Soundsystem show at Heaven yeah?

Last night they did a soundsystem gig thingy until 2 after the main event but I had to go home 'cos I work n that

Uh huh. I caught them at Glade, and they cut it live, I think they started out very studio, but have got some serious tits on the Mc's now, not what I imagined at all. Extremely good, and a far cry from the quite watered down Little England show they put on for Richard and Judy way back.

I think Jitug had a clip of Dreadzone almost drowning tring to get into the Glade...I'll try and dig it out.

[JTG]

ah yes the Glade River Run

all good fun at the time but the clip caused a bit of upset given the effects of the wake on people's property n that

even so, a useful reminder of the biblical conditions we lived through last July. Fuck me that was an experience

Missed them at the Glade, partly due to the sheer confusion over who was on when on the chaotic Friday. Caught their second full band show at Glastonbury (think aqua and bees saw the first one the day before) and also saw them at Endorse It. Possibly saw them at Wychwood but to be fair they play so many festivals it all gets a bit muddled.

Dreadzone - the sound of summer

Stop being afraid to stand up on the side of truth and justice!

Fuck me that was an experience

Oddly, I enjoyed it twice as much as Bestival, where I had better weather, knew more people, got twice as fucked and loved thrice as many bands.

Very odd, adversity.

yeah, I'd go back and do it all again tomorrow - even the half dozen times I thought I really had got the Oxfam buggy stuck in the oceans of mud

wiskers keeps saying we should meet up sometime. I agree

I'm now getting lost in the various YouTube vids of Dreadzone live. I love Spee

one's my favourite

 

[chazegee]

Bristol Gluvine xmas mashup? I'll say..

 

[aqua]

spee is quite reserved in that clip JTG

I loved them best at OTT a couple of years ago, timings perfect, music great and small enough to have a really good laugh

 

[JTG]

spee is quite reserved in that clip JTG

yeah, probably 'cos he's singing as well - when he's filling in for Earl he doesn't get to be as manic as normal.

He did all the singing at Endorse It this year and I thought he was brilliant

 

[aqua]

I love him jumping around like a twat without fail always makes me feel alive and want to join in

bless his cotton socks

Well I still like em loads, especially live, and the latest album has some fucking good tracks as well.

Saw em several festivals this season (not at Bestival tho' ). They rock IMO ...

If someone comes up with the London gig date in December can they post it please ... <in rush at moment>

 

[JTG]

think it's still tba at the moment Will

I think they played at The Fridge recently. The posters are no longer up anyway.
