Downside:

No Jamie Vex'd. (been explained, forgiven)
People who should've fixed the turntables position during Kode9's set.
Timetables

Upsides:
Everything else.
And swimming.
And Mad Professor.
And visiting the church with Jeremy at sundaynight.

agreed being a connoisseur of battered food, that fish supper wis fuckin dire. probably tasted better on way back up.

It was deceptive as well. From the counter, it looks fairly decent sized.

You buyit, crack the batter (more like a hard shell) open and there's this tiny strip of grey slug that's meant to be "fish" inside. How the fuck they cook that shit i dunno. Inject the batter with helium then fry the shit out of it?

Anyway, Scientist was another highlight... he really cranked the soundsystem properly.

fsol was an (expensive?) waste of time. pretty creepy too having him leering at the crowd on the grainy vid.

esp in dance music this kind of retro worship is nonsense if you are trying to headline a massive rave. you should have to prove that you have at least been to a club in recent times before they let you play at such events lol...

was nice to hear papua new guinea again but would have been easier to play the record innit.

I was disappointed too. Never seen him play before. Just seemed all a little flat and underwhelming.

The first is a Bloc special with recordings of Otto Von Schirach & Richard Devine among other music and views, reviews and insider information.
