It's not a convention without cosplay.

I'm going if Coldplay are going to be there  ;)

:D :laugh:
I think the ticket price might be slightly higher if Coldplay were going to be dropping by...   ;)

A tubular bell?

Or perhaps the more buff guys here on tub.net could turn up in replica 'Celtic Warrior' gear a la Mike on the Voyager album cover. (Now there's a thought...)
Or perhaps not.  ;)

It would be great for the people who are able to attend if Mike could record a short Sorry I can't be there video... Maybe even play a bit of acoustic as well..possibly something from the new album.
That would make it truly memorable.

My Two cents  :)

Hope everyone going enjoys the day.

Maybe Jeff Wayne could make us a giant 'virtual' Mike Oldfield!

Good suggestions Milanmber. We have asked if a Skype or video message might be a possibility.

:)  Yes it is very good feeling from what you say  :) thank you!
And yes this is very good idea  :)

Now not before a long time ago in YouTube appear new rare interview from Mike what i did not never watched before. It was the Songs Of Distant Earth official interview copied from some were from glitch video tape where I saw a lot of things interested me find it very exciting ! The studio, the digital mixer  (digital I guess ) and two rack-versions of Akai S 1000 samplers! I always was wondering with what instruments was recorded that wonderful masterpiece!! this is my favorite album :) SO I will go to something: Mike Oldfield concert or some other convention or other Tubular happening but typically such things : rare, hot new videos, some exciting interview, exciting find or just very nice surprise of new album what i do not expect are make me happy

I shall be there.
If anyone wants to come and say hi, do look out for a slim girl with long reddish hair wearing a pale blue T-shirt (with a tubular bell on it of course! ) and indigo jeans.

Quick note to say that I can't be there after all, I'm afraid. Hope it's a great success on the day.

I'll be with my black TB tee shirt,black trousers and colorful trainers.
