Which UK Nutters are gonna represent? We have to have FULL reports back on these shows!
I hope there are some official recordings. These are gonna be a TRIP!

[TheEqualizer]

Dude. That's gonna be AWESOME.

[sockii]

Fuck YES.

Goddammit now I want to get to a Ben Hur show if at all possible. Especially as it looks like Italy and Cali are pretty much out for me...

[DirtyMartini]

Cool!

Although -- isn't (or, at least, wasn't) the narrator supposed to be narrating in each country's native language -- which in this case means English, French, German, Italian, Hungarian, Portuguese, and Spanish?

Latin and Aramaic sounding pretty easy by comparison.


ETA: Or am I misreading, and Stewart is just narrating the opening night(s) at the O2?

[Chatchka]

Aw man. Will there be a recording for sale?




(Somebody has to memorialize this show somehow. (was that out loud?) cough cough)

[Divemistress of the Dark]

!!!!!!!!!!

Are there still tickets to this thing...? Assuming, you know, that I start thinking about hocking stuff to get plane fare.

According to St. Jeff, Stewart is only narrating the London shows. Might be time to cash in my frequent flyer miles. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[IndyGirl]

Thanks for the info. I'm sure it will be a good time. Looking forward to hearing the reports about it.

[nancyrose]

VERY cool! Wish I could be there!

Wonder if he'll ad lib or stick to the script? Or read too fast!

[policefan]

Or read too fast!

Lol - that's what I was thinking.

This is all very exciting!

Con, you gotta really think about doing this! We need a US Nutter to represent and I can't *even* imagine how cool it's going to be to hear his voice booming out through the whole arena narrating such an epic tale that includes floods, animals, chariots and orgies!





(And, Stingo was afraid of having him mic'd during Tourzilla.....mwahahahahaha)

[Maud138]

Oh wow, I wanna be there! <looks at money-box and sees a BIG hole>

[iain28]

Me and Ali g are going on the 19th

[smax]

might have to reconsider the (almost made) decision not to go................ that WOULD be hilarious........ dinner tales BC

[conroy]

It's definitely doable. I have enough miles for the dates of the shows and my old boss just moved over there so I have a place to stay.
