It is looking increasingly like I will get there about 15 minutes before the opener so I will be, at best, making a quick cameo at any meetup while the rest of you close out your bills.

So I plan to be at 8 in case they need a last minute playlist or whatever, otherwise I'll plan on hanging in the backbar before the show. I'll be the one wearing non pleated pants.
I'm planning on grabbing a bite to eat somewhere need the club around 7pm, if we are meeting up that early.
I am wearing pleated pants now. Will change out of them and wear replacements merch of somesort. Probably an 8:15 arrival.

I'll more than likely be at Satellite room before the show. I'll also have my TFC green tote bag. See you later!
Nice hanging out with Vas Deferens last night. Where were the rest of you clowns? ;D

at the Meetup! Awesome seeing everybody!
Sorry we had to move it but there just wasn't enough space for all the boardies that turned up..
Decent show. I wish they had decided to do their one masterpiece album in its entirety on its 25th Anniversary, instead of relegating it to one song.

Songs From Northern Britain came out in 1997.
FWIW both Grand Prix and SFNB are more highly rated than Bandwagonesque.

Allmusic gives Bandwagonesque the rare 5 star treatment, the other two get 4.5 stars. And Bandwagonesque got a major push here in the US, I'd be very surprised if the other two combined sold as much as Bandwagonesque here in the States.
For me personally, Bandwagonesque was the right album at the right time. I was into 80's Britpop and then the poppier side of early grunge, and that album fit into my wheelhouse at the time. By 1997, I had left all of that behind and was completely immersed in Americana. And fwiw, my wife's TF/early 90's into late 90's experience was similar except she moved on to hip hop.

Ok, on certain songs they were very good, but never approached spectacular. On the new songs, they were decent, and on the songs that featured the guitarist on vocals, they were very pedestrian (the songs that Norman Blake and the bass player sang were better).
