An intimate venue , 100 of your friends/enemies/exlovers , and one band/artist. Who would it be?

For me it would have to be Tom Waits!

I am posting this to hopefully keep me busy throughout the last working day of this shitty short week!!!!

Ben Folds Five.
Ben Folds would do, but the Five would be fantastic.

His gigs feel very intimate in 'in-joke'y regardless, so with just 100 people would just be... *makes some kind of handgesture to express how you cant express how great it would be*

you say "Ben Folds Five", but we all know you really want "Five"

For a second choice I would have to say my all time favourite act of sonic Youth....... but only if they supplied the ear-muffs.

Posted by arsepuppy, 09:21, 24th April 2003:
 
Rik Waller would not fit in an "intimate venue"
Posted by ilovebeerme, 09:23, 24th April 2003:
