I presume everyone knows where it is?

And, who all is coming?

So far, i've got Me, Jarvo, Grant, Ness and Greg, Grant, Monty, Lunatic Fridge (who wont be there until late) Mr and Mrs Barney Army, Colin (if he recovers from Bird Flu in time) and i think thats it? Anyone else?

Me & Milky are coming up for it, but we have to visit Milky's parents in Rochdale first. :(

Dunno what time we will be free so will probably go straight to the venue. See you all in there!

"WHY CAN'T YOU SEE!!!"

AH..LOUIE LOUIE....AAAAAAHHHH!!!

By all accounts a good time was had by all. Wish I could rember more of it.

I remember thinking that Barney Army would make a total arse of the rat a tat's and being stunned into silence when he didn't. Now that's not something that happens a lot!

Did Re Order play Hurt ?

Congratulations to Barney Army for recognising me in my John Shuttleworth jacket and introducing himself. No prize though but the rat a tat tat was indeed excellent.

I forget myself. A big thank you to Re Order themselves of course. Excellent stuff and well worth seeing. 'Barney' sounded like the real thing although whether he would have worn a pair of Arsenal shorts is debateable.

Fantastic night, good turn out, great performance by the band and BA/Robbo guesting. (How can we keep track of who is who with all this Robbo/Diamond business!)

It was an eventful night with many stage invasions, Liam nicking most of the rider from the dressing room, poor Al's spectacular fall and Monty's gymnastics.

Thanks to Will for guesting those who had travelled long distance. Great to see the legs out again, even if the shorts were inappropriate Arsenal!

Slowly the reports come in as people sober up.

Good to see some usual faces - Ness, Greg, Liam, Al, BA.

Good to see some new ones too - Monty, Missy Jem - others I was too pissed to remember.

BiginOil popped his Re:Order cherry - I hope we were gentle with him.

And if anyone can remember how I ended up on my arse at one point please let me know.

What a great night... Re-Order were excellent and I've not danced on a floor that sticky for years, it took me back to the good old days of the Marquee.

Most people ended up on their arse at some point, Al dropping a pint early on didn't help the condition of the floor!

I seem to remember Liam trying to recreate the QEH gig by almost taking out Wills teeth with the mike stand

Which strongman lifted me up? My head almost cracked the ceiling

thumbs up for Sunrise, certainly got people moving, great cover.

I remember!! You and Monty were belly jumping each other and i think Monty got a bit carried away and launched you on your back. It was hilarious, i think only me and JT witnessed it, everybody else was moshing!! Very funneh!

(Not as funny as Al's fall though, serves him right for bullying me)

Had a top, top night. Re:Order are amazing, Will really does sound like Barney! Wish i hadn't been sober but had a great night regardless. Good to put names to faces!

If anyone thought I was bad at the gig, should have seen it when i got home. I was slouched on the floor, talking absolute nonsense by all accounts.

The gig itself. Well, Re: Orders rider wasnt been used. And i only drunk this horrible bright orange cider which didnt agree with me. Nice to hear Sunrise get played, nice to know that constant moaning over 8 months gets me somewhere.

Ness Order wrote: ...poor Al...

I don't remember anything about this, but what I have heard makes me doubt that any protrayal of Al as an unfortunate victim is entirely appropriate!

As ever, great to read the accounts on here - puts the smile back on the face (and fills in a couple of gaps).

We behaved quite badly, didn't we

Best laugh of the night was Jem trying to stay upright in heels in the middle of a three-man fight at the front of the stage, escaping to the relative safety of the side of the room, shouting 'stop pushing me into the mosh pit' over her shoulder, then jumping straight back into the throng. Sober? My arse!

Hurt? It's a miracle nobody was.
