We missed most of the support (in fact we were only aware of It Hugs Back, not the others who I can't recall right now), but caught maybe the last 15 mins of It Hugs Back, who were cool in the interesting, quirky noise making kinda way towards the end.
The gig was in Academy 3 and was from what I can tell, no where near sold out (there's a lot of people who need educating to the ways of Holy Fuck), as there was loads of room to stand/drink/dance, in fact we walked up the right hand side and stood right at the front (well I did), bar a few under-age looking nerdy types who were literally touching the front of the stage from way before Holy Fuck came on.
Obviously once Holy Fuck came on stage at around half nine, it really got going, I'm not going to pretend I can remember the whole set list... I definitely remember Super Inuit, Lovely Allen, The Pulse and Milkshake but to be honest it was just a blur of good music, the weird tape scratching had to be seen to be believed.
This gig was also the first chance we'd had to try out Ant's Cybershot I'd bought him for Christmas, and I have to say it performs brilliantly under low light conditions.. not much else to say, amazing gig with the band giving it their all, it was also broadcast live over t'net via U-stream like quite a few gigs from this tour have.
gonna sign off with a couple of gig photos more of which can be found here
