Because of how quick you go through, all I got to say was thanks ha ha. Pretty well organised though, as we were queuing, staff members came round and wrote our names on post-it notes stuck into the front of the book so when I handed it over he could write it straight away without messing about. They also had a member of his team take your phone so he could take plenty of photos of Bruce signing the book and that’s it, out the door!
As I walked out I walked passed the queue and it was still miles long, so I’m glad I left early enough, despite being shattered from last nights gig (gonna be flagging during tonight’s Halloween gig!) | Quote:

This sounds organized. It's a little impersonal but will in the end make a lot more people happy to get their signed copy | Quote:

I bet his hand is aching like mad tonight seeing as he’s doing 2 today! | Quote:
