Thanks everyone for the weekend. Was nice to meet new people (although not nearly as many as I'd have liked) and catch up with the old people. Always a pleasure: Craig, Martin, Andreas, Michaela, Peter, Brian, Gem, Rob. Nice to meet you at last Garry and also Mr Ilektrik (thanks for the CD!). Really enjoyed talking to you Brigid - hope to see you again somewhere sometime.
Thanks to John, all the players/VJs, and everyone who organised this for us!
A storming gig for the most part, nice to have lots of people on stage for a change, and the films were (as ever) fascinating - these on their own would make nice extras on a possible future DVD release *cough*. I enjoyed all the DJs although I still really don't "get" the art of DJing. Gary looked like he was really enjoying himself (and it takes some humour/humility/gratitude to play "Where's Your Head At" or maybe he actually likes that monstrosity). I also thought Mark Jones handled the vinyl malfunction situation with grace, confidence and a sense of fun.
Finally, I bumped into someone from my neck of the woods, quite randomly, the wife of a bass player I was in a band with back in the day. At that point I knew it was all a dream.
Hi, Mark--yes, it was nice meeting and talking with you too! I'm sure we'll meet up again--I seem determined to spend my life savings going to see Mr. Foxx.
I owe you a drink next time!
