appleblim, necta selecta & ollie rhodes @ SUBHEAVY in Cornwall 22nd feb '08

i'd never had rollies blagged out of me from a headliner before then.
oh for fuck's sake, yes you can have a bloody rollie...hang on, you're appleblim aren't you? sorry, yeah help yourself!

was a brilliant night. i've not heard another <20k rig as good as the subheavy one yet.

it was shit, totally put me off going to dubstep nights for ages, i still think a whole night of just dubstep is boring now, if the artist is really really interesting it's bearable, I saw Bass Clef later that year and it blew my mind, restored a bit of faith.

do you even like christmas?

first proper dubstep event i was at was me, DJing quite a while back, headlining above Pinch and Appleblim.

so that must have been about 2004. i went back to playing breaks for a couple of years after that, and have been kicking myself ever since!
