Saw him at the Kentish Town Forum, back in the early 90's.
We'd jumped into The Bull and Gate for a couple of cheeky pints, beforehand, and wondered who the vaguely familiar, dishevelled dude playing pool was. Standing next to him at the bar it soon clicked who he actually was. Our thoughts on the night ahead were ones of "This is gonna suck. He's utterly wasted." He could hardly stand when he came on stage, but once he started, all memories of the man in the pub went out of the window.

The B3ta London Bash 1st magical online/offline Art Auction
At tonight's London B3ta Bash we'll be holding an auction of b3ta related artwork with all proceeds going to the Cat Survival Trust and our beloved Nina's upkeep. To open it up and make sure anyone who couldn't make it gets a chance of joining the fun we'll be taking bids via gaz today up until 4pm.
So if you can't be there, and want a piece of the auction action, submit your best bid to riverghost and an independent bidder will take your place at the auction itself.
Usual Auction rules apply, we'll start low and you only pay what you you need to (not straight in at the best bid) and obviously if you're outbid by another b3tan you don't win, nor does it cost you anything.
But if you want to throw money at the Cat Survival Trust anyway, do feel free to do so ;)
Current vague list of artwork available to bid on: (hopefully we'll get more art shown here as the day progresses) An Andrew McDavies drawing of your design from Thorsonofodin Some amazing watercolours by TTO A brilliant picture of Sherlock Holmes by dotmund A Sequential Art character of your choice by Mr Jolly Jack! A frightening picture of Thatcher by k3b/-\b A picture of YOU being mauled by Nina drawn by HappyToast The A5 line art of HappyToast's Gil Scott-Heron portrait A mystery HappyToast drawing that will no doubt involve stumpy people with their willies out Blackadder/Disctionary/Sausage! original A4 line art by HappyToast A smashing print from claptonista A carrot painting by Rev.Jesse Something from FannyCraddock An amazing venetian mask made by Clay A zombie Photomanipulation of YOU by Rev.Jesse
Hopefully more stuff will be announced as the day progresses - We're open to more contributions, feel free to list what you can provide in a reply below and I'll update the main list.
As for bidding just gaz riverghost with the following info: Your name, the scribble you want to bid on, your maximum bid
YOU HAVE UNTIL 4PM TO BID
Job done, winnners to be announce tomorrow at a guess as people may be too drunk to type it all up this evening ;)

You won't be able to get into the function room before 5pm as all the raffle stuff will be locked in there. Prizes for the raffle include frames wildcat prints, CST goodies, the wonderful people at my local offie have donated a ten year old bottle of posh wine.
