Midnight at Manchester

Gailh · #1 07-20-2006, 02:51 PM

I was just listening to this for the first time in ages and remembered the lovely bluesy intro that Christine plays for You Make Loving Fun.

Has anyone else noticed this?

What's Midnight At Manchester?

Are you referring to the 1990 Manchester bootleg?

Looks like someone's been hitting the chocolate hobnobs again!

Yes I think it's also called Next Stop Maine Road - I imagine it's the same one.

OK, I've heard of that title. I've even seen that bootleg on eBay. I have it too, although I got it in a trade.

There are 2 unusual things about that bootleg. Stevie dedicated Lanslide to John Perfect, Christine's brother. And, she messed up the lyrics on Gold Dust Woman. She sang "Take your Silver Spring" instead of "Take your Silver Spoon."

I'll have to have a listen to the bluesy intro to "You Make Loving Fun" again.

Yeah sure.

By the way, you don't happen to work for the company that makes those darn hobnobs?

You've given quite a few online plugs for those chocolate hobnobs these last few years.

In my own defence I didn't bring them up this time.

It was all Homer's fault!

I do see it as my mission in life to get them into as many posts as I can.

Incidentally I used to live near the United Biscuits factory which made McVities biscuits but I don't think they made hobnobs at that time. They did however make chocolate digestives which are scrummy. Some of my friends had summer jobs there and apparently they let you eat as many biscuits as you liked! the theory was that most people ate loads of them at first and then couldn't stand the sight of them for the rest of their lives!
