Carpet, Jacobi @ Imp, Colwyn Bay
Dominic of Jacobi‘s only recollection of this gig was that ‘Carpet were phenomenal.’
Get Off The Internet Festival @ Hendre Hall, Bangor
Bands played Carpet, Lantern, Junebug, Jacobi, Entity, Skunkfish, Deus Ex Incendia, Bastard Map

Dominic Tanner of Jacobi (pic above) says, ‘This was originally GET OFF THE INTERNET festival, with 80′s Matchbox, Frank Turner, Lightspeed Champion, ThisGirl etc but the fact it was in Wales basically cemented it’s own death. so we cancelled it, gave it to Gary Skunkfish to sort out and just kept it as a load of local bands. Great bastard fun.’

Mundane, Fathead, Carpet, Homespun @ The Stand, Rhyl
The scene was just beginning to spark into life in Rhyl, and Dean Roberts began putting on gigs at the old club bolted onto the side of The Hotel Marina on the promenade in Rhyl.
Carpet and Homespun were fledgling bands at the time and would stick around for the best part of the next decade. Mundane were from Denbigh and didn’t last long. Neither did Fathead, but the band did springboard Ben Jackson who formed Fudged and Jamie Cardno who continues to appear in various bands.
