I have followed this band for years. I cant believe that we wont see them do this again, What a way to finish a great band. Big lump in my throat just thinking about it. Barras was the best gig ever.
What a night that was, I loved every minute of it. My personal highlight was The Taking Of Peckham as on my way to the venue I said to my mate I hope they play it but can't see it. What a touch tho when they did. Carter U.S.M. R.I.P.
I'll never forget when Carter USM came to San Diego around 1991. They were playing HUGE shows in Europe ... but attracted less than 50 people at a local bar. They were great of course, but it was ridiculous how many people turned out. They also blew the fuses a few times with their light show!
Saw him too truffle2. No place for it. Told him he had two choices after he swung for the guy in front of me, get to the back or I'd see him outside - seemed to work as he skulked off to the side, but then again I am 6ft 5..... ;-) Great gig and great to see 'em up there again after all these years. RIP indeed.
Funny, cos the sound on this clip is exactly what it sounded like when I was there that night, ie; fucking terrible! Last night's gig was SO much better :o)
