...at apollo, london yesterday. was anyone there? 3 new songs...
the fans posting reviews at http://www.bjork.com/unity/ seem to be horrified by his set :)
lets see if he's the opener tomorrow at shepherds bush too.

"Last night was my first Bjork gig and to say I was excited would be putting it extremely mildly. Upon arrival we were told that a "DJ Smorgface" or something similar would be playing from 7.30 til 8.30, and Bjork would perform from 9 til 10.30. Instead, we were battered by an incessant cacophany of screaming, swearing, white noise, machine gun fire and what sounded like the inmates of a deranged monkeyhouse. Until 9.20, with no respite and no damn let-up. I almost went mad from the noise, people around me had coats over their heads and generally I think that we were all very upset by the lack of a live band and simply by the sheer crude violence of it"
hahahahahahahaha

» » Good good stuff. I hope he's there tomorrow night. I've never had the chance to see Aphex live.
» » Neither did anyone at the gig last night. He was hidden away from stage. We could only hear him and if you was lucky then you could get a glimpse of his hand

"seemed alot of bods were getting a bit fucked off with the music that woz going on before the start of Bjork's show. True, it got a bit hard to listen to after about half an hour, but the anticipation of seeing Ms B after it all woz more than enough to make me un-annoyed. A few were getting annoyed..... Oh well
------
"I found it a bit disturbing sitting there for Bjork to come on and listening to that dreadful rackett, it totally lost my excitment for bjork to come on."
------
" From the absolute horror that came from the beyond appalling support DJ (I am all for art but that offensive noise does not constitute it in any form, it sounded more like a live feed from the Iraq battlefield!)"
--------
"thanks Bjork for a great concert it was our first time seeing you and you didn't disapoint, but the support was unbearable white noise which fankly disturbed you mentally."
-----
"The support act was,excuse my language,absolutley shit!There was no purpose to such noise,and when the audience started shouting "off,off,off" the guy peered around the curtain at the side of the stage to wave his arm in the air!"
----
"I am sure anybody who had been at the concert last night will understand my disappointment with the first part of the event (the abominable 2 hours of torture from the supporting DJ, which were a truely miserable experience). I do agree that it was an insult to the fans and I cannot help wondering how could Bjork ever agree to have it as a support act. It felt like being a part of a nasty psychedelic experiment and I if it had been for any other artist but Bjork I would have left the place after the first half an hour. "
man i wish i had been there!

And so what if the DJ was a little dodgy, he was loving it! (and it wasn't matmos you dumb ass!)
The DJ only made Bjork sound even better.

uhm our last names are based on the name of the father. So it's hardly likely that you'll be stalking anyone related to björk. Her father name is Guðmundur
dóttir = daughter
Guðmundsdóttir = Guðmundsdaughter

bah, i bet the audiance reacted just like it should have... i mean playing the set he played he knew the overall effect it would have on bjork's fans...
audio destruction of people's mind, look at all the angry reactions on the forum, and imagine the purpose of these tracks is to upset people and make them angry?

it's tricky when you feel that someone has done something on your behalf
it's slippery when your sense of justice murmurs underneath
and it's asking how am i going to make it right? how am i going to make it right?
with a palmful of stars i throw them like dice repeatedly repeatedly on the table
i throw them on the table until the desired constellation appears
how am i going to make it right? how am i going to make it right? how am i going to make it right? how am i going to make it right?
and you're asking you how am i going to make it right? how am i going to make it right?
repeatedly repeatedly you're asking yourself repeatedly
