`Lux Aeterna` from the 2001 A Space Odyssey Soundtrack used to get used as intro music around 85/86 - Usually after a blast of Gary Glitters `Leader Of
The Gang` I seem to recall. Just as the lights went down and all the Punks did that thing where they flew through the crowd in a mob elbowing everyone out of
the way sending drinks flying everywhere to storm down the front. Those are the blokes that you now see occasionally at KJ gigs limping past you with walking sticks.
Seem to remember Jaz once mentioning being a fan of Clockwork Orange as well. Certainly looked a bit `Alex` around 1983 (IE Lets All Go.. video)

I tell you what else has changed as well- I never ever get people coming up to me at gigs asking for ` a sip of your beer please mate` before downing half the thing in a second like a medieval peasant and giving me back an extremely light glass--which was somewhat of a regular occurrence back in the day.

Just for the record. The bit about Killing Joke using it before the film
was a joke hence the !!!!!!!

"The Eyes Wide Shut music is by Jocelyn Pook and its called Masked Ball from
Flood which is quite a good album. Killing Joke used it way before the
film!!!!!"
I don't want to start shit; only to respectfully point out that "Masked
Ball" by Jocelyn Pook was written specifically for the... masked ball scene
in "Eyes Wide Shut" and was based on a previous piece she had written called
"Backwards Priests" in 1997. Her album "Flood" came out in 1999, the same
year as the movie. KJ often mix it with the "Blade Runner" track by
Vangelis.
As always, I welcome rebuttals from the better informed.

Went with my mate Ben, who isn't a massive kj fan, but he does like Jah
Wobble and we got into the venue just before Wobble came on stage. Id never
seen him live before. Brilliant support act for killing joke, very
entertaining and the crowd seemed appreciative.
I must admit, Ive fallen out of love with killing joke in recent years. Cant
say that the last few albums have really done much for me, apart from the
odd couple of songs here and there. My initial reaction to the new album was
much the same. However, ive been listening to it a lot while driving about
for work and its really grown on me. Some of the tracks which I initially
rejected have now become firm favourites. Into the Unknown for one. Live,
this was the highlight of my night. Disappointed they didn't play Delete,
which is definitely the best on the album in my opinion. Exorcism was
fantastic, also Fall of Because and Madness, but I don't think anyone would
be too disappointed if they dropped Asteroid from the set entirely.
We were standing just inside the ring of pillars and the sound there wasn't
too bad actually. Big Paul sounded immense, vocals were clear, Geordie could
have been a little higher in the mix but you could still hear what he was
doing, Youth was just a rumble though. Not the best sound but Ive heard them
sounding a lot worse.
Bumped into Antoni outside for a brief chat then headed back to Bens place
just off Holloway Road, where we proceeded to get right royally shit-faced
and I finally crashed out on the floor about 4 o'clock. Got up the next day
to find not one, but TWO parking tickets on my car! 130 fucking quid!
Oh well, we still had a great night

Wardance
Into The Unknown

Turn To Red
Madness
Love Like Blood
Pandemonium
I was seated upstairs - front seat, great view, but still slightly sad not
to be getting sweaty and battered down the front.
The track I was most looking forward to, based on recent setlists, was
Delete, so it was a bit galling that they dropped it... on the other hand,
several less-recent numbers were absolute stormers, so overall no
complaints! Particularly good ones for me were:
Fall of Because (the first KJ track that really grabbed me, all those years
ago)
Eighties
Beautiful Dead
I am the Virus
Change
Pssyche
Contrary to expectations, I rather enjoyed Wardance and Pandemonium. The
former certainly got a large section of the crowd going.
The sound was a bit disappointing. Too loud, I thought, and Geordie's
guitar didn't really come through in all its glory. Especially
disappointing for LLB, which lives and dies on the guitar.
Best thing was probably having such a great view of the whole band, all the
way back to Big Paul. He was absolutely pounding those drums... fearsome
energy all the way through.
Cheers,
Jamie

Alas, I can buy Jaz as a Stanley Kubrick fan. I don't understand it, but it sort of makes sense.

Film not Kubrick's best, but great track and perfect use of it by the band.
