What happened?
Ophelia Hoxton: He started at 7.30 and played for about 3 hours, pretty consistently apart from messing up a bit on Fuck Forever. Alan Wass played for a bit (he's the one in the cowboy hat in the pictures), Lethal Bizzle (ah ha), Bert Janks (? - no idea, from the 60's apparently) played/rapped with him too. Lethal Bizzle did the rapping, Bert the playing by the way. A couple of the songs were a bit shit but majority were good and a couple excellent.
Funbongo: Oddly I once had to transcribe an interview with Lethal Bizzle and the guy talks at 486mph, he also uses words that sense make no.
Albert Hoxton: He is also a world classless rapper
Surprises:
Ophelia Hoxton: He managed to play for 3 hours without falling over. He didn't do any reading/poetry which I thought was a bit of a shame.
Albert Hoxton: Y iz mi x wifey Ofeeeelia writing for ya (Im in Lethal Bizzle mode)?
Funbongo: Pipe down Albert
What did Kate Moss look and perform like?
Ophelia Hoxton: Looked pretty pretty but she's tiny. She kind of skipped on, sang for 20 seconds and skipped off again so couldn't really tell how she could sing. That might have been the idea!! He did dedicate What Katie did next to his 'beautiful fiance' which was quite touching (hurl)
Albert Hoxton: He usually dedicates that one to me, my fake leg is called Katy.
Funbongo: Leave your gammy/gammon leg out of this
The Libertines - What Katy Did
How did you find Hackney?
Ophelia Hoxton: The Empire was an awesome venue although could have done with a telescope to see from where we were sat. Wasn't too worried about getting robbed but then didn't really spend too much time wandering around presenting a target.
Albert: Firas was in Holloway that night, no danger
Funbongo: Albert, that is out of order. Firas is not a thief; he is just the filthy terrorist
How do you now feel about Doherty?
Ophelia Hoxton: Haven't really changed my opinion, always thought he was very talented just a bit of a fuckwit.
Albert Hoxton: Ophelia's shitting potty mouth is why we got divorced.
Funbongo: Do you think Peter is a sceintologist like us Albert?
Albert Hoxton: That's a given, that's a given
What was his banter/interaction with the crowd like?
Ophelia Hoxton: He had a bit, but he did seem quite high/drunk/wasted/normal couldn't really tell as he seems to be the same no matter what the occasion.
Albert Hoxton: I am off to listen to the new Ne-Yo album.
Funbongo: Wait for me.
What were the best things?
Ophelia Hoxton: Fuck Forever, the Libertines songs he did, Down in Albion.
Albert Hoxton: Stop swearing.
Funbongo: Keep your eye on the prize Albert; this Ne-Yo album has a Jay-Z track on it.
What annoyed you:
Ophelia Hoxton: Screaming girls that I could have easily thrown a pint over. Guys behind me talking about how they were at the age now that they should start thinking about getting married. What?
Albert Hoxton: What is a pint?
Funbongo: It is a long wooden boat used on rivers, like in Cambridge.
Babyshambles - Albion
Rating out of 14.6:
Ophelia Hoxton: 10.7
Albert Hoxton: Am I meant to be scoring Ophelia or Peter Moss?
Funbongo: I give the Ne-Yo album 11.1, its actually good.
