I liked them for their balloons and big signs. Not so much the music though.

I can't seem to remember most of them. Which means i must have been at the bar. Ian Brown was shocking!

Can't believe nobody's mentioned the disasterous choice of Embrace as a warm-up (Nynex if I remember correctly?)

From the gigs I've attended (I'm not counting festivals here):

Catatonia (I couldn't stand Cerys' voice).
Ian Brown (having to see him twice was bad enough, but having to see his soundcheck too was too much to bear).
Whoever the support was at Cambridge & Hammersmith on the PPF tour.
The Enemy (didn't think much of them).
Whoever was the support at the Roundhouse last year.

T'Answerign Machine, I actually really liked them, I bought their album and everything. Cliffer is a classic song. However as a choice for a MANICS gig, I agree they were bad
