When Yo la Tengo played our song

 

The Anvil Basingstoke

Back in 2004 we got contacted by James from YLT asking us if we wanted to trade records which we did. At that time we hadn't heard of them but our daughter Bea had. Then they asked if we wanted to come to a gig and meet up. This took a while to arrange but in the end we went to the Anvil in Basingstoke to meet up. We took two of our children with us. Later that evening during their encore they played a cover of our Evil Going On single which like 10 people bought back in 81. We were flabbergasted. It was so good.  memories are made of this.
