[stepintothebreeze]

[Neawu17]

Oh my ... I was 6 months old .



[sakayaisme]

God, this is like...heaven

[MrTimkek]

I wasn't even born before this happened. Cruel god.

[SiNcRiAnZa]

she's so beautiful, and her voice is really sweet

[acidreign6]

1991 wow oh my goodness, i was just born 2 months before this in may 24th , this is amazing.

[MiloDC]

This song has one of the most epic endings I have ever heard. The last couple of minutes are insane, up there with Bark Psychosis' "The Black Meat" and "Miss Abuse." It's dreadful that they cut it short live.

[1972polarbear]

I was at this gig, Ride played as well. Brilliant day out...

[Roniel81]

Slowdive absolutely rules

[kipperwacker]

don't care what the sound quality is like, i could watch her all day...

[Skazzuk]

Rachel = yum!

[kurtster94]

OoOo I've never gotten the pleasure of hearing it live. Yay

[Psqwall]

Sueadeheadness

[Lipry90]

[GenericInsect1979]

Damn that's a nice guitar Rachel has.

bravisimo

[seatyne]

...another slough festival refugee, this was my first proper indie gig, remember beer being something like £2 a can, which was f*cking outrageous at the time..ah happy memories.

[JagerMarty]

Fuck i wish these guys made it to AUS back then

[fashionfixes]

i just remember the strobes for ride

and some bird saying she needed a place to stay after coming down from Spike island..i didnt offer

[mutley1001]

It was make or break for Curve on that day. They absolutely ripped the place up. The only other two I remember were Slowdive and Ride. I actually went there to see Ride...

[euroanonymous]

yes, I was there that day I remember slowdive, although to be fair this is pretty awful. By fair the best band were Ride, who actually finished with the title track Nowhere.

[sd39hogger]

Is shoegaze even going anymore, as far as new music? I always loved this stuff!!! I want to start a Cure influenced shoegaze band, as a matter a fact....good luck finding any willing musicians

[avision747]

im down

[spillandambience]

so did i!!!! im still living in the past, 34 with child and i still want a shoegaze cure-esque band...i have a beautiful fender jaguar also dying for the opportunity lol! not much chance of that in cork tho :(

[lfbennett21]

check out 'sway' - 'the milia pink and green ep', and also 'snow in mexico', as well as 'valet' - 'blood is clean'. relatively recent shoegazey stuff that u might enjoy if u haven't already heard it

[EZBruv]

I'd be down haha, nobody around here even knows what shoegaze/dreampop is. : /

[uncleparsnip]

july 27th i think. it was a good day

[fassndink]

Don't remember Chapterhouse or Glitter. I thought it was a 1 day event. Ride did an extended version of Leave Them All Behind. Glorious day.

[tristian2]

the mock turtles also played. the previous night Gary Glitter headlined!!! i was a young lad then

[mattyj1972]

think 1000 yard stare were there too. Maybe swervedriver and chapterhouse also tho not sure. Long time ago, great day out tho

[innerstrings]

Wicked...I was there,down the front.This was a great day out,beautiful weather,good music and affordable beer (remember?) I remember Curve and Ride being on the bill,can anyone jog my memory regarding the whole line-up?

[mattyj1972]

Im sure 1000 yard stare were there too. Maybe Chapterhouse also tho not sure...long time ago. Great gig tho

[innerstrings]

I think Ratcat and Soul Family Sensation were on the bill too,though I can only remember Slowdive and Ride's performance

[troffasky]

My somewhat tatty and faded Slough Music Festival 1991 T-shirt also mentions The Mock Turtles and Revolver.

[sicknote74]

If only the kids today! I can remember going in successive years and can remember The Fall,Curve,S.F.S,Utah Saints with Wayne Hussey,Ride and for some reason standing next to Carter USM?.a brilliant event that I sadly miss! Slowdive pure genius under the cooling towers at Sutton Courtenay!

[loafoid]

wow, just wow!

[FuckingStanz]

nice tom tom sound

[secretshine]

Yeah I used to love watching Simon hit the toms. He was the most entertaining part of the band. Such an awesome drummer.

[bohsblur]

slowdive were great..
