Saturday 10th September - The Port Mahon, St. Clements Street, Oxford Pat Fish - Anton Barbeau - Joe Woolley - The New Moon. Masters of Budvar on the road again. Admission £3:00. Pat Fish playing a part acoustic, part digital set, with live percussion from Russ Cooper (Wilson).

Oxford gig a glorious great big mess. The New Moon were on fine form, Anton turned in a tuneful double act, Joe was excitable. Future editors of the NME chatted away throughout. Russell and I got on and whacked out a passable acoustic version of Quality People, but the new 17 on my acoustic was in open revolt throughout Soul Happy Hour, which was disfigured accordingly. On the next number I was re-tuning the little sod as I went along. Things got a bit...um...passionate and by the end of it, the acoustic was skidding across the floor. Switching to my Burns electric had a soothing effect on the sound, but just then the DAT kicked in, brutalising it up all over again. >From then on I enjoyed myself thoroughly. Many thanks to Matt from the New Moon for putting it all together.

That set list in full:

Quality People, Soul Happy Hour, Play It All Night Long, Thoughtless Kind, Stop This City, Shame About You, No Winners,
