I most definitely will not be. However, I did go along to a talk he did at my local BMW dealer many years back, just after the first LWR trip, and it was fairly interesting if I remember right. That was an impromptu chat in comparison to this though. A few rows of chairs, a little talk/look at photos and questions afterwards. I assume it was just part of his promotional deal with BMW, you didn't pay to attend. Still. I guess he's a sleb now.

I considered going to see him in Buxton until I saw the price. £5 and I might have given it a go.

Doh... missed him at the Stables. Would have been worth a evening out.
Might catch him in Aylesbury.

I think it would be a good evening out Smile

This thread hasn't been as successful as anticipated. Where are all the hate comments?

Say what you want about him, but he made Motorcycling more mainstream and not so threatening.

I also think he can be quite entertaining..

Although he is only famous for being ewan's mate lol.

Interesting. At the local theatre Boorman's tickets for March still available. Yet Hairy Bikers sold out and arranged an extra date.

Not quite the same audience I know, still Charley seems to be making a career of it.

I did get to met him and did his caricature, really charming man

I like his writing style, I've read a lot of the books he's written and had trouble putting them down. I would be happy to meet him and chat about his adventures and films...but in a show?? Thinking

I went as I got the tickets as a Christmas present. I hadn't actually watched LWD or LWR or read any of his books, but the show was quite entertaining anyway.
I don't know how much the tickets were, but I'm wasn't fussed as I didn't have to pay anything.
