aphex was a bit of a letdown. his part of the gig was just a mere DJ set....its pretty gay when you think that he's actually playing other people's music and not his own. and some of the crowd were utter morons. dancing to every single song, no matter how shit, like , "I'M DANCING COS I KNOW THEY'RE ALL GOOD COS OTHER PEOPLE TOLD ME THEY'RE GOOD." i was rather hoping that aphex would play his own stuff to be honest.
the bug (feat Warrior Queen and Ras B) on the other hand were very good. those guys put on a very good show. wolf eyes were pretty mental i.e. noisy but i appreciated some parts. plus DJ ned filled in the bits where the next band were setting up - that was pretty cool.
in summary it just went from good to bad to worse. the venue (the barrowlands) had a reputation for being a nice venue, and having a good atmosphere. i found that to be true at first - everyone was pretty chilled out, just sat on the floor or at the bar, not really "queueing" at the front of the stage. even when wolf eyes were playing, there was room to move out and come back in. then when bug came on, everyone gradually got fired up, and thats when the crowd got a bit shit.
but i had a fun time. met loads of new people, watched a bit of nathan barley (etc?)

wolf eyes were pretty mental i.e. noisy but i appreciated some parts. I found a wolf eyes album on my computer recently, totaly dont remember downloading it, and certainly never listened to it. Anyway I gave a couple of bits a very brief listening, wish I hadnt. Thats my story, it is now over.

hahaha to be honest i dont blame you. its pretty rancid to be honest. what i appreciate about them though is that they manage to control all this noise. it could quite easily feedback and go off on a tangent
