June 19^th- After getting into Manchester in the wee hours we check into the hotel, I check email, shower and hit the hay... Totally zonked out I manage to sleep through until about 10am. Start uploading some of the pics from last nights show in Birmingham. Am really pleased with the results. Got on stage with the guys and walked around to some different vantage points and to the end of the runway thrust stage. Need to be careful though as Sav turns around really fast onstage and the headstock of his bass can be deadly! Am still tired but for shits and giggles I head down to the hotel gym for a workout. Viv Campbell is in there being put through the paces by the Def Lep trainer "Jean". He's fit a as a butchers dog and is so intense working out that it makes you tired just watching.

Head downstairs to the bar at the hotel later and hang out and eat some dinner with Uriah from Whitesnake. Everyone is pretty much doing their own thing today so we just hang out a little. Have a few beers and then head back up to the room and crash...
