day 06 – a song that reminds of you of somewhere
A song that reminds me of sitting at the top of Dun na Cuaiche in Inveraray, at 5 in the morning with a stack of lager and a half-built tent, looking out over the Loch Fyne and watching the sun come up. It was with my mate Kris Boyle and some guy we’d met at the pub that night who decided to come camping with us as it was better than going home at chucking out time. Our music for that night was this Motorhead cover (on the b-side of the Sepultura “Under Siege” cassette single), a C90 tape compilation with Sacred Reich, Metallica and Suicidal Tendencies, plus a Mr. Bungle demo I had just got via post from America, all played on an old ghetto blaster (which was really heavy to carry all the way up there).
