... I was at Fiddlers in Bristol with Mrs. K for a Minotaur Shock gig.
In fairness, at the time (Sunday 2nd June 2002), Mum and Dad were living in Eire, a gruelling 14-hour door-to-door trip each way, there wasn’t an 'official' party on that date and I'd spoken to Dad on the phone to wish him happy birthday earlier in the day.
I remember that it was an enjoyable gig, not least because it was also being broadcast live on BBC Radio 3 as part of their Mixing It programme, presented by Robert Sandall and Mark Russell.
I might be misremembering this bit, but I seem to recall that we all spent a lot of time sitting on the floor!
A great line-up: in addition to headlining hometown heroes Minotaur Shock, Foehn aka Debbie Parsons, also from Bristol and previously one-half of Third Eye Foundation, plus Manchester trio Mum & Dad, whose releases on Andy Votel and Damon Gough's Twisted Nerve label had caught my ear.
So on a technicality, I did spend the night with Mum and Dad, just not mine…!
A lovely surprise to find that Future TuesDay has posted the entire show on YouTube. Enjoy!
