  Yep,  by Faringdon Road park, small venue mind, so if a hot ticket, you'll need to take that into account.

Dave Gedge is a songwriting genius-I saw em in 92 in Folkestone and they were brilliant.George Best is one of my all-time favourite albums.If Mex says they're still brilliant live,thats good enough for me.Ill go see them at the Forum

Well I bought tickets in the expectation of seeing one of the finest goth bands of the generation, so I am a weeny bit gutted.

However, in for a penny, in for a pound.  I suppose I could give this indiebeat music you talk about a try.

How fat / bald / old was a. the band and b. the audience?


Title: Re: The Wedding Present
Post by: sonic youth on Monday, July 28, 2008, 20:46:34
a) not fat, not bald, old-ish. the bassist is quite hot.

b) about the same. i must have been the youngest there by some margin, bennett excluded


Title: Re: The Wedding Present
Post by: yeo on Monday, July 28, 2008, 20:54:04
haha the audience was mostly fat and old just like me,lots of hardcore standing about with folded arms.

Gedge looks almost the same as he always has,I dont think the other band members were originals.I dont remember there being a Girl in the Weddoes?Spacey reckoned that Gedge had been at the Grecian 2000.

Good mixture of old and new stuff played,quite liked the venue as well,perfect for a band like the Wedding Present.
