I once worked crowd control at a Prodigy gig right in front of the speakers front of stage. I refused the earplugs and it took weeks for my hearing to recover properly.
Yeah ears were ringing a bit in bed last night. Good gig although I'm not entirely sure what it is Keith does most of the time

I can't remember why they were shit tho. p.s. we finally, after over 2 years, had a General Echo that was totally rammed with people dancing last night!! it was a proper Victoria crowd too, a real mix of all the best people in walthamstow, all loving it.

Just had a quick chat with Holly by the bar! I often see them around Lancaster, they live near us and drink in some of the same pubs.
They’re absolutely lovely I DJ’d when they played at Offline in Brixton many years ago and they were utterly charming. Have followed them avidly since
Brilliant brilliant great night . Holly was fabulous - despite being sick in the sink this morning after drinking red wine with Phil Jupitus last night
Van I can take or leave these days, but Mott and the MC5 and Joan Jett? Plus James Taylor and good local band The Allnighters, and what would be some pleasant surprises among the ones I've not heard of. Unfortunately it's the big weekend for my students' exams and when I take 30 pieces of silver from Cambridge.
