Lol i doubt i'd be jammy enough to get a tcicket again if they ever play......i was very fortunate

They were awesome too, i was thinking it would just be good in a nostalgic way, but fuck me they were awesome, really really good.

Looking back on it, i reckon i'd have gone to about Ł2k for a ticket before I even started to worry about the price
