hookers green, delicate awol and politik. was so great. but outwith of locally i've yet to be excited as much... which is quite lame really. seeing as i have had better atmospheres but rubbish bands failed to have the mix yet.

although i don't like damien rices music that much, his gig of which one or two of my friends went to looked really ace. candles and a screen and stuff....

got to love stage props.

Muz was blown away by the helmet drummer, using Ride Cymbals as splashes ! he he...now that's hitting...

if anything, I'd have to say that people NEED TO SEE the young gods live, it is certainly an experience...

I wonder how that new LP on ipecac is coming on...I hope it happens....

That korn gig was another fuck up of the bill..

helmet on BEFORE "shit Biskitz" (or whatever they were called)...a fucking insult to music no doubt.

we have all forgotten the amazing Clutch at the lemon tree too !

(another fucked up billing order.... ".co.uk" on AFTER clutch...my balls shrank with embarrasment !

I thought Limp Bizkit were on first at least thats how i remember it.?(

infact im 100% sure it was that way around as Limp Bizkit were completely unheard of and hadn't even released there first album when they played with Korn.

That certainly was an ace gig thou and Marilyn Manson at the Barra's the next night was excellant too. :up:

could have been then, it was a while back...

perhaps I was just so enraged of the shite that I saw, it tainted my view of the whole gig !..

he he..

NIN in the barras, when downwrd spiral came out was amazing, 'reptile' was a particualr fave, because of the light show.

soundgarden at the barras (when TAD supported), 1 or 2 weeks after poor kurt cobain toped himself..."just like suicide"..what a wierd experience that was, everyone swaying, knowing full well that Kurt was gone for good...

Alice in chains in the barras, when the BBC recorded it...now that was ROCKTASTIC...

Buck 65 in Tron, last Triptych...now he's an entertainer for sure !
