strummer that’s really fucking cool.
Favourite gigs
strummer Not a fan of The Clash, but cap doffed nonetheless.
Another forgotten one:
Manic Street Preachers, Town & Country Club, 1992
Jon Hopkins followed by Mute Math (different stages) at NH7 In Bangalore was a brilliant ‘live gig’ experience. Hopkins almost had me in tears.
altJ put up a great show over here too. It rained and I fucking hate the rain, but it was perfect.
Will get slated, but I thought Fatboy Slim was a brilliant overall experience. Massive stage with pyro, was tripping balls and the visuals were insane. Was it a seamless set with flawless mixing and intelligent programming, fuck no, but it was great party music.
Simian Mobile Disco tore it up with the most nutty acid at NH7 in Pune. Kohra and BLOT warmed up for them. That was good fun too. The guys from Simian drove past us on our way back to the hotel.
I’ve seen the vaccines in this intimate hipster bar, tight band but the sound was shit.
The Human League - Besttival
Along_the_Wire Not a fan of The Clash
Won`t be listening to your mixes again.
strummer LOL, I’m not slagging them off and I’m giving you due kudos!
And I can’t afford to lose listeners
Gutting no gigs this summer - had tickets lined up for New Order, Groove Armada, Beck and Despacio
The last gig I went to was The Cinematic Orchestra.
Which was nice.
