Not strictly a gig, it was A Love From Outer Space: club night that Andy Weatherall and Sean Johnston started that Sean still does. Excellent tunes.

We were up the front with a surprising amount of the young people. I had fully expected it to be Friends of the Elderly.

Also on the bus! Ears readied.

Yeah, they finally got a bit of serious welly out of the Stadium PA at the end. Lovely 3D slabs of sound.

Freezing queue. Character-building.

TURN IT UP A BIT KEV MY TROUSERS HAVEN'T STARTED VIBRATING YET.

I didn't actually think they were that loud on Weds! Though in fairness I did see SUNN O))) a couple of weeks ago who may have recalibrated my volume standards a bit.

Yeah, was just going to say you perceive that level of wall of sound with way more than your ears, it kind of veers into "massage" territory.

Loads of them ending up in A&E with nasty injuries (as well as people they've collided with). They're accidents waiting to happen.

Literally the most soothing place I've ever been in.

Loved it! 13yo in particular was absolutely rapt for both acts (and v pleased to see "Ellie who has played my drums"). Amazing night of music, and the sound in the NCH was gorgeous.

V much looking forward to this (also bringing teenage offspring).

I am definitely going to give that a go.

Omg that looks *delicious*. Where did you get this cheesy bread treat?

I mentioned earlier that they chew on Nile Crocodiles - I wasn't kidding, baby Hippos use them as teething rings since the texture of their scales is satisfying to gum.

Just this 12' long razor-toothed archosaur, sitting there going "stay calm, Clarence, you survived the asteroid, you can do this."

Excellent work!

Ah shite Enna, I'm really sorry. I hope you get a decent package and that you find something else good soon.
