Fall Gig, Dec. 12 2003, The Mill, Preston

Boxoctosis / Telephone Thing / Mountain Energei / Green Eyed Loco Man / Mod- Mock.Goth / The Joke / Middle Mass / Walk Like a Man / Contraflow / Mr. Pharmacist / Janet, Johnny and James / Theme from Sparta F.C. / Protein Xmas / Mere Pseud Mag Ed // White Lightning / Big New Prinz / Dr. Buck's Letter // Bourgeois Town

Me and ZZ. Went to the pub that used to be Moss Cottage beforehand. It was very cold outside.

The Mill was full of middle aged blokes. Lots of baldness. Bought a couple of Fall badges and grabbed the best seat on the raised seating area (well, we're only little 'uns). Support acts: Only remember the second act, called The Wandering Step. Pretty good in places - 'I Wanna Go To Reykjavik' was excellent.

Fall came on very late, which wasn't good cos we had to catch last train home. Smith looked like gollum and seemed to be pissed as a stoat. Sound wasn't great where we were. I went to the front for a bit and joined in the traditional Mr Pharmacist ruck - very mannered compared with earlier years, but I suppose you're gonna get that with a load of middle aged slightly embarrassed blokes.

We left somewhere mid Big New Prinz.
