Yes... they had their own crew consisting of several people with hand helds. As far as I know, local media wasn't allowed into the show.

when I heard that title I guessed it was a pun on "in for me".
Its probably over the heads of anyone who doesnt live in the UK, but I reckoned it was a tip of the hat to the late Kenneth Williams' in the 60's British comedy film "Carry On Cleo" where he was playing Julius Caesar. He's about to get murdered and turns to the camera and moans the immortal line "Infamy! Infamy! They've all got it Infamy!"
Everyone in the UK over the age of about 35-40 would be familiar with that famous line, and with his love for the old English comedy tradition, I've no doubt thats where Keith got the inspiration from.
That was the first thing that occurred to me as well 
I don't remember Max Miller, though. Mind you, with the number of repeats the Carry Ons have had, I should think 95% of the TOTAL population know the line.

You're right. Just checked google, and there's 1,330 entries for that Kenneth Williams line line alone. LOL
Keith does an absolutely brilliant Max Miller impersonation, you know.
Mick, Keith & Bill did a series of BBC radio interviews when Undercover came out and Keith was talking to Andy Peebles about his British Airways flight to London and they showed this old Max Miller "live at the holborn empire" film on the flight - and he launches into this routine for a couple of minutes. Its hilarious.

We always think about the music first, but I think it's important for me to say that Mick as "Mick" was truly amazing at the Phoenix. He is THE frontman of rock 'n' roll and he proved it once again... mesmerizing. He wasn't doing any of those stadium gestures where he appears to be directing traffic (as someone here once described it) ...he was moving all night with those teasing turns, that bouncy leg, thrusting head, and clapping his hands overhead. It's very hard to take your eyes off of him, especially when you're so close that you make eye contact.
An unbelievable night. |
