Where did you bump into him?

 

Saw him in concert about a year ago, after the gig he spent time chatting to a few of us. Nice guy but to be honest came across a little strange, managed to get my CD's signed :(

That one was 1997, courtesy of the Dance tent at Glasto. Can't remember much about it though...Banco are good and I'd make an effort to see Massive Attack again. That was also around the same time as my first and long awaited Orbital experience - off to dig out my scratched copy of the Green Album now :D Finished up my Orbital following with their last ever UK gig at Brixton Academy.

 

Edit; OMG - I've just realised how old I am.................that little trio was 11 years ago! I now also seem to be into the likes of Jade Gallagher, Jane Taylor, Newton Faulkner etc am I mellowing? Although I did drive home last night exploiting the excellent ICE in the A8 with a rather fine rendition of Insomnia (Faithless) - which does kinda defeat the object of the 2 hour yoga session I'd just been to.... ;)

Ha ha!! I thought I was getting old cos more and more I listen to rockabilly and swing etc. Then all of a sudden i get back to the likes of Unsane, Mastodon, The Haunted etc. Napalm Death are on at the Charlotte in November I think if anyone is interested :D seriously....

 

I was gonna real of a load of bands of more recent years that I hate that seem popular for some unknown reason but think that rant would get out of hand!!

 

Also have been playing in bands for years and must admit on the whole its been ace, met some top people from all over the world. The latest venture. '66 Wall Of Death, will be unleashed soon enough. If you fancy being deafened and amazed by our sheer lack of talent feel free to attend ;)

This is my list in approximately reverse order of most recently seeing them (quite a few *2s along the way). Is eclectic the right word? I know I saw quite a few more mostly punk bands in the late 70's and early 80's, but I can't recall - it's probably due to alchohol.
