Yet another amazing gig from James Dean Bradfield at ULU last night. Beautiful,

Boyf got chatting to David Quantick (only of course after I'd said don't talk to David Quantick!) . He bought us pints and we chatted about the Manics and their solo careers. The consensus was "thoroughly nice bloke" - even took the time to take the piss out of the cure t-shirt on one of our party...

Quote of the night:

"I'd turn up to see the Manic Street Preachers shit" David Quantick

Nicky Wire - pink suited, middle-aged parent teachers evening ranter, poet, shambollix
James Dean Bradfield - beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, when someone uses a guitar to take you to another place, it literally leaves me breathless...also having a parent that has recently died, Ocean Spray meant more to me than anything last night - thank you (I try hard to refrain from bursting into Thank you for the music by ABBA!)
Sean Moore - what's the next step? Industrial hardcore? Freeform jazz? Electro soundscape? Come Mooro pull it out the bag boy!
