Graham,

I guess you stop by here periodically. I wanted to tell you what a great show that was (except for Meat Beat Manifesto's equipment crashing)...

You guys put on an amazing show. I can still remember the laser generated cubes behind you during "Cubik". 808 State was one of the first groups I started following when I started to get into dance/techno music in college.

Just wanted to drop by and say thanks for a lot of great memories.

Cheers!

Cool. You are helping us building the 808 Live archive. So according to the MBM gig archive you were at the 29 March show?

NC is that North Carolina-i remember the after party more than the gig on that one,very friendly people ..
Some one in the pub the othernight remembers 808 doing a school in Failsworth in North Manchester 1n the early 90s (or possably late 80s) - I have no recolection of this but it doesnt mean it didnt happen-apparently someones from 808s cousin sorted it out?????

Yes, that's correct. I still have the ticket stub around somewhere I think...I can scan it in and post it. Give me a little time to find it!

Yes...Cat's Cradle at that time was just a few blocks away from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Since I already own pretty much every album you guys put out, I was wondering if you knew of any bootlegs of you playing live anywhere? I'd really really like to hear one! Thanks again Graham!
