Following some bizarre misdirection from our Satnav, which took us through Chesterfield to get to Sheffield, we arrived (surprisingly) only a few minutes later than expected and caught the tail end of 'Future Perfect's' set. They sounded okay, but as I thought when I listened to them on youtube - potentially one dimensional.
It was pretty hot in the Corporation (second room) tonight, but is it ever not in this room? It seemed reasonably sparse in there to begin with but as Cyferdyne set up people started to appear and it became less sparse.... and hotter. Needless to say the tallest man in the world arrived and stood in front of me, but he did keep moving about so it wasn't so bad.
Cyferdyne were (as usual) slightly shambolic, but enjoyable, though I have to say I think they were better in Lancaster earlier in the year. Lots of smelly people in attendance, which I could do without and one girl walking around with her tits out, which I didn't even notice until Rose pointed it out...
Rather amusing watching other people notice and stare, like the tallest man in the world for instance. Supping his pint while the word 'Boooobies' ran through his brain.
Cyferdyne played a couple of new songs, 'Breathing' sounded very good, lets hope they get the album out soon.. and if someone could tell the singer that playing a gig in your Adidas trackie bottoms is not cool, that would be, er, cool.
Cyferdyne finished their set with a cover of Example's 'Changed the Way You Kissed Me'. Neither of us knew it, but having Googled it, damn if that isn't the blackest sounding white guy on the planet!
As the set drew to a close there seemed to be more and more dry ice being pumped into the venue, which made taking the 'end of set' photo a little difficult, but they did it anyway... however, it didn't exactly turn out great.
