  • This is a really hard question, so many gigs to choose from. I’d probably choose a VNV Nation gig I went to in Slimelight, London. They were famous (in the goth scene, at least) at that point but did an intentionally small gig for the old fans.

    A close #2 would be The Dead Milkmen at a gig in Marburg back in the 90s. Was the first time I heard the grunge sound, and I thought it was excellent.

    So much good music, so little time…















  • The last time you posted this, I commented about all the reddit users that disappeared the day after the vote. I hate repeating myself, so here is a different anecdote.

    During the campaign, many people - including yours truly - pointed out that if the admitedly mediocre change was rejected, the powers that be would argue that ‘the people’ had voted against change - any change. And that is exactly what happened https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-13297573.

    …the referendum had delivered a “resounding answer that settles the question” over electoral change and people now wanted the government…

    David Cameron (Prime Minister)

    I personally believe that this result will settle the debate over changing our electoral system for the next generation.

    Matthew Eliot (Leader of the No campaign)

    You get exactly one chance at this. As Ru Paul likes to say, Do Not Fuck It Up.
