Into the Pit: 031: Apoptygma Berzerk – Live at Corporation Sheffield – 21-May 2006
This was one of those gigs that really took me by surprise. I mean, Apop are no longer the draw they once were, right?
Month: May 2006
DJ: Guest: 014: JUDDER! – 12-May 2006
…onto Judder for a good five hours plus of madness – then sleep, food and a wander ’round town, then back up to Sheffield at nearly the corresponding time that we left at yesterday.
Into the Pit: 030: The Dresden Dolls – Live at the Leadmill Sheffield – 07-May 2006
Frankly, I can’t think of a single band that sound anything like the melting pot of sound that DeVotchKa boil up.

Into the Pit: 027: Zeitgeist All-Dayer – Live at The Shed Leicester – 30-April 2006
First off, I am going to mention the logistics and organisation, as both were seriously lacking. My girlfriend and I decided that we wouldn’t rush into town (we were staying at her dad’s in south Leicester anyway), and when we got to The Shed we were glad that we did – despite doors being 1400, […]
