Interesting that someone above mentions ?-Ziq, as it was chatting to Mike Paradinas that got me into Orbital’s dressing room.
I know that witnessing the birth of your first child is meant to be the zenith of good experiences, and the most euphoric you’ll ever feel, but I have to, perhaps shamefully, admit that the happiest I’ve ever felt, in all my 35 years, was during an immense rush whilst watching Orbital at The Point in Dublin in 2000. Sweet Jebus, that was good. It wasn’t even one of the classics, but it very nearly took my head clean off.
Admittedly, I now have to take a prescribed serotonin-balancing tablet every day, for most likely the rest of my life, but for that experience alone it’s probably worth it.
