Hey mate I was at that gig ! Funny that Suede went on to be far bigger than Kingmaker ever was. They was crap I agree.
Small world ;)
Did you see Kingmaker the previous visit in the upstairs bar? I think it was £1 entry, the support band failed to turn up so some local group was dragged in and played something abnout a chip shop and flying bodies brought half the ceiling tiles down.

Happy days.

Just got Hunted by a Freak by Mogwai on Acronym's suggestion.

He's waxed lyrical about them a lot and I haven't ever heard one of there songs.

Quite like this though, sounds like Pavement with vocals by a robot :)

EDIT

Haha I mispelt it Mogwair to start with, freudian tit as it does sound a bit like those frogrockers as well. No bad thing :)

It's uncharacteristically gentle. If you want fullon headcrushing 'Gwai, get Like Herod, Mogwai Fear Satan, Christmas Steps, or (especially) My Father My King :)

Oh, and Desert Island Discs? Difficult...

"On My Own", Ulrich Schnauss
"Map Ref 41?N 93?W", Wire
"Everything In Its Right Place", Radiohead
"Everything Goes Around The Water", The Delgados
"My Father, My King", Mogwai
"Alberto Balsalm", Aphex Twin
"The Point Of It All", Fennesz
"Debaser", Pixies

At least for today. :)

Baby just cares for me - Nina Simone
Love will tear us apart - Joy Division
No surprises - Radiohead
I am the resurrection - Stone Roses
Nantucket sleighride - Mountain

If you could cheat a bit and have concept/live albums as single tracks, you could bump them for Dark Side of the Moon, The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, Space Ritual, Queen II, Brain Salad Surgery.

That would be good value :)
