We could make our very own storybook entitled "Where's Mikey?", with
photos supplied by a certain gent, of ATF, AT5 and all the other forum
members.... but I wouldn't be able to find him, unless there was a bloke on a
bike!!

Yep....got to agree.....good to see you back and posting Zippy.
Nice pic but I too don't know who alot of the people are.....Banksy you seemed to know them all so give us a rundown if you get a min.
Meant to say that I thought the idea of an ATF fan day was brilliant.
I mentioned it again a while back now and it gives an opportunity to have a chat,some guest speakers,atf karaoke again,auctions/raffle etc etc,have a good drink etc etc.

ATF Kingston gig - |
What a day to remember. Everyone and his aunty were there! Was fantastic. |
Where do I start..... Ok, up early to wash up before Leo and Seagull arrived (one of my small confessions!), at around 11.15am Leo the Lion arrived at the Zippy residence, great to see him again after 3 years. Although he was too tall for my little 2 bedroom house. No sooner had he settled down with a latte and made friends with Rudy & Honey (Zippy cats!), then the door bell rang and Seagull had just landed, feathers in need of an urgent Earl Grey. Then the endless catching up on mission work and ATF chat. Leo and Seagull took a walk over to Tesco to change their currency into ready cash to buy me some chips later on! While at Tesco I got a call from Leo asking if I needed anything. 5 minutes later I had a call from Tim saying where is the house. I was confused !! Turned out to be Mr Turnip arriving for a cuppa until the venue was open. Was great to have the cute (yes, I said cute, sorry Andrea !!) drummer in the Zippy household. The Lion and Seagull arrived back and were ushered into the lounge to watch an ATF video while I made some chicken, mayo and salad sarnies and tea. By the time we had finished these it was time to throw all the plates and mugs in the washing up bowl (thanks to Peanut for washing up for me!), then Mr Turnip took the Lion, Seagull and the 3 boxes of Dalit candles in his car to the gig. Don't know how he fitted it all in with his drum kit ! |
Just after they left, Richster, Bryony (to fix my lappie) and Banksy (to collect the Dalit candles and borrow my sat nav) turned up, before we left for the gig. |
The usual mayhem surrounded us as we walked into the venue, equipment, bags etc all over the floor. Lucky it is all sorted out before the fans get there! Always amazes me how it all looks chaos at the time and then magically it all fits into place. |
Richster put the photo stand and his studio lights in place for after show band and fans photos, the band were doing a sound check. I set up the merchandise stand with Bryony, and then slowly people started to show up. David, the Hooligan's son was asking some people for interviews regarding his studies. There was no Zippy interview though : ( |
The band disappeared to replenish their energy, food wise, and the venue started to fill up with attendees. |
The atmosphere was fantastic, the music was brilliant and the fans were absolutely insane! A great audience and they obviously enjoyed themselves thoroughly. There were many forum and facebook fans there, and great to have us all at the same gig. I enjoyed it so much that I put myself back in pain and on crutches again! It was a rocking gig. |
We sold a lot of tee-shirts for Children in Need, thanks to you all. |
We need to sort out the names on the photos after the gig, so that we all know who we are. Well I know who I am anyway, I think! |
Thanks to Banksy and Dominion for letting this injured bird sit on their knees for the photo. Thanks to all who came, Dominion, Mr & Mrs Sharpie, Mr & Mrs Dickins, Karen Rose & son, John Holt, Andrew Mann, Alan Lee, my sisters Julie & Diane, my niece Peanut (Cher) and her friend Grem (Tom), Maggie, Leo the Lion for came over from South Africa on his travels and fitted 2 ATF gigs in, Seagull came over especially for the Kingston ATF gig, egged on by Mr Dominion (Mark) and a few others. I know I have missed some people out, so shout loud and add your name!! |
Special Zippy love and hugs to ATF, Pete, John, Tim, Rob & Ian for another fantastic gig.  |
Also to the guys who make it all happen behind the scenes, JP, Martin, Nick, Paul, Julian, promoter Michael Grimes. Thank you to the security guard who came to help when I thought someone had run out with a CD without paying. The guy took it into the toilet with him, lucky he bought it after! |
Some great photos came out of this gig, to view them go to www.radfoto.co.uk. |
Love and hugs to Richard for driving me to the ATF gigs and sharing the midnight McD's afterwards. Which is the usual ritual. |
|
Was great for all the fans to get together, lets do it again soon. |
|
This is Zippy signing off for the ATF Kingston gig. Well done guys.  |

I have two questions:
1)Why is your niece called "Peanut"? (or is that really her name?)
Er...Sorry, I only had one question 
Zippy, for goodness sake look after yourself, and let your knee get better.
Thanks for your great reviews
