Oh my goodness....It's been a long time..Hello to all the old board members (it's really weird seeing all the old names!) & hello & welcome to all the newbies. My name is Alison, I'm from Blackpool & have been obsessed with these five men since 1997 when I saw them at the Phoenix festival in Stratford-Upon-Avon.

So uhm yeah. I'm Edgar. Been a fan since 1997. Been in all Embrace forums and message boards across the years though I haven't really been a constant poster, more of a lurker really.
Anyone remember when Drawn From Memory was coming out and you had to look for the songs across many different websites? Was remembering that.....
Oh I'm from Mexico. Hi everyone.

Hi - I'm David - like a few others I've been on most of the Embrace boards over the years. Not a regular poster but I contributed a bit - at Christmas I was fondly remembering the Embrace Advent Calendar we used to do. Been a fan from the start really - still have all the pre-The Good Will Out EPs on CD somewhere in a box in the attic. Seen the band many times, none more special than a tiny gig in San Francisco (supported by Longview and Augustana) just after Out Of Nothing came out. Delighted to have them back.

Surprised it's taken me so long to come on here to be honest. Although I'm 99% sure I've posted on something to similar to this in the past? Has there been previous boards in the past??
Anyway, I'm dan, 23. From Manchester. Lifelong embrace fan, have been absolutely besotted with them since my early teens when I was back in school.
Absolutely thrilled to see the boys back!

Hello old friends and new ! Was a long time user of the old forum during the "golden years". Even though I stopped posting years ago, there was many a time over the last 5 or 6 years that I would have a lurking browse on the forum "just" in case there was some news. Many an evening (and night time) spent on the old forum, some great memories. When the old forum disappeared it was like losing a comfort blanket. When the news finally came that the band were back it was brilliant. So glad to see them back together, it makes the wait worthwhile.
Hello again to everyone.

Hello everyone.
I'm Tony. I used to post on the old boards from the time of the third album up until about 7 years ago, but that was under a different moniker. I was hardly the most prolific of posters however. It's good to be back and see some old names, but it's mainly just great to see the board so active again.

Hi folks, as per the majority I used to frequent the board back in the day and the very irreverent chat would pass many an hour in my then terrible job.
Embrace back? Never thought id see the day. Ridiculous amount of Embrace memories over the years, been with me through good times and bad.
Still listen to the old stuff weekly, now don't get me wrong its great they're back but feel like it's a beautiful 'banked' chapter of my life and have trepidation about new stuff... I don't know, maybe I'm just knocking on! Will be superb to see them live again, many happy memories with the missus at gigs over the years.

Hi Everyone, I used to lurk in the shadows on the board many moons ago but met up with several of the old boarders at various Embrace gigs/events at that time...most memorable being Danny's birthday party in Camden....had a great night dancing with Jo and the two Hayleys......are they still here?
