I was a cub scut
I've been to loads more too, but my memory kind of fails me
Worst:hmm... this one that was a guy from arcade fire, he was boring, and his support act was a guy who played the same note on a chello for 45 minutes, and nothing else.
Best: Pendulum at the astoria (although i was too wasted to remember a lot of it)
Last: Rollo Tomassi & Melt banana at ULU. the girl from Rollo Tomassi is so hot.
Upcoming gis: Soulfly, Skindred fo shiz... probably some other random ones...
and these, (linky link) just cos i work there and thats whats on. Am quite looking forward to MGMT and Vampire weekend, although its ages away.
First gig: erm, probably Boxfresh waaay back in the day. XD Worst gig: Never been to a really bad one, there have been a few terrible support acts like (Brigade and In Case Of fire I'm looking at you!) but no terrible gigs. I guess Slam Dunk 08 wasn't as good as it could have been. Best gig: Gah, not fair to ask! Aiden was pretty much amazing, as was TOC 08.

It wasn't that expensive, Carling Academy is pretty cheap.. most tickets were between 5 and 8 quid and the most expensive was for pendulum and that was 17 quid.
all in all, it only came to around 45 quid.
