    reviews/comments

    from marko:

    a terrible venue, lousy pa. a lot of things happened here. martin injured his thumb, taped it and played on. john's guitar quit halfway through 'fear satan'. and the band seemed less confident. (then there was the lousy pa, the humidity in the venue, the total absence of ear-plugs, and the early closing time. (23:30)) the crowd, though, was easy (and i do mean easy) to please. the very first time a distortion pedal was used a mosh-pit had formed. (resulting in the loss of a poor soul's wallet.)


    mogwai's tour diary

    rotterdam ' basement'
    we encountered a quasi-satanic britpop camden nightmare after a satisfactory show. we received jellied eels from a pear;ly queen. mogwai refused to entertain 300,000 humbaws until all pictures of the british royal family were removed from the walls and burned along with the stinking rotting ugly corpse of princess diana "queen of hearts".

    we rested in peace on our beautiful coach of dreams as america eats it's young and ibrox burns full of huns.
