HAAAAH! I know, it's terrible. I took my sister to some Skateboard/Music festival in the millennium dome, back in 2003 i think, and she wanted to see Kelly Osbourne. I don't think i have ever seen anyone get bottled so badly in my life, It was great!

Oh, i forgot Sahara Hotnights played that day too

 
Just been listening to some of my old albums today, and remembered that I saw Gillan a couple of times at Hammersmith - how could I have forgotten that?

Also saw Tank supporting Motörhead, but only have vague memories of them.

Anyone seen TV Smith recently? I'm just asking because he's playing live tonight at a local club and I was wondering whether I should go or not.

 
I did go see TV Smith and I'm glad I did. The tickets were 8€, so it's not like it was a huge financial risk. Someone had accidentally smashed his acoustic guitar after his latest gig(or something along those lines) so he played the gig with an electric guitar, but it was still good.
