the biggest positive surprise as a support band ( a semi-acoustic duo , actually ;-) for me this year were lovers electric as they supported o.m.d. on almost all their reunion tour dates except a few festival gigs etc. ! :-)

mmm.. interesting ; I'd see them more as a double act that one 'supporting' (ahem) the other .. did they do a duet?

That includes me!!

HoJo ( laugh ) used to gig a lot round Oxford during my student days, and I saw him many many times. Used to have this really cool guy that danced for him, chained up most of the time.
Fond memories of too many beers with Howard after some gigs in student bars, including one in the refectory at St Johns when he performed on a stage made up of dining tables!

I distinctly remember seeing him immediately after he got signed. He was VERY annoyed that the record company who signed him then turned round and said "all your stuff is crap". So, in order to get them his first single he had to write a "New Song". The rest, as they say,...

Insides supporting Slowdive, My Latest Novel supporting Arab Strap, and Adem supporting Explosions in the Sky are my picks.
