HAPPY NEW YEAR!

aye i'm a day late, get over it...

so NYE was pretty darn awesome. once i'd got used to djing on the end of the bar - no easy feat when your decks are raised high and you're only a short-arse - it was plain-ish sailing (biggest hiccup was probably the fact that five different watches all gave different times for midnight, so everyone seemed to be celebrating invidually - woops...).

strangely enough, bottle rocket's usually carefully compiled lists went somewhat out the window, though from amongst my pickled memory i can recall playing aztec camera, tom tom club, suuns, prince, clinic, blue oyster cult, georgie fame and the blue flames, holy fuck, pulp, melanie, terrorvision, bruce springsteen, the four tops, generation x, janelle monae, mudhoney, black sabbath, big boi, ac/dc, omd, rem, the organ, pixies, alice cooper, new order, dananananaykroyd, super furry animals, meursault, the beastie boys, triple school, devo, sleigh bells, manfred mann, nena, iron maiden and the spencer davis group. fielding played some awesome music whenever i wasn't (in a far more professional and composed manner it must be said) and holy mountain were fucking awesome. i only caught a small bit of the festivities downstairs but i've no doubt it was splendid as well.

now let's get on with 2011 shall we? first bottle rocket of the new year is 22nd january (a week later than usual so stick it in your brand new diaries). see you there!
