    They certainly do rock! I like them a lot. I actually didn't have a clue who they were until I got my timing completely wrong at Glastonbury and turned up two hours early for Spiritualized.

    But it was my best mistake of the whole weekend I think, it definitely beat going to watch England lose in Euro2004 and subsequently getting lost and sleeping in a christian sanctuary.

    But aye they were marvellous, had the whole place going absolutely crazy. They were playing in the then named New Bands Tent, and that has all these supports kinda encircling the most pit type area - Anyway I had my arse parked on the middle one of those and I basically had to dance as all the supports were bouncing!

    Not that the music wasn't enough or anything, just impressive really!

    Yup, the Isle of Wight's finest popsters, they're fantastic. Saw their Glasto warm-up gig this summer.

    I've just ordered myself a ticket for their gig at Brixton Academy in March. A few months to wait, but really looking forward to it. Going on my own, which is cool - these things have to be done!

    Sadly missed their gig at Glastonbury this year - you know how it is at that place. Things end up going by the wayside....your plans, your mind, all that good stuff. :p

    Well......I saw 'em a couple of weeks ago at Brixton Academy and they were AMAZING! Such a great live band, a talented bunch of guys. I never knew they were behind that 'hey la hey mina manina' song, so when that kicked in it was like "AhhHAA!".
