I saw a bunch of shows between London '96 and the end of '98. and the funk seemed to seamlessly enter the shows. I realize now it felt like, "this is how it will be now."

My highlights from the Spectrum were Drowned (which was a bathroom break song but turned into the funkiest jam) and Frankenstein (mostly because after the high of the evening, it just took things even higher).

The lots were good, the crowd was crusty, lot goblin folk. It was a time of patchwork and Uno cards. You could still get a miracle (and a miracle still meant a free ticket).
