| It is over. It struggled to hold my attention. Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.  _________________  |

It was all Manchester acts, so it must have been 10CC.  John Dowie who was on the bonus 7" _________________ I saw weird stuff in that place last night. Weird strange, sick, twisted, eerie, Godless, evil stuff…

| Anyway, it was gr8.
A proper time capsule.
Naive, raw, atmospheric in a 'you had to've been there' sort of way.
Steep Pulse were the most accomplished band in the lineup, but JCC was as charming and disarmingly b*llsy as ever.
An interesting document of early JD and Buzzcocks and Teh fall as well.

John Dowie who was on the bonus 7" Ohh, I completely forgot about that. Was it from the same gig though?

| Or was it a random 7" stuck in a limited number of different coloured vinyl editions of the original release?

| I think that Jon the Postman and The Drones are potential future commentaries.
