those 8x10s

"And they was using up all kinds of cop equipment that they had hanging around the police officer's station. They was taking plaster tire tracks, foot prints, dog smelling prints, and they took twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy photographs with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each one was to be used as evidence against us.  Took pictures of the approach, the getaway, the northwest corner the southwest corner and that's not to mention the aerial photography."
 
Okay, thank you. :D

While we're talking about Flight 666, what's the deal with the road crew singing "you're shit and you know you are" to the stewardesses?

It's a very English thing to see some poor soul make a mistake in public, or something even less trivial, and then have that sung to them. It's something adopted from the football terraces were a player that, for example, misses a "sitter" will have opposition fans singing that to them. I can't remember what the stewardesses did to prompt that song, though.

I can't remember them doing anything, really.  I wondered about the singing myself, but figured it was something like what you said.

I'm pretty certain the stage crew messed with the stewardesses while they were giving the security instructions and if they laughed, stuttered or didn't keep a straight face they would sing.
 
Sorry for the thread hijack, mate! Here's an educated guess - those photos were probably for the official fan club members, so a way to get it would be to join up. But I think they aren't that fast with shipping the stuff, at least so I've heard several times.
 
Not usually.

On the other hand, they have been known to wander around wherever they're playing sometimes - although I think that's more in Europe than USA. A few folks from this forum have met them in local pubs and such.
 
I met Steve outside his hotel in Paris in 2008. Well, "met" is a bit of an overstatement, but I had my photo taken with him. Also, they do wander around in local bars here and there, I know several people who met the guys there. There's never a guarantee, though.
