not long from what I remember, just under an hour to get there id say, apparently Narberths practically the one main road anyway so it shouldnt be to hard to find the place either

There's nothing on Therapy?'s website about who is supporting, can't find out anywhere!

I'm surprised it's in Academy 3 as well... it's tiny. Should make for a good intimate gig though.

I've always been of the opinion that cheese & onion are green and salt & vinegar are blue. As far as I'm aware, it was Walkers that ballsed this up, and they must know it because it's even a question in their FAQ (http://walkers.corpex.com/cr15p5/faqs.asp), which they sadly sidestep by pretending to misunderstand...

Q: Why are Cheese & Onion packets blue and Salt & Vinegar packets green?
A: Quite simply they have always been that colour!

... er, yes, we know that Walkers' packets have, but that's not what people are asking, is it?

Look, there's even an online petition to right this terrible wrong: http://www.petitiononline.com/walkers/petition.html

A war is coming, people...

There's an interesting little piece on the crisp packet debate here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A3403928 (scroll down till you're almost at the bottom of the page - the bit you want is headed up 'The Blue Packaging Debate')

Well... If they're throwing them away it's clear they're wrong... :wink:

Seems fair if Walkers have always been that colour. They'd be side stepping it a bit if the question was "Why are Cheese & Onion packets blue and Salt & Vinegar packets green when some other (inferior :wink:

) makers do it the other way around?"

Incidentally, have you read this?

Aw, they know exactly why people are asking. I doubt any other crisp manufacturers get asked to explain their colour schemes. According to that BBC link I posted, it was Walkers who bucked the industry standard. As such, the MD should be made to sprinkle grated cheese and onion on his chips every night as punishment.

Yeah, I saw that when I was googling yesterday. A shame he didn't post it.

Therapy? were really good, didn't expect Diane to work well at all but it was very very schweet

Engerica were blinding aswell.. Best support band I've seen since Therapy? themselves were supporting The Wildhearts at the Oxford Zodiac a year+ back..

Would recommend checking out the Engerica site, there's a couple of their songs on there..

Cheese and onion? Green. GREEN. End of argument, dag nab it!!

by **Piedude** » 28th May 06, 21:32

Engerica were the best of the support bands at the Narberth gig IMO, but I didnt like the singers high pitched screaming much....oh, heres a pic I took of the bassist too
