25 & a half years ago @ University of London Union, a little bit of history - The Egyptians with Glenn Tilbrook reprising his original backing vocals while doing a grand job of emulating, elaborating even, Peter Buck's 12-string part! There's a brief glitch at 1.25 where I had to join 2 files together. Opening act at this show - PJ Harvey, her London debut ISTR...but the crowd was ours!

Poor Robyn was upstaged and the press was out in force. I had a nasty experience in the bar. A bloke called Jon Driscoll from Waltham Chase, who years before had successfully hassled me to plug his fanzine Teenage Kicks, had become a music media darling by the name of Jon Fat Beast. I spotted him and went over to congratulate him on his success. He blanked me, not cool enough.
