There was someone behind me kicking my ankles with a lot of deliberation, but you know what, I don't care. I'm big enough that I'm bloody hard to move when I'm somewhere I want to be, and three rows back straight in front of Nicky Wire is always going to be a hard place to shift me from (until my poor old moby dies from the heat and has to be taken away and coaxed back into life ...)

Nice to meet amalthea.I didn't get a chance to chat to youagain once we got inside.Glad you had a good time
Ha ha, it was good to have someone to share barrier/ door anxieties with or I might have gone into meltdown. Bloody hell: "it's ok, that plant's in a pot so it must be on a shelf". Oh dear.

As well as thinking our door wouldn't be opened someone thought there was a 12ft plant behind it I can laugh about it now,but not yesterday.

Good musicians but dull songs. And why did the lead singer not only have a Flock Of Seagulls hair cut but also kept on holding his guitar under his chin?! I shouted out 'Hold your guitar properly, you tit!' on several occasions.

Her hair was way too perfect though, I kept wondering if she had a wig on.

Has James always done that twitch during the chorus of NSAF? I've seen it player 5 times before Monday but never noticed.
He cocks his head during the 'it <twitch> was <twitch> no <twitch> surface but all feeling' bit...
