It was alright. Fear Of Music were good, and Snowfight in the city centre were alright.
There's pictures here.
Snowfight were playing at The Music Box afterwards. I went down to there to watch The Answering Machine and The Maple State - each of whom were impressive.
In fact, The Music Box proberly had more attendees than BBC Blast...
