Ouch, bit hungover from last nights Not Clickable, but it was well worth it!

It wasn't as busy as last months, but i was expecting that - we didnt have Leafcutter John headlining this time, plus there was some heavy competition with Architecture In Helsinki playing along the road, The Leaf Labels' 10th birthday celebrations down at the Spitz, with Murcof, Efterklang and Sutehk, Tunng playing over in west london, The Wrens playing somewhere else, and thats just the shows that i wouldnt have minded going to, there was also Maximo Park, oh yeah, and another big one was 65daysofstatic and Youth Movie Soundtrack Strategies.

Starting off with a beautiful set from sanso-xtro, those guys have grown so much artistically - from Melissa's solo beginnings to the live beast that they have become - most excellent!

Mandelbrot Set kicked it off with some fierce full on wall-of-sound, and made everyone sit up and take notice, running through most of the new album's material. Their album is gonna be a corker.

And finishing the evening up were the indescribably amazing Phil Collins 3! You gotta check these guys out next time they are playing in your town, full on spastic noisecore costumed antics, and some fierce fierce music! Check out their live video at http://www.tpc3.co.uk
