Hmm. Just listened to a few snippets from this year's bootlegs and I have to admit that things do sound better. However, are two festivals enough to go on? I'll have to think about it.

I didn't forget that, it's just not enough of a reason. I'll regret it a lot more if they're as bad as usual.

I should have previewed my post, shouldn't I? That's what I get for trying to be clever.

Maybe if they were coming a lot closer to me and charging a lot less but I'm not travelling three hours to Leeds, paying £20 for a train ticket, £30 for an overnight stay and £25 for a concert ticket in order to hear the bass and the drums and spend the entire time trying to work out which songs Von may or may not be singing. I think I only went back last time because I never saw them back in the day and that was only my second time but the honeymoon's well and truly over and I'm opting out until they can get their act together and actually put on a half decent show. I'm not asking for much, just that we can hear the music. Isn't that the whole point of a concert?


OOOOh, you've come over all Blast.

Yeah, I know. I've been waiting for him to claim a victory but he's either been remarkably restrained or completely disinterested.

Doc Sommer's Mera Luna 2010 is my favourite Sisters bootleg. They were kicking ass.

Have been told, that "you will be pleasantly surprised" Whatever that might mean? N.B. only edited beause too many question marks make a confused face!
