Telescopes/e.a.r gig

went to a gig last week, here's me typing bout it

so i walked in late, part way through the E.A.R set (it were meant to be a Fuxa Set but some mirthsome episode happened at the airport that ended with Fuxa dude being sent to the london bombers prison, then being deported):

When i got there the man Boom were stood in from off some stuff; 2 box's with wires sticking out, an electrical thing and a children's electrical thing
It were hard to tell at points if maybe, he lost his rolly , his wires broke or the children's electrical thing stopped working (he audibly pulled the wire out at one point) or if he were actually playing stuff.
he seemed to be playing a tone and fucking with it. a pretty fine tone it were too. Which got loader but quieter to the end. Sounded ace, bit like the orb with out drums or the first 10mins of a MELA gig.

the Telescopes, what can i say, there were four or five guitars on stages being played but only 3 people. They amped up a projector to use as the rhythm on a tune,. the main dude had a guitar lying on a table , with crocodile clip's attached to some strings that he would flick on occasion, connected too a couple of boxes he would at times play it with a bow and a electronic fan, he would sing.
A lass sat at the back with a guitar and sorta played normally whilst singing.

The other dude had a thermaline (that electrical thing that reacts to your hands being close to it, you know the pixies used it in veloria), had a bass on a stand being played by a hand held fan on a mike stand. At one point he feed the bass amp into its-self and played the feedback#

Wierds gig ive seen, one of the better ones to listen to
