Well.. it wasn't in the pool, but it was in a car park from a building after a gig.

Bloody shame, cos i quite rated this lot:

Bit concerned they've named their debut album 'Christ Died for our Synths'. Hope it's not all happening again.

Anyway..

The best of 'Ou Est..'

Was it suicide or was the guy just a silly idiot who dived off to try and show everyone how cool it was to be a hedonist - only for the stunt to go tragically wrong?

If it was the latter then, I'm sorry, what a fool.

If it was the former then...... my god, why go that that extreme?

Don't think he was trying to be a hedonist. He was probably seriously wrestling with the prospect of maybe paralysing a young girl in the audience by accident earlier in the day. Something about a crowd surfing attempt going badly wrong...

Poor sod. The irony is the girl will probably be fine and there is apparently no lasting damage.

Hadn't heard them before but have since checked out some of their choons on YouToob. A few promising singles there, nothing groundbreaking mind but what a waste.

Shite name for a group tho :uhoh:
