OK, i'll go first Highlights DRY COUNTY - wish I had seen them ages ago JAPE - loved the album, now love the live shows DELORENTOS - getting better and better GIVEAMANAKICK - the best fun i had at a gig in ages CELEST - brilliant, absolutely brilliant HOUSE OF MEXICO - they had only one song but it was a great song! JENNY LINDFORS - would like to see her with a band THE HUB - great place to see bands Lowlights JOE CHESTER - love the album but he's s**te live THE RAGS - didnt hear any decent songs TURN - waste of time, space, etc THE CHAPTERS - very disappointing, especially because they were so good last year THE WALLS - jesus christ, who likes this lot? THE URGES - dont see what the fuss is about SPIRIT - awful venue

highlights for me were: Delorentos - never seen 'em before, well impressed. The Urges - band were as good as ever, crowd a bit s**t, found that about a lot of the gigs over the weekend, most of the crowds were super critical, Some band in the the mezz last night - blues, class. The Mighty Stef - far and away the best thing, i'm converted. Lowlights: Chuzzle - was looking forward to seeing them after hearing some good reviews, very disappointed, he's a great voice and probably a great album in him but didnt really dig it at all.

Betamax Format and Dark Room Notes were my top choices. Mighty Stef following closely - but not as good as the aforementioned. Finally got to see The Things - great stage presence, great performers. That singer has it for sure. Oh and Neosupervital is a goddam legend.

The only real highlight for me was Panda Kopanda who were the only really above average band over the weekend.
