...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead, Oxford Zodiac, 5 December 2000
Three galactic mysteries that can't be solved.
Did GMS see the Webb Brothers in October 2000? The odds are good, given that they'd just released Maroon, their one genuinely decent album. But I can't remember pondering which one was Christiaan with two 'a's, as in that Glenn Campbell song written by their dad, and which was the other one, as you might do when watching a set of consistent, dandyish, retro indie-pop. So maybe not.
Likewise, it's unclear how many times AYWKUBTTOD played Oxford in this period, and how many times I stumped up for them. My guess is that the first one was cancelled because of a 'bust-up' about one of their members' 'intense drug problems' and so forth, or they'd broken all their guitars and run out of money.
At any rate, this was between Madonna and Source Tags and Codes, so it's safe to say that whenever and hoewever often they did play, it was right loud and angry and good and that.
