Reading warmup, got very drunk on vodka red bulls, fell in a bush,and you can see me on the South Bank Show Special that was filmed there. Off to Reading the next day.
Definitely one of my favourite ever gigs.
I heard about tickets somehow and Clare (who was a student at the time and lived in New Cross went and got the tickets. Was a lot easier than a warm-up gig like this might have been these days!
I was working at nme.com at the time and was heading off to Reading the next day. Not sure if I lost my laptop or phone at the gig or if I lost them at the festival over the next few days. One or the other thoug, was a chaotic time.
We had a few drinks before the gig...
I attended this one, see more in Paul's gig history for 1999. Part of the list of all the gigs I went to from 1987 to '19. A natural step from my Best gigs of all time weblog post. Yeah I know it's very nerdy, let's let that go though, I'm having fun reminiscing about these things.
