Pendulum @ Koko - 28th July 2008

Friends & Fun, Music 1 Comment »

Another amazing freebie courtesy of Mish; tonight I saw InMe and Pendulum at Koko; part of the iTunes festival.

I havent heard the name InMe for years, they got big around 2002 but after that I had just assumed they’d fizzled out; I was never a fan at all. But tonight InMe were tight, they had passion and they were great to watch. InMe really impressed me.

The crowd at the Koko was alot older this time and as such it wasnt too hard to get a good mosh-pit going from the outset.

However, the crowning glory was seeing Pendulum. I’ve previously been told that Pendulum often play live with simply the DJ, tonight however the entire bad were there and they put on a fantastic show. I heard a few minor errors from time to time, but generally very tight and the light show was wicked.

Once again I took on the role of Mosh-Pit General and kicked off proceedings, with some excellant guys and girls in the pit, we had a great time. Somehow we managed to organise a Girls Only Mosh-Pit during Pendulum, the perimeter of which was maintained by a ring of guys drooling over the sight of a dozen girls fighting with each other. Genius.

I don’t know any of these people, but they are all legends.

So, did you guys enjoy it?

I met a lovely girl on the Friday night called Emily, from Stafford. But I lost Emily in the crowd and we were getting on well. So if you know Emily from Stafford or her mates Tash and James (also from Stafford), please get in touch, would be great to here from you.

Yes yes yes! Finally, it actually feels like I’m going to Global Gathering 2008 now. The Global Gathering tickets have arrived and they look pretty savage. They look like I’m going to have a brilliant time at Global Gathering!

Global Gathering 2008 Ticket

The line-up for Global Gathering 2008 is immense. But here’s an interesting quote from Global Gathering about Kanye West:

“Due to the sheer scale of production needed for Kanye West’s performance, on this years main stage he will be the sole artists appearing on the friday.”

So, I expect to see lasers, fireworks, explosions, smoke and exotic dancers at the very mimimum. Sounds awesome!
