Re: Popcorn

I prefer salted to sweet, but aren't fussy. The best popcorn in my opinion is either home-made so it's still hot (cinemas around here never seem to have it any temperature above lukewarm) or Butterkist toffee popcorn. it's crunchy on two separate levels.

Re: Gigs

My second gig was my favourite, and my first gig didn't really count as it was sitting at the back of a busted concert( the folly of youth ,trust me)
My first real gig was seeing the Who in Dublin, the best gig I have ever been to. There was a great atmosphere, it was loud, and it was The Who.
