Heartland

Now I know we're all rufty tufty Sisters fans, but what was the last gig you went to.........honestly

Mine was Laibach at the Electric Ballroom, first one I'd been to for years. I'd been wanting to see them for years but for one reason or the other I'd never made it so I got this in just before Christmas. After the decades of build up it was, well, OK. I never thought it would be quite so camp though!

big gig, or crappy local band pub gig?

Napalm Death at the Alrosa Villa in Columbus, Ohio, where I bought a very nifty "Nazi Punks f**k Off" T-shirt

One of each, if you wish.

i cant remember the last "big" gig i went to - probably the chameleons or something

there are very few bands around at the moment that i could be bothered forking out 20 quid for a ticket and going to see

the last "local" gig i went to was probably either the mighty "rhombus" or "uncle fester", both at the bassment...

both were ace

hailing from blackpool & featuring ex-alien sex fiend member "ratfink" on drums, they play a very traditional and very honest pub/punk rock and are actually a lot cooler than you'd think

Big gig: probably Basement Jaxx last year, most notable because Felix fell off the stage and cracked his head open during Where's Your Head At

Small Gig: My friend's electro gig. More of an excuse to get really pissed than anything else.

PWEI t'other week.

Well, big gig would have to be Status Quo. But we were sat so far away it was quite pointless.
Small gig would be The Damned about a month or two ago at the Drill Hall.

I hear tell the Buzzcocks are coming too, so try not to miss that one too, eh, Debaser?

forgot big gig.. The Darkness, naturally. last two, in fact.

Am sure I'll try and get to the Drill Hall though.
