Woot, new stuff!!
Well for those who don't know, my name is Liana, I just turned 19 and I am from the South-East coast of Queensland in Australia. I kinda like Brian Setzer.. just a little bit And I am VERY excited about this upcoming Australian tour!.. Random facts about me that are non-setzer related - I am an actor and I am in my second year of a secondary teaching degree majoring in drama and english.. I started playing the drums when I was about 9 yrs old and guitar only a few years ago.. I have a dog named Ozzie and I can juggle
Nice meeting you all
Now who's next?
Kid.

Ok, I'll give it a go! Name's Pete and I'm married to Tania. I have 2 daughters, Ella Rose and Allegra. Love the Cats and all their solo projects. I play a little guitar and love to muck around with cars. I run a cafe` and love my job. I've been into the Cats since I was 12-13 I guess and never looked back. Love to chat with all sorts of people, trust me I'm not judgemental! I think Tommy does an awesome job and Budgie is a funny bastard! Any questions, feel free to ask! Cheers Pete.

Hi all! I'm Heather, a "Setzerholic" from the land of beer, bratwurst, and cheese. (And contrary to popular thought, our cows are VERY HAPPY). I'm the proud mom to two incredible boys, and been married to my wonderful hubby since 1995. I've been a Setzer fan since the start of MTV. I love fast cars (vintage American muscle, please), dancing, great conversations, and enjoying life.
I'm amazed at the wealth of knowledge that folks have and can recall about various Setzer albums, concerts, and interviews. Nope, not me. I can remember shows that I've seen, and the albums that I own, but the details are all fuzzy. I'll leave the details up to the experts.
Oh, and I can ride a unicycle.
Keep smiling, hrg

I'm Patrick from sunny Holland! I started playing guitar about 1977/78....man I'm old! So I'm 43 now. Actually I like all kinds of music (from the Beatles, Eagles, ABBA, ACDC.....even The Carpenters) but first of all I'm a Brian Setzer fan since Runaway Boys! I have about 8 guitars lying in the house and drive a stunning Hyundai Excel from 2001. Married and two kids, girl 11 and boy 7. If you wanna see me play just click below!

Hello from Sweden! My name is Andreas, I'm 32 and love music from 50's-60's with Buddy Holly as a favourite, and of course Stray Cats and Brian Setzer. I work at a nuclear power plant as an maintenance engineer, like Homer you know ;-) I have a beautiful wife and a wonderful 9 months old daughter.
I've been a fan of Brian since the day my brother played "Gina" when I was around 10. After watching the video "Rock tokyo" abot 500 times I started to dream about a Gretsch guitar. Well some years later, I bought a 58' Anniversary that I really love! Thanks you Brian for that
I saw Brian and the nashvillans 2005, but I have never seen Stray Cats, Until soon....29 august they play in Stockholm Sweden. My brother and I are going, we have actually booked a room at the hotell where the show is! My dream would come true if I could meet the Stray Cats before the show, just to say hi. Brian are you reading this
Thanks Tommy for running this wonderful webside and fan forum! Cheers, Andreas

Hi there! My name is Kat. I live in southern california. I've been married for 24 years, have a 21 year old son and a 13 year old daughter.
I've loved the Stray Cats (oops! I used "the") since the 80's. I also love to listen to all the solo stuff by all three cats. My hobbies are sewing, watching funny movies, sitting on my ass at the dumb computer, and getting as much ink as I can (10 tats so far).
I can't wait until July 22!! I have never been able to get to any concert of Stray Cats (no "the" this time ), BSO, Lee Rocker, or Slim Jim concerts. It never seemed to work out for me. My daughter entered Jr. High this year, and there were a lot of greasers at her school (my avatar is a picture I took of her - isn't she cute?). So the cool thing is that I will be able to share this last Stray Cats concert with her! Maybe this was the reason I have never made it to one of their concerts, it was meant for me to share this with her.
Love this forum! Thanks for all you do for us Tommy!!!

Hello all, I am Rob and I live in So Cal. Old cars are great but old bikes are the bomb! I have been a Cats fan since the 80's and still see the BSO every Christmas. I enjoy getting a large group together for a show so I can share a great time with others (we had 21 people at the Coachella Christmas show last year.) I play a King Double Bass and have hung with Lee a few times. I bought a Gretsch last year with the hopes of getting Brian to sign it for me, Lee Signed my bass with a knife! I will be attending this years So Cal Show with my wife, 2 teenage boys, and my Mom (who loves the Cats and the BSO also). A family that rocks together stays together!
See you on the 22nd!

Hi all, I'm Andi. Most people probably already read my long ass story over here:
I was born in Los Angeles, raised in San Diego, now living in Queensland, Australia (and actually, just got my Australian citizenship a couple weeks ago - I'm now a dual Aussie/Yank!) I'll be 35 in September. I'm married to Dean, an original Aussie- we celebrate 10 years of marriage in November. Here's the handsome devil now:

Hey Andi, how did you get the youtube video up here on the board?
Umm.. okay other random stuff about me - I ride horses and have done so my whole life, in my display pic is Marley, he's not our horse but he likes to nibble on my Stray Cats shirt Just the other night I broke down on the side of the road (cracked radiator top tank or something or other).. to top it off I then locked myself out of the car (this is in darkness) with my mobile and money left in the car so I had to walk to the nearest petrol station to use a phone.. anyway, things like that happen to me all the time.. I collect pez dispensers and have 300 of the little suckers now, and still adding more every week..
And I talk alot...

Hey Kid, when you're posting a reply just click the little icon that looks like a strip of film, next to the flash icon. Works a treat. Not sure why the image insert doesn't work though, it's worked just fine before

Hi, my name is Budgie and I'm a Saggitarius. My measurements are 46-38-40. I like long walks on the beach at sunset, medium rare steaks & the Mets. My turn-ons are chicks who'll clean my apartment, Jennifer Love Hewitt's cleavage & medium rare steaks. My turn-offs are chicks who smoke (as opposed to smokin' chicks!), exercise & burnt steaks. I'm looking for a chick with Jennifer Love Hewitt's cleavage to clean my house, make me steaks and watch Mets games with me. Smokers need not apply.

I am Jay, 23 years old, Stray Cats fan for a long enough time that I can't remember when I first heard them anymore, haha. Grew up in Wellington, NZ, now living in Auckland, NZ. Dad is a drag racer, so grew up around lots of fast cars, greasers and rock n roll. I'm a Youth Worker, and own far too many pairs of shoes. I also have bad insomnia, so I'll post at mental times, ignore me.

There's only two things you need to know:
