My worry just now is that - as you'll have noticed - it was me that started this thread confirming Meat would be there, and this was info that I received very recently. It's 4 days before the event now and there's still no mention of him on the team lists, so I'm sat here shrinking into my seat hoping to God he does still go so that people don't have to cancel plans based on my info!

So you'll understand the request for any information possible!

The first thing that brought to light that Meat was playing this was the Mirror newspaper who mentioned Meat and Alice Cooper a couple of months ago. Then a few people PM'd him and he said either yes, or at the moment he was scheduled too (according to people who pm'd him) This is now a couple of months on things can change though. So who knows, but yes f two months ago he was appearing. Dont worry Lucy, it was the Mirror newspaper that first posted this that brought the whole thing to light, so its them to blame of anything, you were just sharing what you knew.

Right you are Chris. Just a suggestion ... has anyone thought about sending Meat a PM, asking if he was still going to be there ? I'm sure he's extremely busy right now, but he might answer your question if he gets a chance.

We talked about Alice Cooper a few months ago, but it wasn't about golf.

Lucy, don't panic just yet! According to the ITV website, the last 3 American team players will be announced live on Saturday. Don't know if it's the 'norm' for this sort of thing, but when my son was on holiday with one of the European Team players a few weeks ago, he still wasn't sure if he'd be in the team or not - at that time he was down as reserve, but now it's been announced in the past few days that he is in the European team..... and he seemed to be aware that Meat was in the line up.

**RadioMaster** · 23 Aug 2006, 10:12

I´d just suggest you to call whoever organizes this event and ask them if he´s in. I´m sure they´ll help, if they can.

Deb · 23 Aug 2006, 10:23

I can't see Meats name being in them 3 to be announced, for the simple reason, surely Meat would have to know if he's coming or not by now, as he'd have to fly here? I'd say the 2 or 3 names as it is in different places, are those of Americans that are already in Europe. And that they are trying to fill places of Americans that have since said they could do it, been unable to for what ever reasons. Such as Meat. I could be wrong here but it makes far more sense. I don't see what announcing 3 names at the last min will achieve for ITV. I'm, guessiing it just means they ahaen't got the 3 names themsleves yet.

I agree with this too. If Meat was in this line-up, I think his name would have been in that first list already. Maybe he couldn't make it, due to being busy promoting. It would be a shame if this is the case.

LucyK! · 23 Aug 2006, 10:37

Even if Meat is one of the names that's announced live on Saturday, that's still going to mean lots of people can't go - I certainly can't go down there on Saturday morning and pay for tickets, hotels and travel in the hope that it's him

Deb · 23 Aug 2006, 10:39

I agree Lucy

Why is everything always so uncertain lol. I'd like life to be uncomplicated

That would be far too easy!!

LucyK! · 23 Aug 2006, 10:54

In a last ditch attempt so find something out, I have emailed the very nice lady in charge of special events at Celtic Manor and explained the situation, ie, we want to go but can't pay for everything on the basis he MIGHT be there, ( went for the sympathy vote ) so hoping she'll be able to advise on way or the other...doubtful but no harm in asking

Pudding · 23 Aug 2006, 11:01

With the recent pictures of the band rehearsing on Pauls website, I highly doubt Meat's involvement with the All*Stars golf tournament, but you never know.

Pud

Deb · 23 Aug 2006, 11:01

LOl Sarah, but I need EASY.

I think that one's been tried Luc

They don't know anything either. Nor does the NEC, which makes me think even more that nobody knows who these other celebs are and that they are trying to fill places of those that can't now make it.

I didn't think of that...though just to be fussy, Paul says on the site that the rehearsal was just the 5 guys in the picture, non of whom are Meat...

Chris · 23 Aug 2006, 11:18

I got a number via a friend of a friend last night adn rang ITV this morning.

I think i spoke to everyone at the relevant production company apart from the tea lady

. The nice chap i finally spoke to confirmed that Meat was a possible for the show but that the American team had not yet informed the production company of the final line up.

He has promised to ring me as soon as the line up is confirmed so i shall post more if i get it.

Not much help I know but hey ho....

LucyK! · 23 Aug 2006, 11:23

Thanks for that Chris, at least we know not to expect anything for another couple of days...

Deb · 23 Aug 2006, 12:18

Listening to radio ulster now and they said they interviewed Meat from london yesterday

So looks like we have golf

All being the radio staions telling the truth lol and it wasnt on the fone from the USA

I'm recording the interview and will put it up in a few.

Deb

Deb · 23 Aug 2006, 12:26

Scrap that theory

Marion Ravens there and I don't see why she would be here now. Probably when they were here for the London Listening party

Deb · 23 Aug 2006, 12:29

theyre still saying live in a studio yesterday live in london

Maybe Marions playing golf as well

**RadioMaster** · 23 Aug 2006, 12:29

did anybody record it?

Deb · 23 Aug 2006, 12:31

Yeah me. Just checking there isnt more after this song then I'll put it online

Deb

**RadioMaster** · 23 Aug 2006, 12:37

Thanks Deb!

LucyK! · 23 Aug 2006, 13:40

Email from Celtic Manor;

"Hi Lucy,

It is heavily rumoured that he is attending but again i can not confirm this, as i am not told until they release the names on television on Saturday evening.

Sorry for any inconvenience "

Deb · 23 Aug 2006, 13:42

So I guess they want the suspense for the tv, which is wonderful for the viewers, but not for those planning to go lol

Oh I long for a simple life
