Watching EAT play live as often as I could.

Hopefully something I'll be able to enjoy again soon, as a reunion is very much on the cards.

Ah, the 90's. My era before I had to grow up, work and become responsible. From 6 until 16 I absorbed so much.

Celebrity deathmatch.
Japanese Imports.
Kelly Brook.
Denise Van Outen.
Jackie Chan movies.
Shiny football stickers.
V series cricket bats.
Ian Rush.
Neil Ruddock.
Ian Right
Alan Shearer.
Steve Macmanaman.
Michael Owen.
World Cup 94 and 98.
Ford and Vauxhall ricers.
Twister.
Jumanji.
Fresh Prince of Bel Air.
Tamagotchis.
Keenan & Kel.
Sister Sister.
Cassettes.
Nokia 3210.
Actually walking down to a mates house and knocking for him to see if he would come out to play.

Just some things off the top of my head.

Seeing Denise Van Outen's name has just reminded of the brilliant Big Breakfast. I really did enjoy that show.

I watch BBC Breakfast now!

I went to that, some of the other bands were pretty good, Levellers, Chumbawamba, Bjork. I only realised a couple of years later Oasis were somewhere near the bottom of the bill on the st tent and I couldn't be arsed going to see them
The Levellers were really good, great bounce.

I also remember it rained during Crowded House's "You Always Bring the Weather"

It also pissed down on the Sunday night during the Primal Scream set.

Phoenix on 96, The Prodigy played two nights.

It's all mostly a blur.

However, I do remember Screaming Lord Sutch opening the Aberdeen University Student Union night club, can't remember the name of the club though.

Me too, I was 19 in 1990 and regard the 90's as my time, it was pretty much 10 years of parting, I meet my wife in the spring of 2000, this marked the end of the 90's and tge end of the single life for me definitely a better decade than the 80's.
