[big screen satellite]

YAY - I'M IN! :D

[razorpilot]

I haven't heard anything...

I have been trying a couple of people I know at the BBC to try for me, response back to them from the session organsier was:
I'm really sorry but we don't have any more tickets available for this event. It's in one of the small studios so we haven't been able to accommodate many people and the guest list has already been compiled."

:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(
I think I may cry...

[vacant]

an excellent show tonight. no Nuxx, but it wasn't missed. I won't spoil the setlist for anyone waiting for Friday.
Around 30 people in the audience, a bit of free drink, and managed to have a brief chat with Karl, Rick and Darren afterwards and got them to sign my Barking boxset. Brilliant night, top work guys- and cheers! :)

Also shout out to Big Screen Satellite who I said hello to afterwards.

Now to decide if I risk taking tomorrow off work and getting a ticket from a tout...

[Dirty0900]

Can you pm me a setlist? Out the country from Friday and will miss it!

[razorpilot]

Vacant - Ditto please for the setlist.. I'm off to Heathrow in a couple of hours
Still gutted about missing last night AND tonight.

[yobbit]

Sorry Big Screen and Vacant - my social skills didnt extend beyond chatting to Karl at the end. Great night - like being in their bedroom - nice to not hear KOS :) The prize nearly up for the fact that my CD still hasnt arrived - Royal wanking Mail probably have it on repeat at their Southwark depo.

[big screen satellite]

awesome - like a private gig

spoke to all the guys - got behind rick's desk to chat to him (album got signed too)

seems a really great bloke - talked briefly about his vocoder skills - an 'oldie but a goldie' he said, i said he sounded great with his welsh singing voice

nice to bump into Vacant, also Danielle, Mike & Steve...

but a big thanks to the guys really - was a pleasure being that close

[testudo]

is there a reason why there are no details for this?

[big screen satellite]

well, vacant said he was waiting until tomorrow - as its being broadcast 'as live' on Radio 1

i can list a tracklist.... but might as well let everyone enjoy it as it goes ount tomorrow night eh?

i think we should make a seperate spoiler thread.. c'mon we're fans!

[big screen satellite]

so those of you impatient - or who will miss the show on friday

this is the format

its a 45 minute 'session' type set during Pete Tong's show, which he was also recording 'as live' last night

the guys, were in Studio 4 of Maida Vale in North London, the studio is pretty small, i'll up a pic of their set up, not many pics as bbc were strict... :(

the 30 or so lucky people there were on a balcony above the guys and had perfect view of everything.

karl was giging and dancing throughout, while Rick and Darren did all the prep work... with Rick using a Keyboard to do the vovoder effects, which surprisingly were on most tracks...

aside from the vocal fuckup on Always Loved a Film it was a perfect set of Barking based tunes...

it was like watching UW in your lounge with some mates...

Downpipe
Always Loved A Film
Scribble
Bird 1
Between Stars
Diamond Jigsaw

encore (off air):

Rez/Cowgirl

I added a spoiler tag to the forum.
