try glasgow more

Thanks krakow, both for the tickets and the Remember Remember tip-off (it's not a festival if a couple of random members of Belle and Sebastian don't turn up on stage somewhere). Had a top night, bumped into a zillion people I know and haven't seen for years (not one of them had paid!), and am now dying of hangover.

I can't see it ever happening again due to a presumed enormous loss, but hey, it was like a wee ATP in the city (the one-out-one-in massive queue for Jeffrey Lewis was the clincher for ATP comparisons), and for that, it has to be praised for effort, if not for execution.

Did you see Jeffrey Lewis then? I thought it would be uber-busy so didn't even try. His new album is awesome though.

I didn't, no, by the time we got up there, it was mad busy, so we didn't bother hanging around.

How about the Sublime Frequencies event at Stereo on Friday - anyone else going to be there? Promises to be quite special.

sounds cool, but i am way skint unfortunately.

Maybe see if the dentist will give you any money under the counter for some of your teeth, might be a market for that kind of thing?

No word of a lie my dentist once said to me "if i had teeth like yours i'd be living in a bigger house" (I know it makes no sense) perhaps that is what he was getting at all along.

saving my money for aeroplane at stereo next week.

Can't wait for Sublime Frequencies gig. Really psyched about this.
Also, Pocahaunted at Arc Studios, of all places, on June 15. Smashing!

if one of you can get a venue to put on the Red Bull Dozers i think it'll make a good premise for a FAP

hi guys,

need some help.

is there any way one can get from glasgow (paisley in particular) on a sunday morning to brighton in time for early/late afternoon???? is preswick the only airport? why is it halfway down england??

Paisley's right next to Glasgow airport... Does that help?

maybe!! i'm going to check this out

thank you keith! £40 easyjet one way. sorted.

Kenneth, does this mean you are attending The Wedding? Whoo! Do you have somewhere to stay already, because we will be there, and we live right next to Glasgow Airport and have a sofabed/sofas for crashing on if necessary.

ailsa that will be amazing actually - i am catching the plane that goes away at 7am the next morning though would that be a problem????

Not really, no, we'll sort you out with taxi numbers and that, it'll be fine. Just come back to ours after the wedding and we'll take it from there. Absolutely no problem at all.

thanks ailsa that's great see you v soon!

can anyone tell me who "sarah bash" was? it's definitely a glasgow/west of scotland thing, i think, that people called sarah a generation or two ago were nicknamed "sarah bash" but i can't find the origin of it.

Anything to do with this lady?

Glasgow: Less grey than it's said to be

I kept hoping I'd see RJG and Ally C.

haha, me too.

the most amazing thing on the internet!

it's like Hongroe without the autotune

At least the internet can see where that blonde piece lives.

It's gone. :/

yeah :(

Did someone upset Luca on the YT comments?

I didn't quite understand the blonde girl's place in the whole thing. Did Luca just spy on her over the road? Or were they friends from the start?

Actually, there were two blonde girls, weren't there? Anyway, the one who lived opposite.

OK, I didn't watch this. I had a very, very quick look and went "meh, OK, some kind of in-joke or something". Can someone explain what I missed, taking care to distort and exaggerate as much as possible? Ta muchly.

thank christ this is gone. i watched it 20 times yesterday and it woke up with it playing in my head. i spent all of today with it stuck there, i thought i was going crazy.

You missed our hero coming over from Milan on Ryanair, finding out that Glasgow occasionally has a bit of blue sky, visiting two people he barely knew who lived on Clouston St, meeting their blonde pal who sings songs, eating cake, smiling a bit, then in the super feel-good finish, coming to live here. On - yes! - Clouston St. best video yet made.

you missed out the bit where he includes lots of shots of the outside of the blonde pal's house.

(who was in my friend's son's year at school!)

more info plz

It's gone? Never mind, I still have it on the brain. Catchy as crabs, that tune.

hi guys im looking for either ailsa or ally's number (or yours!) is it at all possible to text me on 07852 three 07610? i have um, misplaced a wedding invite and have no idea where to go for the evening....

Clouston Street!

(Will text number)

Thanks Alba, facilitator of social networking!

What's on fire, Glasgow? There's a rather inconvenient house in the way not letting me see where all the smoke is coming from across the river from my house.

all sorted cheers guys! waiting for plane now xx

What is on fire is the same scrapyard that was on fire before. It's this side of the river, and was causing delays to flights because it was blowing smoke all over the flightpath to Glasgow Airport, but Ken will be delighted to know it's calmed down a bit now.

So, tomorrow I will be at the 13th Note's "Rumble In The Jumble" event in the afternoon from 12pm onwards showing off and selling prints in my Crimson Glow Photography guise.

There's lots of other arty/crafty/bric-a-brac stalls, cocktails, food, board games, DJs and then bands in the evening. Free entry, of course.

If anyone fancies it, then please do come along for a browse, maybe even buy something, and at the very least say hi!

clouston street is back!
