Don't know what his / her (wouldn't that be fun for the boys?) name is but the monkey was carried off stage at the end of the show by Javier Maas, presumably to be introduced to Fred, Vegas Ed and Butler.

Part of me feels really silly for saying this, but wouldn't it be nice if gallina's addition is a "girl"! The boys will be so happy! ;-)
I agree and I don't feel silly for saying it, for goodness sake I gave a 75 year old man a Monkey, was that silly, I don't think so!

Maybe she could be called "Constance", a friend for Butler.

You've been daft enough over the monkeys thus far so how can it be silly to wish for a little female company for the boys? :lol:

Albert Noonan (IrishAl) captured Fred/Ned/Ed in Bratislava, still helping Chris Bynum. Nice job.

I briefly caught sight of Fred at the Perth concert. I took a pic but I'm not sure it will be clear enough to post as I was at a very oblique angle. I will see what I've got when I get home (I'm currently at a hotel in Singapore en route back to the UK). There was no sign of Ned, Vegas Ed or Butler that I could see. I guess Fred is an extra special friend ....

OAKLAND, Dec 5, 2010
For: Mother MaryB

Here is your beloved Fred sitting on the stage after the doors opened, sizing up the audience for Joey's next shot.

Chris Bynum, Fred's devoted mentor continues to take excellent care of him.

Hi Diana,

Yes, your nephew (you were there at his first appearance :D ) has played his cards/violin right and is now coming into his own :D :D :D :D Jeez, I'd like to be able to hang around Chris's neck and get primo viewing privileges just cause I was hairy and cute - wait, I've got these 3 errant hairs that keep growing on my chin - does that count :roll: :lol:
