Last night myself and ~sm went to see The Fall..

So the doors were due to open at 7.30pm, but we decided that we didn't really want to watch the support bands, so went for 9pm instead..

We got there and headed to the bar upstairs because The Fall weren't due to come on until 10pm

We got a good spot to stand in, and had to wait until about 10.20 for anyone to emerge.. most of the band then came on and started to play some music.. but it was another few minutes until Mark. E. Smith emerged..

He came on to stage, clad in a white shirt and black pants, with a black leather jacket and a pair of black leather gloves on.. and looked incredibly rough, and far older than he really is..

The set consisted of him messing with the other guys amps and the synth, and manhandling the stage hand, who'd come on to move a mic stand that Mark E. Smith had been throwing around, he also tried to throw his bassist off stage, and kept going off stage and singing from off stage..

The gig ended after 2 encores, it was, to say the least, an experience..
