I applaud you for always including the Bunnymen and Mary Chain in every show.
Thanks for playing the Associates. How about something from The Comsat Angels… early stuff preferably. Can’t believe you got Lard and X Mal Deutchland in there. Nice!
I actually played Comsat Angels in this show… but will do so again in the future, too
