ok, so we got the coach up to rebellion, took like 7 and a half hours.... it sucked.
we arrived at about 7am, and couldn't check into our guest house til midday, so we wandered around the strange strange town of Blackpool for what felt like forever and a day. drank lots of tea, and started the day right with a good ol' fry up!
as the hours progressed, the streets pretty much filled up with punks, psychobillies, skins....all sorts. and little tell tale signs that kinda made you feel that this could end very, very messily.......
the word sober was scrawled on the 2nd day.......)
ok, so so many bands and so little time, so here we go....
chris murray, awesome as always, and i got to see him again a week later at the Underworld playing with the Aggrolites. not too shabby at all!
church of confidence who i was super excited to be seeing again! here's some more arty farty pics which i like....
then we got the brains, who i'd never seen before. i couldnt get any good pics so i gave up. stoopid big phychobilly hair blocking my view! here's the best one i got....
bumped into a good friend i havent seen forever too which is always nice.... i give you Miss Michelle Ghoulmore soon to be wed to Ash Ghoulmore who own an awesome little shop....check it out!
as i was wondering over to the bar, i spotted this......
it's quite possibly the best, cleanest, most awesome backpiece i have ever seen in person. cool guy, told me who did it, but i've forgotten....i'm sure it's someone in Europe..... so appologies to the artist. (lemme know if any of y'all know who did this and i'll credit this fucking awesome piece accordingly!)
* i have since found out (thanks Amalie!) that this was done by the tattooist extraordinaire Judd Ripley who lives in Denmark*
bumped into Fruitbag who is now like, famous and shit, so weird! last time i saw the King Blues was in a pub with about 10 people. They played the ballroom at rebellion, and it was packed....hundreds and hundreds of people! also bumped into Kats again (from London)....
we went to watch suicide bid coz Itch was singing. Also bumped into Jamie Jazz (who i later tattooed in London!) was good to see them all again.
and here's the king blues, had hard times with pics, this is the best one i'm afraid!
then we got none other but the living legend, ade edmondson! me and gary danced and danced....and fell over lots. good stuff!
gary has no teeth and wouldnt smile for this photo, which is a shame, i have loads of blurry ones with him smiling! i love gary. he's awesome!
ok so then.......
more retarded pics, and we got voodoo glow skulls.....
Mad Sin.......
and finally, the after party was awesome coz TV Smith Played with Curch of Confidence. cant go wrong!
ok, done. I think that's the majority of Rebellion done and dusted. I'll prob find a few more random pics, or suddenly remember i forgot something, but right now, i'm done. that just took me forever!
