Date: 2006-10-19 02:20 pm (UTC)Blue Room = my fave Orb track by a country mile. The 7" mix, anyway.
Re: Meanwhile In the UK
Date: 2006-10-19 02:23 pm (UTC)I was very into the Orb at this point. I queued up for the midnight opening of Tower Records to buy UFOrb and get it signed. Unfortunately Dr Alex Patterson and Thrash were so stoned they were only able to sign about one record every 5 minutes so after 5 hours queueing we were all sent home with but a free sticker to show for it.
