My band is playing Saturday night, so fly over to Texas & celebrate the world not ending on Friday like the Mayan's predicted!

Bad luck with your venue jazzy. Your Promoters need to be strung up.

Rusty.. The Mayan's didn't predict the end of the world. What they did document was the end of the 13th b'ak'tun (or 'long count' - approx 5125 years). There's plenty of reading about this on the internet but USA today sums it up nicely...
Susan Milbrath, curator of Latin American Art and Archaeology at the Florida Museum of Natural History, stated that, We have no record or knowledge that [the Maya] would think the world would come to an end in 2012

So Jazzy, if you can't make it to texas on Saturday you could always come see Big Tuna in falkirk :-)

Jacko, I was joking about the Mayans. I don't put any stock in what they say because it is someone else's interpretation of what they were saying. A scientist from NASA said their circular calendar was like the old odometers on cars, once it reaches the end, it starts back over at zero! I'm sure the sun will rise tomorrow just like it did today & just like it will on Saturday. Have a great gig Saturday!
