Was splendid.
Unfortunately I got very drunk quite quickly - I blame the marquee, if their drinks weren't so expensive I wouldn't have bought my own vodka. So I feel sick and my following descriptions won't be the most comprehensive...
Anyway, I was sober for the highlight of my evening which was the lovely i LiKE TRAiNS, who came on first and held everyone's attention with another beautiful set. If you haven't checked them out yet - WHY NOT? Go do it now www.iliketrains.co.uk
Then there was Battle, who were fantastic, and got everyone dancing to their particular brand of indie rock, do they sound like New Order? do they not? lets fight about it all the way home on the bus...... ;-)
Um, then there was Kano who were completely different again - shouty hip hop stuff with BIG bass. Which was nice.
Oooh and I got to meet Crablin, Sean and Anschul, all of whom were very nice boys, but my drunken ramblings may have persuaded them to avoid me in future....

Re: Last Night
Did Battle sound like New Order? ....No,no,no,no,no,no,no (well, maybe a little bit).
SCL - Hope your bacon sandwich is making you feel a bit better.

Everyone I met was lovely though and it was good to finally make a name/face crossover.

I thought Battle were a bit bland but OK.
Kano were surprisingly good - nice beats and a damn heavy bass. The guy at the back recording it onto his videophone was a bit distracting though.
And that vodka-smuggling thing is well pikey. Next time - you gonna go to the park with your white lightning beforehand?

At least you didn't resort to scraping butts out of ashtrays in order to construct rollies - which I know at least one person on this board has done...

See Pompey has it's lovely people too, it's not all about having babies at 12 and beating eachother up!
Re: Last Night
Portsmouth is the a-hole of the south - ships are shat Francewards whilst the cream floats to the top and nestles gently in Ocean Village.
SOUTHAMPTON... FUCK YEAH.
etc.

PORTSMOUTH SUCKS!!!
*runs and hides*
Re: Last Night
Sorry, but when compared to the joys of Southampton, it is but a pale, and somewhat shitty smelling, imitation.
Did the first railways go there? No, they were routed to Southampton.
Was the world conquered from there? No, at the time Southampton was the major port.
Did Harry stay there? No, he didn't, and he'll guide us to a finish above the Pompey scum.
So nerrrrrrr.
(*although I have plenty of friends from there and have nothing against them. The city, though, stinks. Gunwharf Quays should sink into the Solent and be done with it)

Re: Last Night
Southamptons exactly like Portsmouth but with less character and more chavs.
Re: Last Night
Southampton doesn't have an abundance of pehnomenally ugly architecture
Southampton actually harbours cultural and artistic life
Southampton is cleaner
Southampton is safer
Oh, and the residents are better. Obviously.

Re: Last Night
It's a crime they pulled down the Tricorn.
Re: Last Night
The Tricorn was wonderful because it had become synonymous with dire architecture. It was kind of a historical benchmark, a bit like Battersea power station or something like that - just too monstrous to be torn down.
