Is there a recording or video of this?


I don't know if there is a bootleg out there of that particular show or not. If there is, I don't know about it. I do have the one from the Paris show though...which as far as I know is the same thing. Pretty amazing too...they play the beginning of P.O.T.R.E. for the first 30 minutes or so.

There are a few things out there that I don't have...I was just saying that I have a lot.


I saw this show in London. It was the highlight of my year. There was a bit where they played over the top of a distorted/fucked-up version of Ram Jam's "Black Betty'. I would love to hear or see this again in bootleg or any other form.

The Krampus were genuinely menacing and cool. It looked like it was some great anarchic fun.

I wish that I could have seen it...but wasn't able to. I know the part that you're talking about. It is cool. Let me see what I can do for you.

I admittedly have a record collecting "problem."


OK, a bit of a cliche but how about Melvins' split 7" with Nirvana on ORANGE vinyl? Not red, not mustard yellow but orange... Apparently they pressed less than 20 and they were only given to band members/management etc.

While I'm here, I'll chip in. Off the top of my head I seriously collect:

Nirvana (inc. genuine Love Buzz)
Aphex Twin + all aliases
Warp Records (inc. almost everything)
Big Black / Rapeman / Shellac (inc. Futurist LP - oh how sad!)
Joy Division
Sex Pistols
+ lots of electronica...

I also have a collecting "problem". Over the years I've tended to get into bands and then collect everything they released including rarities and all formats. It's very dull. Other people I have pretty much *everything* by include Will Oldham, Mogwai, Arab Strap, Flaming Lips, Tortoise, Codeine, Dave Pajo, Nick Drake, Cable (the British band), Bedhead, Don Caballero, Nick Cave, Radiohead, Orbital, Low, Grandaddy, Fugazi, Dirty Three etc. etc.
I've actually just made myself bored thinking about it so I'll stop there.
