Gig: Be Your Own Pet @ Oxford Zodiac @ Carling Academy Oxford March 30th

My birthday, small venue, mental punk band, awesome night. First band on, Damn Shames were awesome, two guitars, a bass and a drum machine, mental on stage, definatly worth checking out! Once Be Your Own Pet came on stage, i wernt sure how the crowd would be, we just stood there until 2 songs in when the mosh pit started, BYOP played all there more loved short songs from before their first album, from the first album and from the new album, It was a shame there wasnt an encore, they played about 15-20 songs in about just 35 minutes, and they are cool as Fudge!

After the gig when i was outside the drummer walked past me, 'where was the encore' i shouted, he then walked over and talked to me, he was a bit of a legend, i thanked him for making my birthday awesome and we exchanged high fives and 'safed' each other. Then Jemina Pearl walked past, and i was a bit shy but i finally managed to talk to her, got a photo and thanked her for an awesome birthday, it was cool.
