That chap was known as 'Lighthouse' to many people. I think he might have been viewed as a slightly dull 'hanger-on' or 'wannabe'. I can remember at least 5 or 6 occasions when I was working at Virgin and chatting with various 'scenesters', DJs, band members etc and they'd run away to hide...
I've got the Grooveyard / Ever flexi copied to MP3, both songs are great and I think The Grooveyard were probably the most entertaining local band from that era. Can I post sound files on here?
This was another good local flexi release:

I definitely saw The Chesterfields at The Concorde, but I'm not sure about The Richmond... possibly.
I remember that it was pissing down on the night of The Charlottes gig and I thought twice about going. I'd really been enjoying the album though so decided to drive and nurse a single pint all...
And this, is just truly spine-tinglingly wonderful;
Minisnap - New Broom
I love it so much because it's just the defintion of perfect pop, and they don't care that they're old and uncool, and the whole Bounce Around album is wonderful and can be bought cheap on Ebay... and I have a right old...
That's a great shout - always preferred Josef K to Orange Juice.
Let us not forget the New Zealand contingent;
The Chills - Rolling Moon. Saw this lot in Brighton 5 times and they were always fantatstic.
The Clean - Anything Could Happen. I remember buying ticket #2 to see them at The...
I think I responded to you on Anorak re the 'Meet up' thread... assuming that's you?
The Golden Valley site is a rip off re prices over the Indietracks weekend, but it's a lovely place to camp and it's a great little walk to the festival site - plenty of folk heading the same way usually. I'm...
Very nice. I'm making notes for the compilation I promised you; are you more a fan of the 'quieter, less abrasive' stuff rather than the 'noisier, more raucous' stuff?
Simply put; are you a Sarah fan or a Subway fan?
Thanks HKFC. What did the Amazon Fairy deliver this time?
Well well well, Jem Stone himself :)
Got any other goodies you'd like to post? I had a massive scrapbook full of flyers and tickets and stuff which I unceremoniously puked on one Christmas after over-doing the plonk. Other casualties...
I hate it soooo much when they do that. We are adults and don't need hints and snippets of next week's episode. If your drama is good enough we will be back. Grrrr!
The revenants are all hungry except Simon. None of the revenants wanted die (as far as we know) except for Simon.
Or did he...
Good stuff! will you be dragging a bunch of mates along? I went all alone to my first Indietracks, but it's a very friendly crowd and I had a bloody great time.
Hey Shaun, I posted about The Fireworks around about post 300 on here - https://nortr3nixy.nimpr.uk/showthread.php?268665-Live-Music-2013/page8
Had a photo of you too... except you're hidden behind Emma.
The campaign to have The Fireworks play Dick's Bar starts here...
