Thread for Plague Carriers - Who's got a case of the Bradfields?

A number of us have caught a slight cold, suspected to have mysteriously appeared after hugging and handshaking JDB as much as we could, myself included. So who else willing to out themselves? Who's got a nasty case of the Bradfields? Does anyone think it's got something to do with post tour blues? Anyone have any remedies?

I've kept myself whacked out of my skull on tylenol and tea all day, and it seems effective, thought that took forever for me to figure out because when I woke up this morning, I felt completely hung over, complete with no motor skills, which is a motherfucker when you didn't get to partake in the process one normally undergoes to get there.

I was sick from Thursday night until Sunday Night. I met James on Tuesday in Philadelphia and did walk into the cold cold night on Wednesday while sweaty after the show but I still blame him

I had an awful cough on the Thursday and Friday after the Philly show, but that was my only symptom!

I was getting over the flu at the time. I'd feel pretty bad if I got him sick.

However, my husband has not been sick...

...I was going to edit this so it wouldn't sound like my husband had the fortune of kissing James, but you know what, screw it... I like that imagery

I've been sick as hell for a few days now and though I know I got it at the Toronto gig, it certainly wasn't from James. One of you kids probably gave it to him last week when you were manhadling him rather than the other way around.

Hope you all feel better soon and that includes Mr Bradfield!

The day after the Boston show, I couldn't speak, turn my head, or go eight seconds without having an intense coughing fit.

Also, James said that one of my friends got him ill, but I think we all know it was the other way around, most likely!

Love the thread title. Littlebabyeverything has a cold as well now. If she will insist on standing at the front and getting sweated on by James then what can she expect ...

He was doing a lot of spitting and nose-clearing as well so I'm attributing my cold to that. Like you said, we were in the firing line so what can we expect...

Ash and I are both really ill- not a pleasant twelve hour journey home!

Off to bed now...

It's probably a secret plan by Sean to ensure they never have to play again
