V2000 (Chelmsford) 2000
Saturday 19th to Sunday 20th August 2000Hylands Park, Chelmsford, Essex, CM2 8WQ, England MAP
weekend around £75 (with camping)
"C'mon" screamed Paul Draper, fist clenched at the enormous crowd of people that had gathered at the peoplesound stage.
By the end we were all a frenzy, clapping along to the throbbing solo of "Tax Loss" ("live" rather than the Grey Lantern version), this was the final song of a set that finished all too soon.
We had feasted on old Mansun a la "Take it Easy Chicken", "Stripper Vicar", "Wide Open Space", "She makes my Nose Bleed", "Special/Blown It" and revelled in glorious new material from the "Little Kix" album, such as "I can only Disappoint U" and classics in the making "Comes as no Surprise" "Electric Man" and "Love Is...."
The newer songs weren't as wildly received as the older ones, but give it time boys, soon everyone will love "Little Kix" for the classic it will become.
