Back in Time Live Brighton
Anyone going to this?
http://www.backintimelive.com Sometime in early September. Looks like loads of commodore fun, plus some classic SID artists I've booked my ticket, so let me know if you need a lift from up Sheffield way down to Brighton, as I will be offering lifts! |

no sweat dudes! as i say, i've ordered my tickets already and it looks like it will be a blast! i'm not sure of my plans yet, but i'll probably stay over in a hotel / b&b for the Saturday night before driving back. May go down the day before too, since they're organising a footy match and drinking retro chat session in a pub on the Friday night too.
might i suggest an EAB meetup there! |

If you want to see what the last "Back in Time Live" was like then check out Cody's FTP. I've uploaded an mpg taken from a local tv news report (Midlands Today) about it. It's worth a look if you don't know what Back in time is all about. The news report also features a small interview with C64 legend Kenz.
It also features interviews with SID maestro's Ben Dalglish and David Whittaker. I wish I could have been there. |

BTW, the man too see there is Jeff Minter and his amazing VLM show. This is one of the most amazing things you can see. Total psychedelia. You can also ask him about his new project, Unity. I wish I could meet the guy again ! |

His tunes are enjoyable and in no way BAD tunes, they ARE good, but I think most of the worshipping going around of Hubbard is because of pure nostalgia. I took a listen to many things he did outside of the Comomdore 64, and they were just APPALING. Chris Huelsbeck is, IMO, a MUCH more talented man. So is Jeroen Tel. The coders like to give Hubbard much credit because he wrote his own music routine. So did others. And Tim Foillin, who is an ARSE because he dissed the scene, still is a brillianr music. Most people say he's shite because he didn't wrote the musicroutine. FFS, he's a muso, he's not supposed to code if he doesn't want to! I'm not mentioning current C64 musicians, since they go through the path these masters carved for them. There are a lot of current C64 musucians that are incredible. And that's all I have to say about Rob Hubbard |

I don't think he contributed anything to the C64, at least not as much as to be a "legend". |

Probably legendary C64 geek would be more descriptive.

Anyway. Rob Hubbard is a pioneer. He gets a lot of praise for what he did, and deservedly so. |
