LAST NIGHTS OUT part 1

 Last nights out Part 1.

Missing mates, gigs, pubs, skateboard sessions, observing human behaviour..
Got me thinking of last epic nights out i had.

This was a good one.

IMPERIAL WAX , Live Rooms Chester 31st Jan 2020
End of the month of discontent. Tax Return done, got pityful amount of beans left in the bank but was ready to come out of hibination and earn a good hangover.
What better way than wathcing the remaining members of the Fall playing new a with a new Outfit called IMPERIAL WAX in a former working mans club in Chester.
I dont like to book tickets, dunno why,  Ludite? maybe i like to just wing it and be open options.
I don't like limitations on the possiblites of where the night could go? Id like to think Mark E. would approve of this.
However In this case Sean bought us tickets because he is on it and like me needed an away game.  First Pints on me..

Seen The Fall twice towards the end and they were hit and miss, Mark was always visually entertaining but what i do distinctly recall was how solid the backing band were.
Taking this on board and hearing the new single i was hyped for 'the WAX!

Few scoops in The Plums, last minute text to Luke , he's down. We are on our way!
Luke and i were gifted free last minute tickets for The Fall at Kaz a few year ago, so were both heading into this from the same reference point.
Katy stays sober queen and drives  and exchange for the door tax. She is an angel.
Tins in the car, spotify Dj. Hyped. Started getting loud. (like a devil)

Get there kinda early, not too busy, tiny stage.
Pints.
BoB from probe shows up. Good sign.
Support wasnt fussed for. Pintage.
Dj got some retro fit turntables and slick shoes.
Pints and maybe a a hit on a zootah?
The 'Wax plug in and errupt loud as fuck, tight too!
30 people between 19 and mainly 40 ? North West city with a Cannal and once home to the countries largest council estate.. Mark E would approve.
Pint. (smile)
Still figuring what to do with new hair cut at gig, they play my fav tune

BROMIDIC THRILLS!
Pint.
Some  werid argy bargy goes on..
i avoid, not tonight. keep boppin'.

They Finish, ears ringing!
Merch table. £20 for 7'!! 
The Collector in me is tempted but my fears
are confirmed when card in declined on next round.
Hand shakes with band, a long pisses and then we 
are all lured into the room next door where a full tops off glow stick 90s Happy Hardcore Rave night is pounding. 
Pints appear , full tilt lost in the strobes party shapes ensue.
To think we saw Jerry Only on that stage 5 years ago..haha.
mARK E would deffo approve.

eerrr, blurrr. 
Katy Queen sober drives home, Gn'R live all the way home.
She took these pics.
We had one of our last Nights out.
