Well, what a weekend, got home late on Tuesday, had to put in a 12-hour day
at work yesterday and an early morning today, this is the first chance I've
had
to read the er... 100+ excitable emails.

The Friday gig for me was the ultimate - the sound was great, and an almost
uninterrupted run through What's This For.. every song was stunning, and it
may
be because they were a novelty but Madness, Who Told You How and Exit
were the highlights. Then again, Follow The Leaders and Unspeakable were
massive also, ah fuck it it was all brilliant. SO36 and Tomorrow's World...
you
get the idea. The boys were on form and then some. The original chemistry
was obviously bubbling over.

Saturday, well, if we're splitting hairs then I'd say I was a bit
disappointed that
we didn't get a significant chunk of Pandemonium - only KJ can go so far
as to print what they are going to play on the damn gig ticket and then not
play it! No Jana, Mathematics or Millennium, damn it. Plus the sound wasn't
quite
as clear as Friday, but FUCKING HELL Turn To Red was fantastic. And Pandys.
Could of done without the repeat of some songs from Friday - no, not
Wardance
again please, play Nervous System! But still... a couple of nights to
remember.
You lot over the pond are in for a treat.

Wish, too, we could have had a spare night in the pub - so many I only
managed
a quick nod or hello to - but thanks to everyone for a good laugh! Antoni,
did we
meet on the tube after the Friday gig? I was a bit the worse for wear then I
must
admit, have a vague memory of us staggering up escalators.
Anyways, it's been a pleasure, until the next time
