      • I would be going but student finance have of course fucked me right over so am penniless for another week or two sadly.

        maybe I'll find some money on the floor at Festival No.6, fingers crossed

  • how much are tickets?

    any left? I'm going to try and swap my work shift that evening.

    haven't listened to the new one much, but I love 'Fantastic Damage'.

    incandenza_ | 13 Sep '12, 02:31 | X
    • Still available

      about £15 once you've paid booking and postage. It's in Academy 3, which is one of my favourite Manchester venues.

      Si_Badvibes @incandenza_ | 13 Sep '12, 11:15 | X
  • i thought he'd be in a bigger room!

    saw James Bourne there last year OH GOD

    • I'm glad - hate Academy 2.

  • I'm going! Reports from the rest of the tour are pretty damn good so far

    chris_81 | 14 Sep '12, 21:08 | X
  • Is there a cloakroom at the venue?

    Got a long journey home so need to bring provisions

    chris_81 | 15 Sep '12, 08:30 | X
  • That was off the chart, fuck!

    If any bands I see in future don't include at least two keytar solos in their set I'm walking.

    • I had to leave at half 10 because of the stupid last train to Bolton being at 2249

      Did I miss much?

      Si_Badvibes @chris_81 | 18 Sep '12, 12:32 | X
      • He was done 10 minutes later, but it was all bangers

        chris_81 @Si_Badvibes | 18 Sep '12, 13:37 | X
  • You lucky twats-I hope he plays somewhere nearer to me than manchester soon.

        • Despot is well worth checking out too

  • I know it varies

    but what were the stage times roughly last night?

    Severed799 | 18 Sep '12, 15:51 | X
    • Despot 8:30; El-P 9:30; Curfew 11:00

      As was said above, worth getting there to see Despot. He put on a good show and was very funny and self-deprecating. He also came on wearing his Christmas jumper, and led everyone through his on tour aerobics routine.

      El-P was brilliant. Sounded loud and dirty, and his band and hype man were ace. He seemed genuinely pleased to be here when he bid farewell at the end.

  • Did anyone catch the name of his hype man?

    He was a big lad wasn't he?

    chris_81 | 18 Sep '12, 17:28 | X
    • Didn't catch it, sadly

      But he was HUGE! Proper stacked, George Elokobi style (http://bit.ly/NAChT9). Didn't really dawn on me until he was stood next to Despot, who looked tiny in comparison.

  • i concur with all the comments here

    it was fucking brilliant. few gigs leave me speechless, however that one truly did :D

    i met despot and he lied to my face and told me his album is coming out next year ;) and i got a signed el-p album.

    great night!

    robellovich | 18 Sep '12, 17:55 | X
  • True Story was my highlight

    the hype man spitting out the chorus sample sounded like a machine gun (or there was a machine gun sample too). Loads better than the album version

    Si_Badvibes | 18 Sep '12, 18:01 | X
  • DEEP SPACE 9MM

    that is all
