I am sad enough to have actually performed with Uncle John's Band. They were from Worthing.

I think they're dead now. We can only be grateful.

[Pantani]

Mogwai - At the original Concorde..

Did you see them at the freebutt on the first tour? It was absolutely ridiculous I couldn't hear anything for a week! They are still my all time favourite live band.

Other notable gigs, SFA on that tour where they had surround sound, f*** Buttons at Audio last year and Fight Like Apes every time I've seen them, they are proper mental.
