Yeah, me and Cookie Holiday went to that Liverpool gig! What a night!!! They were freakin awesome!
There is a story that goes with this night actually. The gig started at 9pm so at 4pm, Cookie and I decide to go get our "prenight" alcohol in...all's well thus far. So yeah we get a full 75cl bottle of vodka each and think no problem, we've got 5 hours to drink it, we should be fine...drunk but fine!

5 hours of drinking to loud Morning Musume and Polysics music!

20 minutes before the gig, I can hardly stand and Cookie is laying his own BLACK vomit

on his bed! At this point my friend Ste had joined us and was struggling to get us out of the flat to the gig. It took me a while but I got used to walking again so we got Cookie up and relatively clean. We make the walk to Korova, which takes about 20 mins from our student residence only to be told that Cookie wasnt aloud in wearing a Liverpool FC top and that I, ME!!!, the one that was NOT!!! face down in a pool of his own vomit, am too drunk to be aloud in

! SO we walked back up the hill, leaving Ste in Korova to find a friend that was already meeting us there. We get back to the flat 20 minutes later but Cookie doesnt have anything else he can change into as he is in the process of moving out and only has what he is wearing. So I lend him a shirt and a hoody and we head back, this time I act much more sober. I remember looking at the bouncer and saying "Aight there.....mate!" in the most pissed voice I could have even though I was really fighting it! Somhow we got it!

Then on the way to the basement for the gig I ran into Polysics' stage manager and....Hiroyuki Hayashi! I can't remember what I was saying to him, something about being in love with the band and various other embarrasing drunken things I am sure, I just remember shaking his hand for like a solid minute whilst sprouting all this crap! With the little dignitty I could gather, I eventually forced myself to follow the others to the basement. We were stood right by the VIP room, so each time a band member wanted to leave, they brushed passed me! It was awesome!
So yeah that was the epic tale of when Cookie Holiday and I saw Polysics! It took a further 4 hours for them to come on stage so we were sober by that point, but DAMN it was an awesome night! Everyone went mental for I, My, Me, Mine!
