Ayoooo!Krassy - Yikes 20 years! I was at their last UK gig at Shepherds Bush Empire. Awesome band.MrT
- The bassline (that comes in around the 3:20 mark) is ace! Love it!Krassy
- How weird for me, I just y'day had this on, for the first time in years.Nairn
- @Mr T I thought I was going to their last gig, but once I’d bought the ticket they added a second night, so I was at the penultimate gig.Wolfboy
- @Wolfboy - you know what, my memory is hazy enough that I could also have been at the penultimate. I won't tell anyone if you don't!MrT

Great band, I saw them in a small venue then a huge outdoor venue opening up for Radiohead.

Amazing band. From my neck of the woods with friends and family knowing band members, family, friends etc.
Memories early 2000s of them playing in a packed room at an insane house party in a huge multi-level townhouse in the West End of Glasgow one Halloween.

Just Friday I found an unopened copy of the 3EPs CD (with the annoying security sticker still on it!) in a bargain bin at a collectibles store for $2.99. Total score.
Also incidentally I've been getting back into CDs again and they're a really fun, tactile medium that produce great quality sound.
Fuck records, CD's are back!
- Cardboard digipaks are great - been rebuying selected albums.Fax_Benson
- Plastic jewel cases with the little bumps that trap the insert are the worstFax_Benson

This is a weird coincidence... This morning my ex, who I saw The Beta Band with twice over 20 years ago, sent me a post saying Steve Mason is playing a small church in our town for only $20 a ticket.
