Aye. I wasn't even the slightest bit hung-over saturday morning. Or sunday morning for that matter.

PPOT, next time please make the event last longer because it was so much fun (Retro Week or something). Thank you!

I agree!
What is the deal with people coming these concerts and talking ALL THE TIME thoughout the performances! I'm mostly talking about them nobles that yelled over Rob Hubbard performance and talked a lot during PPOTs gig at Brighton. Why can't people met in the pubs before the event and TALK then!!

I'd like to say "SHUT UP" like that Sergeant Major on "It Aint Half Hot Mum"

We can't make people shut up or even ask them to. It's, at least, the Danish culture to talk during musical event.

There are two kinds of communication during sets in this respect. The one where people talk when it's not annoying and the one where it is. People should have buckled up during the Visa RÃƒÂ¶ster set since the sound system had problems filling the entire room. Others should stop yelling requests for the zillionth time and people booh'ing and the like, well, guess my opinion about them. At one point during SID80s' set I seriously looked for a bouncer to get rid of two guys, but in vain.

There were people that during the event spoke rudely to performers about the music (the bar staff included, which really pissed me off when I heard about it). Those should have been warned and then bounced. It's a free country and I would have like to use the bouncers in that respect

Well, social ineptitude was the reason many people got into computers in the first place back in the day...

Madfidder, It was not intention to forget about the SID80s. Due to the benefit of having the two Brighton performances of SID80s on DVD. It sounds like you guys drowned out the noise people chatting continously.

Anyway I'm SO GLAD that the gig went very well and I'm very interested any future plans to do it again.
