The Pleasure Principle Tour has been amazing. Gary dedicating his music for me was an amazing honour indeed. I don't believe he has ever dedicated his music to anyone if you don't count Paul Gardiner.

I jammed with Numan at the DVD filming in London last night. Very cool to see all the Numanoids who took the time to say hello to me. Chris Payne performed "Complex" and "We Are So Fragile". The show was unbelievable. Definitely one of the Top 3 shows I've seen by anyone ever.

I left the front doors to head to where the aftershow party went down last year. But then a good friend who is a mover and shaker in the media industry scored for me a black Numan backstage pass to the O2 VIP Lounge upstairs. Got to speak with bassist Tim and Gary's daughter Raven (very friendly little girl), then scored some pics with Rrusell Bell, Chris Payne, Gary and Gemma. The next chapters will be truly Riveting.

When that was over at 2 in the morning, I walked back into the empty hallways of the Millenium Dome to catch the bus to the hotel, ocassionally giggling as I walked, at the brevity that had just taken place. There's only one word to describe the last two weeks: WOW!

All the best and Numanishly,
