^ I hope so! And just to be reckless, I'll bet 6 million toothpicks that this is for Amy's gig!

I don't think there's any such thing as a "secret" Zalon gig!

haha - true!

I'm almost 100 percent sure that they were rehearsing for Amy's gig.

Thought it was supposed to be last night. Maybe tonight?

Speaking of Heshima, anyone see him on X Factor last night? I don't follow his or Zalon's twitter (I imagine they mentioned it since they can't keep their traps shut about tooting their own horn), so imagine my surprise when his face showed up.

Well. some kind of wedding:

business tycoon Vivian Imerman threw a money-no-object bash for his daughter Bianca. In a gazebo of trailing white roses and to the strains of a 50-piece orchestra jetted in from Paris, Bianca, 26, exchanged vows with Swedish-born Pierre Ladlow, also 26. Imerman - ex-brother-in-law of property mogul Robert Tchenguiz - is estimated to have spent £5 million on the do.
High Street baron Sir Philip Green and his wife joined 600 guests, many of whom were flown in first-class at the host's expense from around the world.

The couple took their first dance as singer David Gray played his hit This Year's Love. Diva Amy Winehouse later took over microphone duties as the party continued into the early hours.
'It was an extraordinarily lavish celebration,' says a guest at Wrotham Park, Herts, where the wedding was organised by party planners Banana Split, whose clients also include the Sultan of Brunei. 'It had an English country-garden theme - there were flowers everywhere.'

Wrotham Park - only about a mile and a half from Amy's house: http://maps.google.c... United Kingdom
Was following Twitter Search last night hoping someone would tweet from the wedding, and about an hour before Zalon tweeted that the gig ended and they sang Amy a birthday song, somebody somewhere tweeted " omfg! new Amy Winehouse! song!"

Nevermind. Brain gone for the day.

I made a thread about it in the off toic section

Today they're all up in arms about him being a professional among amateurs... though personally I think it's cool he is doing it this way and not relying on who he knows to get ahead.

I bet this birthday gig is the 'secret' one Zalon was on about last week...

Exciting!

[Alan48]

No word anywhere about how it went, or if Amy had any sort of birthday party. I have a feeling it didn't go well. Zalon was so enthusiastic about the rehearsal & the sound check. Seems if Amy was as together as she was with the Specials, he would have said something. And guests at a fancy private event can be counted on to not speak ill of the entertainment. Have to wait for The Sun to bribe the help!

[pearljo]

I really hope Amy didn't fuck this up, too. lol

I'll go follow Lily. At least I'll have something
to do with my hands.
