Superb stuff - glad to see all that hard work hasn't gone to waste.

John, are you going to go to this?

Is Nick really the only person attending this event???

It would appear so...

Some good performances from Toolshed, Seaming and Ken/Graham/Howard so far...

Tonight it's Biting Tongues, Homelife's Atlas (formerly Duo), together with Spaceheads and Triclops.

I might need a week off after this...

Well, recovering (although I think I've developed a cold?) from those 4 nights.

Top stuff, and great to experience Toolshed, Biting Tongues, Homelife Atlas, Ken Hollings (Welcome To Mars, Ego In Exotica Sum, Dr X - the latter two featuring members of Toolshed/Tongues), Mayming (Seaming and Semay), and The Sisters Of Transistors over 4 days in London.

Recommended.

Must say it was a great experience to be able to cover so much music in a week. I thought the TOOLSHED set on Thursday Night was very special,everyone on top form. Shunt is an amazing Space and the people who run it were lovely-not shure about the Rats though and dont touch the walls.
Hope one day we can get enough budget to do it with 808 involved-could do one album a night (like Sparks did )
and well done Nick -the only one who made it every night (well me too)

Could we at least get a 'Sisters' album out before that happens?
