The Crypt

2003-03-15

Every so often I get a completely lovely one, and this was one of those. No PA (I wonder if that had anything to do with it) and I did two sets sandwiched between three sets by Breathing Space (sans Laura, who's ill in bed - aah!).

Chris Schüler and Rich Barnard came to see me, which was nice and the rest of the room was filled with Breathing Space-heads and... they were lovely. They were quiet, attentive (which isn't the same thing exactly) and warm. There were occasional disrupted spots (I think Russell trying to turn off the lights was one), but on the whole it was a wonderful sea of attention to swim in.

For my first set, I did The Things You Get, Mr Wrong and Unison, then for the second set I started by taking photos of the audience (to follow when I find the camera to computer cable) and then did Little Games, the newish rather agonised one, 100 Horses and finished with Iodine.

Really lovely - and I very much enjoyed Breathing Space's set too, although I read P Moon on their set list (pinned to the wall) as Pink Moon rather than Paper Moon which is, in fact what it is. Perhaps they should consider that as an option.
