:-D
Debauchery and lechery FTW.
ah man, that brings back memories of you blagging me and Tina into the Trafalger Square "embassy" event for that. Such larks, such youngsters.
Do you remember the first time we met up - you, me, LordPaul and... Simon Roberts, when my mates at Lumen launched the - what would it have been - PS2, by projecting it on a building across the road. Seemed so radical then.
& where do the cheekbones go?
Bradford's most famous teenager?
oh fuck, yeah! Where was that, one of the bars around the Corn Exchange in Leeds? Yes that was very cool.
A lot of competition from serial killers. Bradford rather cornered the market in the tail end of the last century.
I've just spent an inordinate amount of time trying to work out where and when it was, and what console it was promoting.
I think it might have been at The Townhouse, which at the time was the Place To Be - and there are some very white buildings opposite. I had it firmly in my head that it was a northern launch for an iteration of the Playstation, but I'm becoming less sure.
As for when, haven't a clue. 2000? PS2?
I’m sure it was PS2 - it was out already in Japan I think but still not available in the UK. Pretty sure we had Tekken (or some kind of fighting game anyway) on the wall and some demo setup on a regular telly with Gran Turismo 2.
but I could be making this up. 2000 would be around the time I was getting sent up to Leeds to work quite often so I definitely had a few evenings free to do this sort of nonsense. It fits.
The sort of bar where Leeds United footballers (then getting into Champions League semifinals and so on) would go. Can’t remember the name at all.
