I got a very sad text from Matt DC at about half two. Apparently Vitalic had his laptop nicked and so couldn't play :-(

Agoria were a proper oldskool-fest, weren't they? What with LFO, Strings of Life, that big Trans Europe Express thing and whatever that trancey record was that Rob went mental over. Very nice indeed.
And for the first time ever I've made it home awake on the night bus two nights running.

Poor Vitalic, and poor us :(
such a pity, as until that point it was pretty ace as Matt said, but after the announcement the vibe died and the music got progressively shit (Marilyn Manson, fuck's sake).

I assume we left after The Hacker, cos he finished on Flesh & Bone (well, a much messed up version of it anyway...). Great night though, from the sounds of it we left for bagels at the right time!
Can't believe his laptop was nicked, poor bloke.

(xpost - Agoria were both before and after the Hacker. There was a lot of fannying around onstage when Le Onzieme Marche was played and that might have been when the laptop went missing, I think).

The "high-pitched stuttering woop wooping noise" could be Roman Flugels Gehts Nocht? Fits that description anyway, and god knows everyones hammering it at the moment.

we tried to dance too but I couldn't get into it, my mind was like one big :(
Initially they seemed to be doing a good job in a horrible situation but it really deteriorated I thought - Marilyn Manson's cover of 'Personal Jesus' was just a total nadir.
We listened to the Vitalic album at the house party, it was scant consolation.

PS - Anyone want to buy a laptop? One careful owner, scuzzy noise key a bit worn out, otherwise mint.

Plus Out Hud are playing a free show Saturday May 21st at The Marquee, Leicester Square from 7pm as part of that Budweiser thingy. There's a couple more interesting free nights they're doing as well as part of that Bud Rising thing plastered all over the place, though all the stuff you have to pay for looks godawful.

Our Disco got a mention on Radio One last night, not too sure if it'll affect turnout tonight, certainly did last time it happened. Doors around 11ish there anyway - if I can work out anyone's secret identity there I'll probably shout up...

Also, on June 1 from 7pm, Token Girl's Lovelife at 93 Feet East promises to be excellent. My amazingly talented and gorgeous friend Anna-Marie will be playing "grrrl guitar hip-pop electrofash". The last time she DJed was at a house party on Saturday, and she was SUPERB.
