Dang. Been thinking about it but have managed to arrange myself into a night out with the lads instead. Hmmm. Maybe i could coax them with the prospect of a sonic mauling?

It was my mate's 21st on monday, he's a huge fan. I saw him about 2am on sunday night/monday morning; covered in sweat, big goofy grin on his face, with a broken drum stick in a blood covered hand, all he could manage to say was "I just drummed with the bolt".

Yea I was quite a bit suspect about how that would go down with Whelans - i mean can you really imagine that place being happy with the f**kin chaos they incite!
Esp with there being no stage and no chance of the bouncers being able to do f**k all about anything. I dont think Lightning Bolt will play if Whelans insist on a stage set up - or if they do it'll all change very quickly mid set.

i think its all but sold out at this stage - a mate of mine who's involved in bring them over in some shape or form told me there were only 16 tickets left - and that was at 7pm last night - altho i *may* have a spare one if you're interested!

They seem really into doing their own thing their own way, I wouldn't be surprised if they refuse to play if they have to go on the stage. Or like you said they could pull a fast one.

They might just do an impromtu set somewhere on Camden Street!!!
A mate of mine was at ATP the year they played and they just
set up outside some f**king chalet at 4am and started lashing out the tunes!
That would be a kodak moment if ever there was one.
I predict some riots on Camden Street tonight!
