No Age had the customary floor of PC effects (shudder to think what '76 punk bands would have done with that!), the Oxford Collapse bassist didn't even have one effects pedal. OC is performance of MFNW so far. On another note, typical balls up over entry/exit at the Wonder Ballroom - they blamed it on "a single man" (T Solomon, I presume). I won't bore people with it here, but don't leave if you want to be sure to get back in at any venue.
