Default Yeah but
I was thinking a little Sax action from mr 'Lips Johnstone' (not named after his ability with reed based instruments) woulda made it better.

Some of the memories that will stay with me include, many karloff gigs, punk all dayer, pro evo 'tourny' and a gig by a band called Jor, which ended in myself and two other comrades crashing the elizium night afterwards and badgering the dj for enjoy the silence all night!!!

Think so.... Opaque skewed my perspective on reality forever though!

Hey folks. Have come to this thread a bit late bit wanted to chip in anyway!

Have unsurprisingly few memories from the final Narcosis/ Cosmica night the other week. Messy.
Loads of others tho - many mentioned already. Valhella, obviously, was pretty special to me and mebbe 4 other people or whatever. Sidca gigs were always pretty far out and could only really have worked properly in Drakes I reckon! (No one else would book Sidca! Their loss) That Opaque one in particular was great and has now led to a new project with myself and Lea Opaque down here in Glasgow. Saw so many great bands on random occasions - one that springs to mind was called something like the barnhouse effect(??) anyway, I wandered along drunk, alone and skint after being handed a flyer by dave and ended up going home with ringing ears, a belly full of beer and an excellent 10" single. Thanks everyone for that one.
One more memory - not a very good one actually was that time i somehow managed to glass Turganog at the end of a masamune set(!?!?) Less said about that one the better!
Fuck it, alls well that ends well.
Fangs for the mammaries.
Rory.

It's funny how Drakes just pops into the mind every once in a while.
