Second show at ATP- triumphant STUFF, baby

We played our second show at ATP on the Sunday at 6:45 pm.
This time it was in the middle sized room and we played a rock'n'roll set with Malcolm Ross on guitar alongside Clare, Stu Thomas and me.

The set went like this....

We need a champion
night of the wolverine
everything was legendary with Robert
death by a thousand sucks
Frankie's negative
Chad's car
I got myself a beautiful nightmare
everybody does what they want to
my schtick weighs a ton
I'm a good hater
this is the deadest place I've ever died in
rock'n'roll is where I hide



 A review of the festival.

There were people who knew different songs from different periods.
A woman came up who'd seen the Moodists play at Harlow College with the Go Betweens in 1984. A couple of people had been at the Hacienda in the same year and other people at Oxford and another couple at a club in West London.

When I'd spoken with Marc Riley I'd talked about the Moodists and he remembered the name - it was the only reference point people have for us - I'd casually said we'd had a breakthrough album with Wolverine in 1993. I forgot to say we got to a new audience who didn't know or need to know anything about the Moodists. It was weird. In that 90s period all our peers, like the former members  Go Betweens and David McComb, couldn't get out of the 80s. They were stuck there. Eventually they reconstituted and retooled themselves. We were scot free.

Hilarious podcast where two ATP festival pundits encounter and describe our THING.

  1. MRS. IRENE QUERY FINANCE IS THE BEST PLACE TO GET A LOAN {mrsirenequery@gmail.com}

    God bless you Mum, I will not stop telling the world about your kindness in my life, I am a single mum with kids to look after. My name is Mrs.Rachel Alex, and I am from Singapore . A couple of weeks ago My friend visited me and along our discussion she told me about MRS.IRENE QUERY FINANCE, that they can help me out of my financial situation, I never believed cause I have spend so much money on different loan lenders who did nothing other than running away with my money. I have been in a financial mess for the pass 7 months now,She advised I give it a try so I mailed her and explain all about my financial situation to her, she therefore took me through the loan process and gave me a loan of $180,000.00 at a very low interest rate of 3% and today I am a proud business owner and can now take good care of my kids, If you must contact any firm to get any amount of loan you need with a low interest rate of 3% and better repayment schedule, please contact MRS.IRENE QUERY FINANCE via email{mrsirenequery@gmail.com}
