Great night!!!!
Set-list was pretty obvious but who cares. Sounded amazing (though I don't really like how Romeo Down sounds on this tour) & as mentioned previously the boys really really seemed on top form.
The slam-pit was particularly 'slammy' last night but I can't complain as I was in it for 90% of the gig. Those big bearded tatooed guys bust my lip though & I've got some lovely colourful bruises.
Nice to see everyone (etc etc) & new people I'd never met before.
(& nice to see someone again that I met at Joseph's Well last year. I remember that your mum worked with/for Adam Pearson. If your reading this pleeeeeeeeeez register & PM me
)
@ Planet Dave, dude, your a legend. You seemed aboard a spaceship searching a new planet to inhabit during most of the gig mate. In between trying to hold you up at various points you told me you had no control over any part of your body!
Nothing can quite match the experience, I just hope it happens again.

Nice one Mark / Norm / Grant , at last indeed. Fcukin pleasure mate. Thanks. 
To everyone I met last night (there were a hell of a lot of you), cheers for another storming night in the banana republic. I love you all. Still
Weebleswobble - , welcome to the madhouse You fit right in. 
The James - sorry Rich but the image of you holding a kid in one hand, a nappy in the other, and a puzzled expression, is glorious and I can't shift it. Good to see you three.
MacHeartlanders - a bunch of us need to head up to the frozen wastes next time you have a do. Great to see you all in fine fettle, a return visit is the least we can do.
Can anyone remember a single thing about the gig? Other than it didn't hold my attention very long. Nice pit though, as ever.
Keep yer recollections rolling in folks, then I can piece it all together.
to you all.
Garage party went on til 4.30ish, by which time sight had long since become a thing of the past, and Ania was snoozing like a baby
As they all melted away this morning, Lee had half an exhaust and Steve & Pindy were driving a car featuring 'a most interesting perfume'. Don't look at me, I just invite them all. Then it all goes terribly wrong, yet so so right.
Enjoy the rest of the gigs everyone who's off. Wish I could make Glasgow, but no chance unfortunately.

Had a great time. Great to see Mr Blast again, even though he shouted at me for not posting as much anymore!!
to Boudicca for telling me I'd out pony tailed her!
A huge to Mrs Fiend, who truly rocks xx
Oh and Mr Dave, when you go to kiss me full on the lips again, please refrain from licking your lips first!!
.
to Francis too for managing to loose his glasses. It shouldn't be funny, but it really was. When you said, "Hold me up Di I can't see a thing", I laughed because I though you meant you were trousered! Soz and all that 
.
Great night. Even though I was on the coke (drink-before someone utterly hilarious uses a drug reference) all night. I'm getting used to being sober and I'm totally ok with it now. THAT SCARES ME!

Hey Di, I'm only human.
(on the cheek)So what's the general opinion of the gig itself? Am I alone in thinking it was lacklustre, and indicative of a band in its last throws? I hope I'm wrong.

I'm in too much of an emotional state to make a coherent post just now, so I'll just say that was my most very favourite day EVER!
You people are the best in the world, I thank you X 100,000,000

I thought the gig itself was great Dave.

I'm sure it was, but then it was at JW last year, and that was still an awesome gig. Last night just felt flat, very 'going through the motions', and a bit tired and dreary to me.Mrs RicheyJames wrote:I thought the gig itself was great Dave.

I'll still be there next time, but you lot are a far greater pull than the gigs themselves these days.

Aye, great gig and thanks for telling me it was Romeo Down after Anaconda. That has been bugging me all night. Glad to see the back of my head in nearly all the photos as well

Just got back to sunny Brighton.
Gig was fantastic (much better sound than the London gig).
Great to meet everyone again, but special mentions to Planet Dave (great hospitality, great garage, great smoke machine ), Claire (awful singing and guitar playing at 3am, followed by her first ever hangover ), Lee ('No Sleep Till Rutland' ), James 'George Michael' Blast, Scotty (who's never seen Ghostdance play live), Mrs Scotty & Derek R (good to see all you McHeartlanders again!), Barry & Jo (as always), Ania (still completely on a different planet), Zuma & Kat (hello again!), Dan, WeeblesWobble, metalorange, Steve & Pindy (good to meet you lot for the first time) and everyone else who I spoke to or waved at at some point on Wednesday.

People, it was fantastic!
The fact that The Sisters were playing later that night was just the icing.
We were in the Drydock where service was friendly and prices were keen, nice pub with a retractable roof so we could enjoy the suns rays. We could have sat outside but Hey! Goths don't do that.
At this point there were just:
Zuma
Cat
scotty
Missus scotty
Pat
boudicca
Delilah
and yours truly.
It was the start of one huge party!
Slowly they dribbled in, in ones, twos and threes, to swell the ranks of the lost, the lonesome, the lunatic - in no particular order:
Jansenclone
DerekR
Lazarus Corporation
The Boss
Mrs. The Boss
The Fiends
The James' all three of them
Andrew S
Eva + friend who's name I forget
weebleswobble
metalorange
about this time the represenatatives from Planet Dave landed and things went up a notch!
Hom_Corleone
Sunsonic
eastmidswizzkid
Then the tail end Charlies completed the scene
The Grippers
Cell Three
Culprit
Electrochrome
Dan
and making a dramatic, yet fashonably late entrance, the one and only Francis.
Top Day Out!
oh the band were pretty damn kickin' aswell
did I mention that they played Never Land (less of a fragment) and that I love the new guitar parts on Dr. Jeep?
I'm sure I've missed out a swathe of top people whom I didn't get to meet or who's names escape me, please forgive

Indeed, top nite out all round and so good to catch up with everyone
The gig was one of the best I've managed to see so far
and Cat loved it (first show for her).
As mentioned above, even if it were not the best ever gig
the people make it really into an evening to remember.
Spare a thought for Keith and Mags who may be about home by now

OK it's hands up time...
Mr Blast I must apologize for finding myself seperated from your Irvine Welsh book which you so kindly thought to bring along for me. I think I left it on a shelf under the table in that wee pub we found ourselves in. A replacement is on it's way from Amazon. I'll get it to ye as soon as I've read it
