Play For the Queen!!
To celebrate
HRH the Queen's Golden Jubilee Toploader went along to her
Garden party and played Dancing In The Moonlight!! Despite the
pressure of performing to millions of people all around the
world Toploader did themselves proud and were one of the first
acts to get everyone really into that party mood!! |
We've
Been Toploadered!!
Toploader's
lead guitarist, Julian Deane paid us a visit, and the friendly
little chap left a note on the message board to let us all
know!! And as if that isn't exciting enough, he commented that
they've just finished in the studio and are heading off to LA
to add the finishing touches to the new album!! How he
found his way here is a mystery, possibly whilst taking the
tour bus for a spin!!
He
also spotted a mistake (whoops!) I'll try and fix that soon!! |

Dan
And Gail Expecting A Baby!!
Gail Hipgrave
has confirmed that she is seven weeks pregnant and will be
expecting the newly wed couple's first baby in August around
the time of their first anniversary!! It is thought that
they would have rather kept the news private as Gail is only
seven weeks and still in the early stages of their pregnancy,
but due to speculation the couple decided to confirm the
pregnancy. A friend of the couple's said that Dan had been
keen to start a family, and was talking about having a baby
before they went on honeymoon!! A spokesman for the couple has
said that the couple are "very delighted" with the
news. |
