At the Drive-In. London, England. 2000.

At the Drive-In. First London show. I recorded this at the Monarch (aka Barfly) in Chalk Farm, London in 2000.
They were on fire this night, plus it's always great to see a band in an 80 capacity room before they become massive.
I only ever saw them on one other occasion which was at the Camden Underworld a couple of months after this one. They seemed pretentious at that second show, asking people to not dance etc, which put me right off them. Anyway, enjoy.
Setlist:
Pickpocket (00:50)
Chanbara (04:00)
Pattern Against User (07:50)
Rascuache (11:20)

7:07 jim plays air by sparta

[@ratatgp3926]

not surprising considering that some songs on Sparta's first record was supposed to be on the next ATDI record after ROC

[@dpclerks09]

It's the exact same progression as Pattern Against User, which they jump right into, using this as an intro.
