I'll be very happy to not miss it.
Hi, this is today and it's only george and me trolling in this thread.
Oh man, one amazing liveset after another. And most of you missed it! Ha ha!
Highlights of the trip:
* Buying the shittiest burger at a Motorway Service Station for £4.99 - it was worse than a van burger :(
* Hanging out on my own in Camden Market
* Buying a CD I wanted for £2 (brand new + sealed!)
* Within five minutes of meeting Stevens, having a woman shout abuse at no-one in particular in the middle of the street and had a gang of lads throw a ball of Garlic(?) at us
* Not being able to find the train station
* Finding the train station
* Going into a 98p shop, purchasing an item (Bicycle puncture kit), have it be priced £1 - I felt ripped off
* Buying an Ice Cream at Sainsbury's (I wanted a Feast, but it was battered, so opted for the Strawberry Cornetto - classic)
* Stevens promising that Stoke Newington was full of hipster types, only to spot approximately no hipster types.
* Walking past the bar
* Going into the bar
* Matt Nida starting pretty much as soon as we arrived
* Drinking way too many beers
* Everyone killing it live
* Me finding out my Casio watch was fake :(
* Me finding out my fake Casio watch changes colour - miles better than the original version! :)
* Hanging outside afterwards
* Shirobon joining us after the show had ended OUT OF NOWHERE
* Everyone laughing at my shitty ghetto non-business cards (although someone did add me on facebook afterwards, so they worked!)
* The train/night bus being surprisingly quick + effective + empty
* Sleeping surrounded by a few dozen Casio + various other keyboards
* Stevens having a cupboard full of Mini-Weetabix (the chocolate ones)
* Spotting one of the dudes from the show the next day - in the middle of Bromley, no less.
* On the coach back home, sitting in front of a guy playing shitty music on his phone
* No-one deciding to do anything because his phone call conversations were about acquaintances going to prison
* Cute girls getting on the coach at the last stop, ended up inadvertently surrounded by them - notbad.
* Didn't do anything about it
* Got home safe and sound
A++, would attend again - plz moar shows, Akira + crew.
Dude that's amazing, specially the garlic ball bit xD
By the way, this show was Matt Nida + crew. I just helped
