The whole room's legs buckled during the loud bit on Like Herod, which was astonishing at the time (given that everyone had only heard Ten Rapid at that point). Ah, rose-tinted nostalgia, excuse me.


Yeah, I first saw them in Feb '98 in a similarly small venue in Derby, but from memory the Nottingham gig in '99 just after the untitled EP was the loudest.
Oh, and Young Team was '97 - the anniversary package was delayed for some reason...
