My Music, My Jukebox: Ash

I was studying in Uppsala, Sweden, back in 2002. Seeing Ash at Göta Källare in Stockholm was a must. I was all prepared: tickets, my friend, my camera with an empty roll of film... So, when the gig started I was all ready. But suddenly my Ixus died. It didn't work, it just was n_o_t working. So I've got only a handful of photos from that gig which pretty much sucks.

But, later we got to meet the band. And had some drinks. And I guess that the, um, after-party was at Gondolen. But any way, I had so much fun.

I chose here two songs from my favorite Irish band (and, yeah, I know U2 is also local): Petrol (released as the second single from their 1994 album Trailer) and Oh Yeah (taken from their album 1977 released in 1996).

I've got quite a collection...

Mark Hamilton (bass, synthesizer)

Tim Wheeler (lead vocals, lead guitar, keyboards)

I had the setlist framed

"I sometimes wish it was that summer again

I still see her in my sleep

And hear the sighing of the summer wind

Still I don't regret one thing"

Ash: Oh Yeah
