808 State Discussion

I could do with a new 808 beanie hat, there's a hole in mine

Yeah I’m going. Still waiting to receive ticket by email though. Will message you when I’m there

I'm just reliving the good old days of yesteryear, and looking at gigs again.

Day tickets are available for this, but the Live Forever website says 808 are playing on the Saturday night. Can you confirm it is the Friday night?

Caller : "Oh, fantastic"

Thanks for the reminder, I've been checking the website to see when it was available...........now ordered!

WOW, fantastic!!

The holy grail has been found, and what a week to find it.

No pre-booked family long weekend holiday excursion to Wales is going to stop me from attending this 'once in a 30 year event'. See you there!!

Typical that my two favourite tracks from the EPs don't appear on the album, Spiral Arms and Bataglia.

Bataglia seems to be the strongest of the tracks and was the one that certainly got the crowd going at Bluedot. As it's catalogue number BOBSTATE, a nice touch would be an 808GREAVES mix of one of the tracks further down the line, a tribute to the legend that was BOB Greaves that presented Granada R...
