On this day, 16 May 2004, rock band Supergrass played Cardiff University on their Supergrass is 10 tour.

In June 2004 the band released a singles compilation Supergrass Is 10, spawning two new self-produced tracks: "Kiss of Life" and "Bullet". The companion DVD contained 'Home Movie', a humorous documentary charting the band's first 10 years' achievements, made in collaboration with "Seen the Light" video director Simon Hilton.
