Gather the bruised and imperfected, the cursed and the rejected

'Cowboys and Aliens' was the theme. It is also the name of a great album by Kitchens of Distinction, oddly enough. So, aye, I would write some really interesting, thought-provoking and blah blah blah words in this here space about how grand and wonderful the Fence spooky night celebrations at Stereo were but I cannae honestly really remember it that well and am still a bit hungover to 'dwell', so tae speak. I mean, in brief, I turned up a wee bit late after the start time (erm, six hours late in fact... however my valid excuse of Zombie shuffling with weans does, most certainly, apply here) but thankfully I did witness, in the wonderful company of Duncan and Wendy, King Kenny (as pictured above, the one with the beard) and band playing a blinder and then there was some electronic plinky-plonky Orbital/Underworld type stuff and then some band where, to be fair, the singer sounded like a chain-smoking, throat-cut, wounded deer on a wind-swept hillside surrounded by a pack of hungry wolverines. Aye, I think that's it all covered in about as much depth as I can honestly recount for now. Sorry, likesay, but sometimes you just gotta dance and drink and get HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY to Hi-NRG and more.

  1. I take it this was fun, then? Or do you remember at all?

    When I was at Away Game I barely remember much past one or two either night, which is sort of why I am certain I had an amazing time.

  2. Oh yes! It was a spectacular evening but I do wish I'd left after the Silver Columns set. I can still hear that Gummi Bear bloke screeching in my left ear. Just awful!
