Slow trains suck. Had to leave Krupps gig early because they only came on after 20 past 10, missed the slowish train by a tick as my connections were a lot quicker than I thought and had to take the last train that stops everywhere.
I'm now in this stupid state where I'm really tired but still psyched from the gig so probably won't be able to sleep.
Dragons were OK but a bit strange and all over the place and had a very enthusiastic drummer. Faderhead didn't do it for me as it's club music which doesn't come across well on an average live PA

It was a very late gig... I think Camden cab drivers did well last night! We did some hard haggling and got home just before 1am!

*yawn*

The gig finished around midnight in the end. So it was night buses or cabs home for everyone.

The Dragons drummer used to be in the House of Love and another late 80's/early 90's Indie band I can't remember atm.

They reminded me in parts of Joy Division (fairly obvious especially given they covered a Joy Divison during their set too) and also of a number of the more rocky 'goth' bands from the late 80's/early 90's like Claytown Troupe and Balaam & The Angel. I enjoyed them.

Sorry I didn't manage to chat more - we were en route to the front to see the band and then when I had a look for you later I couldn't find you. I do like Dingwalls as a venue though :)

Ouch. The planning wasn't great in that regard.

Yeah, I didn't quite know where to put them put Joy Division is a good approximation.

Not worries. I was in the back with friends during Faderhead and Krupps.

Yeah, the staggered area works well.

Train travel can be a right pain in the arse, no doubt about it.
