Not as poor as the s h i t hole my mate has booked us in up in Newcastle... not planning on spending much time there like but f u c k me its poor ... cheeky buggers charging £80 a night for the privilege too...

Although a fair amount of train is required (I'm halfway up here already in Manchester so not so bad for me) as it's just over an hour from Newc to Boro... so won't be getting back to Newc much before 9:30pm which is exactly the time that the Toon comes alive!!!!!!!!!!!! Plenty of lubrication required for those train journeys at any rate

Closely followed by The Fall (MES is a genius), Radiohead, Bowie, The Clash, The Smiths, Sonic Youth, Sebadoh, Mega City Four (RIP Wiz), Ride, The Specials, PJH, Beefheart, Velvets etc etc etc

Targeted this game as the possible clincher weeks ago and so it has proved to be.. I'm no smart arse but soooo glad I'm going... stopping over in Newcastle so hoping for the win and a great night out up there... spent a year in Boro doing an MSc and its god awful
