Thanks for your comment, I'm sorry if I misinterpreted what went on that night. I wasn't trying to have a go or be nasty; I was just expressing my disappointment that a gig I was really looking forward to wasn't as good as it could have been.

Daniel, this is a nasty re-write of what happened. I wasn't late - we did a 7 minute changeover but the other bands had honestly over-run. And I didn't leave cos I'd had enough, I got kicked offstage by venue goons, who have a strict curfew and threatened to cut power and charge me for any over-run. And It REALLY wasn't my fault the set was 20 minutes. It's also bullshit that I didn't try to make up for it, I did my best but sound onstage was fucked as well, plus I'd just been shouted at by some rude techie. Finally, I wasn't having a go at the crowd with the 'hot chip' comment (I thought the crowd was fine), it was a joke about doing an indie-disco build-up in Giraffes, though maybe it didn't come across because I'll happily admit I was pissed off about the other stuff. I'm sorry you didn't like the song choice - doing M1 Song a cappella was because my drummer was still setting up but we'd been ordered to start and told we only had 20 minutes (and btw you might hate it but a lot of people say it's one of their favourites of my stuff). I'd also happily agree this was a shambolic show and I wasn't happy with it but you've made out that I threw excuses around and was somehow to blame, when actually I got royally fucked over and had the right to have been a fuckload more diva-ish than I was. Gutted that you take the nasty option instead of finding out the truth.
