Just got home after spending three hours on a bus from Bexhill to Brighton. Reaffirmed my love for that group. Amazing! Full report tomorrow. xxx -------------------- "Basically, I like to discuss things right down the line and I don't agree with anybody..."

A GENERAL bummer.... but in particular? Wish I knew. The Consortium will sort this out.

He was enjoying himself! & to our great benefit.

Fall-tinted beer goggles or not, I don't think I've seen better or at least enjoyed myself more from the beach to the top of the De La Warr to the lift home. 1000 thanks Sudost36 (is it?) & Andy.

Good to meet you plastic man & see you Sam.

Has there ever been a better Over! Over! than that? Or guest vocs Tommy Shooter?

I hope I hear this gig again ...

Have I missed something? Nice to see you, tobydynamik and johnnymills and others. Great pub, The Sportsman, before the gig. -------------------- Trust me...I know what I'm doing!

All i wanted was a quiet " coke " in The Sportsman and some sad sod had to spill the beans that it was actually BOC that was in da house. The popular music band " The fall " and all and sundried tomms got wind of this and wadda you know......................all wanting a piece of the BOC action.

Not the best I've seen them but I had my money's worth & an excellent day out. -------------------- chip grind would be like digital hardcore with faster, noisier gameboy sounds. something for those fear of god fans on the dancefloor. can't be sure though... i made it up.

They should have a word with Islington Academy about selling out cos they could ha' got another 200 in easily - sorry to all those who couldnt make it. Amusing to see the local plods out in force (even including some plain clothes characters! - what on earth did they expect??) However it was really nice to do fish n chips and a few Peronis on the beach beforehand, with a great bunch of people. -------------------- last orders 'alf past ten

Mr P kicked off the mosh, then it got going.

This may have been a privincial crowd Chris, but this was far better than the Astoria.

London crowds think they know it all, where as us bumpkins just want to be entertained.

It worked for me, in a relaxed kind of way.
