After hearing about how bad this was, I thought I'd check it out on You Tube, and all I can say is OH! MY! GOD!

Not absolutely dreadful at first, but wait for the chorus

Yeah, It was bad. I was at Reading, that year. He didn't get any better as the gig went on.

Not for me. 

I saw them at Spike Island, and though everyone remembers it as a seminal event, I remember the smallest beer tent in history, disgusting food, poor support acts and a rubbish sound, which made it near impossible to hear the band. 

The only people who had a good time were all off their faces, and would have enjoyed themselves just as much dancing to a car alarm.

Best part of the day, the journey home and the free food at a service station cafe

Good band on vinyl, hopeless live

Well you say that, but I went to see the "Made Of Stone" film last week, and they actually sounded really good live!

Film is pretty good too.  I went on the premier night, so there were interviews with Shane Meadows et al.  Very interesting to hear them talking about it.  Only problem was Edith Bowman really.
