Cherrystones played the Russell Haswell remix of Earth off of Legacy of Dissolution if i remember correctly. I did think that Lee Dorrian had put some weight on!

hah, that would explain why he seemed to have changed appearance so much since I last saw him about 18 years ago. There was a sign on the door saying tickets were all sold out so I'm not sure how it worked for the fella below.

Unfortunately Lee Dorrian had to cancel at short notice so Cherrystones took his place. Check him out, he really knows his stuff. I know he played some tracks by Demons and the track immediately before Sunn O))) came on was the totally awesome 5 Man Army by Morricone. There was also a track with what sounded like mad bagpipes in that was something by Albert Ayler apparently. I think there was some Blue Cheer in there somewhere as well but I could be wrong...

a bit of shameless plugging here, but for anyone who enjoyed last night, I have a musical project of my own - 'the haxan cloak'. It is dark, orchestral, drone-ish music, with a lo-fo aesthetic. I have a myspace here http://www.myspace.com/thehaxancloak I'm playing at shunt lounge, london bridge, next wednesday at 8:45pm. there is a facebook event group here http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=54653506428&ref=mf if anyone fancies - the more the merrier :) thanks for looking!

I definitely heard "The Usurper" by Celtic Frost, and possibly an early Earth song which I didn't recognise.

the Bathory song was 'One Rode To Asa bay'. And did Lee actually DO any DJ-ing? i was stood by the deck and it was a short haired man with a hat on doing most of it. and one of the records seemed to be by a band called Kremlin (?). Never heard of them.

I recognised a handful of things that Dorrian played. "Evolved As One", the first track from Napalm Death's "From Enslavement To Obliteration". He also played a track from "Hammerheart" by Bathory. After the Sunn O))) set, he played "Hamburger Lady" by Throbbing Gristle. Not really familiar with the more Sabbathy stuff.

in fact, if anyone remembers anything lee dorrian played, it would be awesome to know. Particularly the more sabbath-y stuff.....

Awesome gig. Very glad they gave out ear plugs....did anyone dare to not use theirs?? Does anyone know the piece of music played before sunn came on? the one with all the crazy gongs and bells and stuff...it was awesome.

Hoping to see some of the photos people took, as I didn't take my camera along. In particular any shots of the last 10 minutes when they hung their guitars from the ceiling and started working the knobs on the amps would be nice. Awesome gig. Sunn O))) played for almost two hours, seemed to go on forever.
