PhotoBucket as a free picture host.

I know almost nothing about computers.I can see all my pictures in the forum, but you say you can't? I did go to photobucket and put them in there. Now how do I get them from there to here? I put them in an album called damien rice.

No, I can't see them. I looked at the underlying source code of this page and saw that the address of the pictures points to your own computer (which is why you can see them).

Ok, here is what you need to do:

1) In a separate browser window, go to PhotoBucket and log in.
2) Locate the picture you want to show here.
3) Underneath the picture you see three lines of code. Use the one top one that says "URL". Click on that line to select the whole line of text and right-click to copy it.
4) Come back here into a message, use the picture button as you did before, now pasting the URL you just copied. It will look something like "http://img24.photobucket.com/albums/v71/myname/mypicture1.g if"

Hope that helps.

P.S. Rather than writing a new message you can also edit the old ones and just change the picture part.

P.S. 2 And say hi to Tom from Angela in Boston. He'll know [img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]

I gave him the message from both you and Angela as I was getting my guitar signed by him. He smiled and seemed to remember both of you.

It was great! The only new ones were ones he has been playing at a few gigs--"How the west was won", "It ain't you", and "Packing for the crash". If you go to tomination.com I posted a couple pictures in the music forum. I better not take up any more space on someone other then damien in this forum.

I love those new songs, especially HTWWW. I think the next album will be very good indeed.

There are actually a lot ot Tom fans here, stargift. We have even given him a topic all of his own here which already spans ten pages: Tom at eskimofriends.

I saw the pictures. Does that mean we now have to buy the guitar? [img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img] Is it going up soon?

Iwill never sell it. I need to learn how to play it one of these days. The only time I really blew it was when i met U2 and i didn't have it with me to get it signed.
