Well technically last night now you but know what I mean?!  Pixies rocked like a motherfucker but I almost died in the mosh pit. Was one of the worst I've ever been in - relentless! Bugg, you're going to see them too aren't you? Look after yourself if you're going up front! Anyway, they played loads of classic tunes - Debaser, Monkey Gone to Heaven, Hey, Here Comes Your Man, Velouria etc Was virtually impossible to take photos but I got a few at the end when the crowd had calmed down/run out of energy. No idea if they have come out any good yet but I'm not too hopeful!  Think I got a few of Joey Santiago when he was doing this amazing feedback thing with his guitar which went on for about 3 minutes! |

I sent practically everyone a message saying i was waiting for the goddamn Pixies (i was bored of waiting and very excited ;D)  AND YES IT WAS FUCKING AMAZING!!!!! Never sweated so much in my whole life, the show was surreal, all these wonderful brilliant songs i'd never thought i'd hear live! Ahhh, *grabs tissue* It was surreal! I danced so fucking much jesus! It was great as hell. |

I'm glad the Bugg didn't get squashed! I was a bit worried about you after my experience at Brixton. I was sweating like mad too! Where did you stand in the end, Hanna? I was front, center at the beginning but the moshing just got a bit too much after 10 songs or so. I could barely breathe (which is kind of important) so I had to pussy out and move back a few rows. It was much better though because I could actually see the band and I got have a jump/dance about properly without getting someones elbow/head/armpit in my face! It calmed down during the encore so I managed to go back up and stand by the front barrier and take a few pics. Most are still shite but I got about 5 that are ok. |

It was much better though because I could actually see the band and I got have a jump/dance about properly without getting someones elbow/head/armpit in my face! That's exactly what happened at the White Stripes, and i almost fucking died.  After four or five songs, i had reached the point where i had to literally fight back to breath, it was fucking awful. I spent at least two minutes trying to get the security guards' attention, and they spent a whole minute trying to get the miniscule bugg fucking out. And after i got to breath and have place to dance and jump too! But i was kinda stupid standing in the middle and second row, i just didn't know it was gonna be that bad i guess.  A first time for everything, heh. But yesterday was great, i was on the right, second row, so the crazy people were say, one or two meters left from me, but i was with normal people who could breath ;D I danced and jumped and cheered like hell, my legs and shoulders have cramps today  It was fantabulistic, because i was close, could breath, and near enthusiastic yet reasonnable people.  |
