Canvey sounds like, uh, good then?

1. Tan Hill
2. Leeds Festival 2005
3. Grasmere
4. Dublin '08
5. Electrowerkz

To be honest, those choices are hardly about music and more about who I was getting pissed with/trying to get off with/how much time off school I was skiving.

Worst:

SeOne. I really never wanted to see them again after that.

And I asked, "Are you dreaming about a crow?"

Can't choose 5, can I be allowed 10?

In chronological order:

Garage, London, 2003
Le Pub, Newport, 2003
Roter Salon, Berlin, 2003
Roxy, Prague, 2004
Cargo, London, 2004
High Rocks, Tunbridge Wells, 2005
Cypress Avenue, Cork, 2005
Rock City, Nottingham, 2006
Scala, London, 2007
Monico, Canvey Island / Digital, Brighton 2008

Feel I should also mention 93 Feet East, 2002, On the Rocks, 2003, Lincoln Uni 2005, Glasgow QMU, 2005...

Best tours: Autumn 2005, with the 'B-sides' set. Magical! Hope they do it again sometime. And autumn 2007 - their most consistent I think - the last three nights in particular, Newcastle/Tan Hill/Scala, all superb.

Worst? Brighton Racecourse
Kevo or Matthew Wood? Malevolence or good?

I really hoped they would play that place again this time, as I reckon the current batch of songs being played would be brilliant there.
