Graeme, I think you should supply me with Peanut Butter M&Ms when I attend your gigs.

See this is why Aberdeen is shite. A few pain in the arse punters ruining it for genuine gig lovers.

I can honestly say I tried shooshing a few people at gigs (in the deen), and lo and behold, it causes aggro.

I think people who use the excuse "I paid for my ticket, I can do what I want" should have a pint poured over them...I paid for my ticket, I should get to do what I want!....

(aggro?!....don't be daft!)

James Yorkstone was close to a perfect gig in the lemon tree....bar one gaiping goon at the back, sitting next to me. After 5 attempts to plead "can you be quiet please?" I kicked his chair, told him to STFU and had to move for he started talking louder (a grown man!)

Sorry about that, Phil. I was bang out of order.

Only kidding, of course!

With regards to the Mogwai gig, two points/questions:

1. This was Mogwai, right? The noisy, loud, punishing Mogwai? How loud did that guy have to talk to distract them over the noise they were making?

2. It was Bruce McComski, wasn't it? At least that's what I remember being told. And if this was the case, I forgive him.
