Seconded.
Well now I have a clear head but a very bruised body.
It was a great night, and the band all seemed pretty
jovial. Jaz in good form, kept describing KJ as a
'paki cornershop', Geordie the most friendly I've seen
him in, well, ever. Couldn't stop talking about his
new (young) girlfriend... And Raven's 'Don't panic -
I'm Islamic' t-shirt made me laugh. And I trust Joe is
having a good flight home right now, great to meet him
(and witness his drumming skills).

 What happened last night?

Well, first of all we bumped into the Jester himself
and chatted withhim and Raven. Jester really is a very
gentle kind man who wasgenuinely totally fecking
stunned by what was going on around him.
Hung around for a bit and then popped to the
Enterprise, walking downwith Jaz etc as he cuddled Joe
all the way down the street(ahhhhhhhhhhhh).

Bumped into the usual reprobates. Brian, you were
sober when I firstsaw you (more on that later).
Chapman and I compared dodgy things onour phones and
Bob Barathy looked just like Julian Cope circa St
Julian(albeit with dark hair).

Back to the Barfly, chats and then 45 minutes upstairs
waiting...............

Finally the band came on. Can't remember all the songs
but nothing new.Wardance, Primitive, Sun goes Down,
Asteroid, The Wait, Darknessbefore, Frenzy etc etc.
They played with fury. Jaz was very funny andamusing
and was having a whale of a time, Jester was up on the
stageagain, totally bewildered, a guy got on the stage
and got well andtrulty twatted by Raven who then
looked like he would kill for 20minutes. Pete West did
indeed launch in and it was quite a spectacle.Points
to Pete for having the guts and conviction to argue
(but we havea differing point of view).

Other highlights?

Mal Spoor's trousers falling down!
Woody in a trance.
Jamie trying to pull me into the throng
Jester's stage dive
A totally pissed Brian at the end of the night walking
the wrong waydown the road, doubling back and managing
to convey to Jerry and I thathe had to get to Victoria
by 1. It seems he made it.
Seeing all the family

Geordie looks very thin - one month off the booze and
he looks like heneeds a good meal. He told me that he
has a new lease of life and seemsgood.

Honestly? Killing Joke look like they are having fun
and reallyenjoying it. None of the dark menace that
used to prevail. It was agreat night, no new songs but
we knew that.

And Jester was there. That was what it was all about.
This week is a big week for him. All his treatment
starts and that isgoning to be very tough but I think
that he got a lot of love yestedayand I hope that
helps him in the coming days.

Well, that's it for now.

Back to pretending to work!
