I'm well aware it makes me a sourpuss, but it really torques me off when ppl sing along that loud at shows. I didn't come to hear them. it ruins the experience, at least for me.
@dullgreyrobot at Mountain Goats shows there are some songs that absolutely everybody sings along too though. When it's communal like that, and about everybody connecting with/through the music it totally makes the experience!
I was there! When he looks down for the first time as he walks away from the mike he was looking at me, I felt like a schoolgirl at a boyzone concert.
If the nice people who took a photo of my mate Ciaran (the boxer) and I with John sees this, can you message me as I must have written down your email address incorrectly. thanks!
Splendid...glad you all like it. It was a top gig...although for best gig moment ever it has a lot of copetition. Janes Addiction at Nottingham in the early 90's was stand out, Sperklehorse, a few others besides ...but it's close.
I'm ever so slightly miffed that I didn't get to meet him...especially if he is as brilliant a guy as he appears.
Still I did get to walk passed Peter Highes with 2 glasses of beer in my hand.

So glad you loaded that. Might have been my favourite gig moment ever. Met John afterwards, brilliant guy.

Great gig, tried to get a vid, but gave up after about 3 seconds because I just want to enjoy it!
