I was at Lovebox at the weekend, courtesy of the good folk over at State. It really was a poxfest. MCD should be ashamed. I doubt they give a fuck tho. Moreover, Groove Armada should be disgusted to be associated with something so amateurish. That said N*E*R*D were fantastic. Some reviews of Lovebox here, here and here.

Much thanks to the good folk over at State towers. They had a giveaway on their site for tickets to Lovebox this Saturday. And I am delighted to have won 2. So cheers State. And thanks especially to the dude. Tá an áthas orm an ticéadí sin a glacadh.

So to celebrate here’s the link I sent them that was deemed funny enough to win the tickets…
