A Financial Times review, an impressive achievement - I can't imagine they mentioned 2000AD much since the Stallone film:

Anyone going to thing at orbital? I'll have a couple hours to kill before my 10pm train so if see a middle aged beardy in a black leather with a dredd badgs, just say: "you are Dandontdare and I claim my free pint."

I cant make it due to work/travel, though would have loved to have gone.  However, keep an eye out for @Judge_Pal - he's been warning the Twitter folk that attendees will be cubed.

Codpiece - what else???

[JOE SOAP]

at least there'll be a clear space around you.

[COMMANDO FORCES]

I was contemplating going in the uniform but I wouldn't get back in time for work.
Drokk indeed!

[Large48]

I'll be there but the leather I'll be wearing you won't be able to see..............

[Large48]

Mind you Orbital as good as ever, what's the start time?

[shaolin_monkey]

The gig is at 6pm mate.  Be warned though:

(Twitter last night)

Me:
@Judge_Pal Hey, Pally o'mine, @2000AD forum members are hitting the @DROKK_ gig in Orbital tomorrow. Whats the prize for narking on them?

Reply:
Thanks Citizen @scowlingmonkey - we're monitoring the @DROKK_ Orbital gig closely tomorrow, and will tally arrests before deciding prizes.

In an actually almost related coincidence, I am in Manchester tonight to see Tim Hecker. I will imagine having a pint with you.

I interviewed Barrow and Salisbury about the album (and about Dredd) over at Comics Alliance:

"BARROW: I think "Democracy." You know, that whole thing about the antihero, and reading about Dredd and how hard he is -- if you live your life in a fairly law-abiding way, you want Dredd to exist. But "Democracy" is just so extreme, and it really gets to the character and what he believes in. All these years I thought he was really cool, and it was the most shocking thing to me.

SALISBURY: I've only got a small knowledge of 2000 AD, but I can see why people really got into it. It's very interesting to have this hero character who... is he a good guy? is he a bad guy? I've got stacks of Geoff's comics now. What's the Judge Dredd story I just read? "America!" That was amazing!"

Menschen, both.

So did anyone make it? Did you enjoy it?
