I've managed to rack up quite a few Spunge gigs over the last few years but this was without doubt the best one i've been to, and by quite a margin.
We spent 3 hours or so in the car before hand as we had to come up from south London and got there quite early. Not a lot to do really except get drunk and listen to Spunge do their sound check. We managed to keep ourselves busy by cajoling various members of the band into looking at my mates Spunge tatoo and talking drunken cack with us.
The actual gig itself was more or less the same playlist as te One More Go tour, and was very energetic. The crowd was brilliant and the gig reached its peak when Alex dedicated Roots to me and my mate.
Overall it was well worth the ridiculous commute and can't wait for the tour at the end of the year, although I fully expect us to see them in Norway soon. Cant wait.
Skank on

I was absolutely sloshed by the time the gig finished. I thought lots of pints of Fosters would cool me down. All I can remember about the end of the gig was Jarv laughing his arse off at us as we left.

That sounds like you had an amazing time!!! I had to wait 45mins on the stairs cause they put the gig off till 8. I kept thinking "well i could've had a proper tea and a shower after work instead of rushing!" but how was i supposed to know that the gig had been put back?! At least it was made up for. I stained my shirt i was wearing though! i was slammed into that rusty metal post next to the stage and got a black mark on my chest (it hasn't come out in the wash) and my brand spanking new one more go baby t which i bought that night has black spashes up the back which ALSO hasn't washed out gargh!! I went out and bought vanish though.
