A MANIC MILLENNIUM

Spent New Years Eve seeing in the Millennium at Millennium Stadium ina hopitality box thanks to Scott Thomas.

A few us were in a hospitality box right behind the Royal Box - the only royalty sitting in front of us was Cerys of Catatonia.

We had a fridge jampacked with tinnies - at least it was before we got started on it!!

The Millenium itself was perhaps the non-event of the Century and none of itcould ever live up to the media hype. It seemed many had unrealistic expectations of all events.

In isolation I thought The Manics gig was a top event. The Welsh bands -Feeder, Super Furries and Manics - all put on great shows. I love SuperFurries but Feeder probably had the best response of the support acts.

Watching from our privileged position, that was a happening gig on the floor,it was bouncing!

A night I'll never forget.
