Gig review 01/08/2004




So Sunday was our show at the Barfly in Glasgow and I must admit to really enjoying this one. Despite doing virtually no promo work I was surprised to see quite a few familiar faces in the crowd. There were 5 bands playing, the other 4 being more traditional standard Industrial acts featuring guitars. As a result we played a shorter than normal set but by the end we had won people over with our techno inspired beats.

I actually missed my cue for the start of 'Scandinavia' but it wasn't long till we were in our stride with 'City lies' and by the time we played 'Space Zulu' I produced an inflatable beach ball (bought earlier). Andy and myself had turns throwing it into the crowd and our crew at one side of the room started getting boisterous...just the way we like it. It was fun throwing some poses because everytime was like having a strobe effect as the camera flashes went off. The feedback was ace and the CDs we brought along vanished which was really nice. I'm glad now that we did this show :)

Set List

Scandinavia
City Lies
Paulypeptide
Super State Empire
Walk through the night
Space Zulu
Tryptych

I love the visuals, ummm yes i do. Wish I could have been there but just wasnt possible.Someday maybe you will play in the states and give us the honor of your talents? You always take me to that "special place" with your music.Takes my mind away from the bad things in life. Keep the visuals coming, I like.

I declare I must go see a show of yours even if it does involves Lissa making silly faces and doing odd things to see if you will fall off stage and still keep your note or even to see if you'll see a Wizard of OZ song ;)

Haha ... I keed, ya know I love ya maaan! Honest ;)

Yas, come and see us, hopefully you will like the show and make lots of fun faces but be warned...I sometimes single out peeps from the audience and you would be my victim *evil grin* ;)

Sounding good... :D

I like Space Zulu, Trytych, Super State Empire, City Lies, A.D.D, One Night Stand, and Intoxicated Land. :D Hehe.. most of them then lol.

I would love to be in an electronic band, I've always wanted to create music that sounded like a dream and an echo of everyday life with me singing the lyrics lol. Probably sounds corny or whatever, but you know what I mean.
