I've seen it and it is lovely.
So long as your pic is stored online somewhere it is quite easy to post pics. But let me know if you need a host for it (I know you can do attachments at MOZ, but not here I'm afraid) and I can do it for you.
Oooh, and another thought! We have a pic album at our main site for members and James... er, that didn't sound right. Bloody Spikeless! members with James. Your pic could go in there if you'd like *rushes off to put Toy's pics there as well*

Drooling Pix - very undignified! ;D
About James not singing at the Melbourne con, Siobahn made a very cryptic comment at MoZ, something along the lines that she had a conversation with James prior to him getting on stage and that in that scenario a guitar wouldn't have been needed - she called him a little trickster! ;D

That was a subtle comment 'Toy hence I don't understand it. What did she mean? What did James mean? Why's he a trickster? Damn it, I never know what's going on and I'm not gonna say a word about James and his member, not a word.

Siobahn's keeping Mum about it Ditto so I haven't a clue. Obviously James had planned to do something but didn't - little monkey!

Tsk, shocking! Oh, well - he can't really get out of it at Halloween now it's all advertised and stuff! I hope, anyway. Shame you didn't get to hear him sing properly, though, Toy

One girl traded line from MacBeth with him. He seemed to want that conversation to continue forever. He was thoroughly enjoying himself. That was ME!!!! James and I did a whole MACBETH thing together. I am a drama teacher, and we got in to a great deal of depth about something we are both obviously really passionate about. It turned into a conversation about how Directors portray Shakespeare's works on screen. James said that his Macbeth would be better than Polanski's, and I nearly hugged him, because I teach the text in my classes. I said he had better portray Macbeth as a 'Warrior' as I felt Polanski's Macbeth was a wimp in parts, then James agreed saying "Yes! thats what I think!" then he said Macbeth was also a lover...well, you could hear everyone swoon behind us..and James laughed and quoted a line at me, I surprised him by quoting back, as Lady Macbeth, he just beamed! We prattled on about Baz Luhrman's Romeo and Juliet, and James said he hated Dicaprio's portrayal of Romeo. I disagreed with him, saying that the DiCaprio performance made the play more accessable to the masses. We were jumping up and down as we spoke..I am really passionate about Shakespeare and so is James! I went.."Yay we are both drama people!" and we both boinged around..It was a scream. It was at this point, that I became aware that it was bloody quiet, and James and I were still chatting, as if we were in the Pub! James laughed, also noticing, and said (to the audience) "Are we boring you? This is interesting to us, but maybe you guys are bored?" Everyone yelled.."No!!!" So he laughed and said "fine... Where were we?" I laughed and (I can't believe I did this...) and said.."Well James, I am enjoying this conversation, but others are waiting to ask you a question, so I had better go.." He looked really disappointed, bless him. I made a dramatic exit.."I am finished with you..You may go!" and spun on my heel and RAN away, leaving poor James. It was the best ten minute chat I ever had, I tell ya! So rare to meet a smart guy these days. I met him later in the autograph line, where he recognised me, "Hey! Macbeth Lady!" and signed TWO things, a book and CD for me. (Harry Dresden) I should have corrected him then, and told him my name (stoopid me!) I asked him if he wopuld like to teach my Drama class one day. He said, with a twinkle in his eye.."Sure! Call me when I finish with this.." and indicated the line of fans. I laughed, and went away. Must write and ask if he remembers his promise.

Sounds like fantastic fun... I'd love to talk to him about Macbeth... one of my favourite Shakespeare plays, though not number1 (which is Henry V)... I love talking Shakespeare ;D SHAKESPEARE ROCKS!! And James rocks alsmost as much !

My fave is Taming of the Shrew. James should do that with SMG. The onscreen chemistry they've got going, it'd be marvellous! I like Romeo and Juliet as well, but always cry for days. I only know the popular ones. I need to read more.

I am teaching The Merchant of Venice at the moment...A really great play that has a lot of really relevent themes about the quality of love and forgiveness.
I love Henry the fifth, and I went to the theatre a few weeks ago to see THE COMEDY OF ERRORS.
loody Hell, Laugh? I nearly did...(Aussie humor, forgive moi.) ;D

I love Henry V too, it's my favourite play weird, but there you go. Never cared much for R+J, silly play. Mum (ex-English teacher) refuses to acknowledge it as Shakespeare (in private, anyway!). I like most of them... But I hate Titus Andronicus, it's EVIL!!!!! Hmm... James as Henry V... yumm.

But it's excellent horror movie material Pix. ;D And the poetry of R&J is beautiful The RSC put on a production of CoE longer ago than I care to admit and it totally rocked! I must have seen it 6 or 7 times. ;D I think my using the term "rocked" kept this on topic, as JM must have uttered this in Oz a few times. If anyone would like a thread to discuss Shakie's finest/worst/whatever, I'd be very pleased. And it can be started in Artie Fartie
