This was one of those nights.

Too right FC, all this inconsistent capitalisation is absolute bollocks, up the commies!!!
By the way, I went to that Cardiff show and it pissed on the April show at the Phil with a full bladder from a great height. For me, that was the most disappointing Bunnymen show I've been to but the Cardiff gig on Monday was great, and quite a relief to hear they hadn't messed too much with the songs. Just saying, obviously I know fuck all as I don't write for the Times.
