The Alarm play The Gathering #14 in Llandudno

(neil crud) I filmed these videos and spent six weeks editing them for The Alarm, as Mike Peters wanted something with a bit of edge; a bit more than just a live video.

Unfortunately, after all the editing, the video company I worked for (I say worked, I wasn’t paid!), took the masters and slapped together a very average live dvd over one weekend. Pity really as the original edits I did had that ‘bit of edge’ Mike was looking for. Thankfully, I have the edits I did, even if they never made it to the DVD – plus the video company didn’t have to pay me if my editing work wasn’t used, although the camera work was used. I also would have happily done it all for free just for the love of music, just a shame someone else got paid for everyone else’s work. That’s the way of the world I guess..
