Ok, I've been looking round the various video streaming sites, it seems the best is hillariously called "daily motion". But anyway it gives me an excuse to give you all a seizure watching my hillarious past. You'll need a fastish connection though, let me know if it doesn't work!

🙂 The seizure is from all the flashing lights. I love the music...
I took a quick tour around the timeshard website... you guys may sound like prog-trance but you look like Gong from the Flying Teapot/Pothead Pixies era.

No need to be ashamed, 'ts great!
A modern video of this kind would have more "ravin people that go totally wild"-scenes and less flash motion, but the rest is quite fresh.
Now who of these gentlemen may you be?

And don't fool on me with something like "The one with the long hair and the weird eyes" 😀

I'm the one that goes all kaleidascopic in the middle. headphones on. Erm, I'm playing a Korg monopoly, if that helps ? yes, very difficult to pick anyone out. We were given the raw footage in 1 second chunks so we just slammed it all together and put every effect possible on it. It's evocative of the state of mind of most people there anyway!
The TimeShard site really needs a rebuild as it barely works, but the I think anyone making Gong parallels will be even more horrified by this gallery. I am the one with the electric sitar!!!! Chortle 🙂

Well, that sitar thing looks cool! 🙂

I remember Timeshard ... you were on one or two of those Trance Europe Express comps weren't you?
I can't say I remember exactly what you sounded like though ... 😀

Hey rl, I seem to recall you're one of the seniors from this forum...
@angstrom... that's the gallery that made me think of them...

I stopped touring in 1999, the last gig being Glastonbury. I got a bit sick of it. When someone offered me a ridiculous amount of money to do a band website (for Atomic Kitten if anyone remembers them) I compared that with the pitiful life of vans, promoters and autobahns and decided to go bald a good distance away from 100k PAs 🙂

Did you and Gobber take turns having beards? Makes it hard to tell who's who.
...they were compared to Vangelis, Motorhead, Brian Eno, Throbbing Gristle, the Radiophonic Workshop and Kraftwerk, among others.
I've never heard of anyone being compared with Motorhead AND Vangelis. I heard Tangerine Dream with an updated rhythm.

Thats awesome Angstrom! reminds me a bit of the Legendary Pink Dots' (gods amoung men) style. Thanks for sharing. Here's my gig: http://www.voltagekontrol.com.
