    Takes me back to 'The Venue' in London with Dreadzone, 1993 i think it was, Great times, stayed in a house with a story written from the ceiling on the top floor which went all round the house underlining itself to a point whereby the end of the story reached the bottom of the ground floor skirting boards at the front door. Great gig though. Dreadzone had Dreds then. Awesome.

    just got back from alchemy2012...was very good, old style. Best I've been to since about 1991. RDF played & were awesome. Also playing there was Here & Now, Nik Turner, Daevid Allen, Back to the Planet, P.A.I.N, plus loads of other great bands. I miss the old times so much, before Queen Bitch Thatcher breathed her poison. Still can't believe they did what they did...BUT there are a few good fezzies worth going to. But - no herbs for sale on whole site!!! Still, worth a look next year.
