LET'S DO IT.

yeah scottish football prediction FAP (I promise I will buy treefell that pint I have been promising him all season)!

I was wondering if it would be a good idea to come through for one of the euro2008 games this month?
It's easiest for me to do a Saturday or Sunday but I suppose a Friday after work is possible too.
Unfortunately with me living in Fife I need to get the 10pm train from Queen Street to be sure of catching the last train back home (9.30pm on a Sunday!).
― treefell, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 10:53 (sixteen years ago) link
i'd certainly be up for that. onimo's off the internet at the moment, but i'll find out when i'm next speaking to him if he's not back by then.
― ailsa, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:47 (sixteen years ago) link
weekend might be better so we can involve non-football types at some point rather than gawping at a telly all night...
― ailsa, Wednesday, 4 June 2008 12:52 (sixteen years ago) link
er, yeh.

Hi Cathy. Real life people on the internets, shocking!
Krakow was amazing by the way.
― krakow, Friday, 6 June 2008 09:15 (sixteen years ago) link
i want to try glasgow in the summer.
― ken c, Friday, 6 June 2008 09:21 (sixteen years ago) link
GOOD LAD. bring a nice jacket for me :)
(actually: that was edinburgh, wasn't it? even so.)
― grimly fiendish, Friday, 6 June 2008 09:29 (sixteen years ago) link
ken c, you must try glasgow ASAP. it has been far too long.
krakow, I'm glad you liked krakow. perhaps if you hadn't it would've triggered some terrible identity crisis. I have never been but people always tell me how nice it is (followed by "don't go to warsaw it's rubbish".
― Cathy, Friday, 6 June 2008 09:42 (sixteen years ago) link
Yeah, I heard that latter Warsaw sentiment a couple of times while I was over there too.
― krakow, Friday, 6 June 2008 09:54 (sixteen years ago) link
maybe they meant walsall.
glasgow will be tried. hopefully will actually get to FAP with some of you this time too ;) ;)
― ken c, Friday, 6 June 2008 09:58 (sixteen years ago) link
It would be great to see you, Ken. It was great to see Impudent Harlot. I hope Optimo was good.
― Madchen, Friday, 6 June 2008 13:26 (sixteen years ago) link
Hello people, some of us are going to see My Bloody Valentine on the 3rd of July, there might even be some out-of-towners around. Shall we go to the pub?
― ailsa, Monday, 23 June 2008 07:26 (sixteen years ago) link
oh, sound, are you going on the 3rd? i thought you were one of the kool kids who'd bought their tickets quickly and were going to the first night.
anyway, yeh, i suggested this on the MBV thread too, and it's a good idea.
― grimly fiendish, Monday, 23 June 2008 09:06 (sixteen years ago) link
Monkeys will be knocking around Glasgow for that whole entire weekend, if peeps want to do anything.
― accentmonkey, Monday, 23 June 2008 10:49 (sixteen years ago) link
yes!
― grimly fiendish, Monday, 23 June 2008 11:45 (sixteen years ago) link
Well, Ailsa and Madchen both have my number, and I will hopefully see you on the Thursday night, so we can make some kind of ear-soothing plan for later in the weekend. Hooray!
― accentmonkey, Monday, 23 June 2008 12:00 (sixteen years ago) link
Excellent. I already have permanent tinnitus, so won't be going to MBV, but a MonkeyFAP would be great.
― Madchen, Monday, 23 June 2008 13:05 (sixteen years ago) link
i can't post it on the appropriate thread without ruining the flow, but ailsa: i was hoping you'd do exactly that with the "post in the style of the poster above you thing". perfect :)
― grimly fiendish, Monday, 23 June 2008 16:15 (sixteen years ago) link
it was too good an opportunity to miss!

When did you move to Shotts?
― Alba, Saturday, 28 June 2008 12:30 (sixteen years ago) link
we had that in the diary a week ago :p
― grimly fiendish, Saturday, 28 June 2008 17:02 (sixteen years ago) link
Right, peeps, can we get some drinking plans organised for Thursday if we're going to. I should be around from 5-ish. My vote = NOT MONO (will be heaving pre-gig, would have thought)
― ailsa, Monday, 30 June 2008 20:55 (sixteen years ago) link
You will be heaving pre-gig! Nice one! I have a cold and my ears are a bit blocked up so I might not be able to hear anything but nonetheless I will probably be going on Wednesday, so I guess will miss you lot.
― Keith, Monday, 30 June 2008 21:02 (sixteen years ago) link
bah, that's not what I meant and you know it :-)
I suspect you will still be able to hear them even with blocked ears. Anyone know about the support yet for Thursday, you Wednesday mob are getting the Pastels apparently.
― ailsa, Monday, 30 June 2008 21:20 (sixteen years ago) link
though the beer in Mono is quite like to make me heave, bleurgh.
just name a place and i shall be there!
― grimly fiendish, Monday, 30 June 2008 21:54 (sixteen years ago) link
(i need to hook up with three other dudes too, so make sure it's not a totally obscure and impossible-to-find place. i can't think of anywhere better than mono, but hey.)
― grimly fiendish, Monday, 30 June 2008 21:55 (sixteen years ago) link
The Pastels! Fucking superb! What time do they end?
― Keith, Monday, 30 June 2008 22:47 (sixteen years ago) link
The Pastels never end.
― jed_, Monday, 30 June 2008 22:58 (sixteen years ago) link
Yeah you might be right there. Well as long as they're carrying on somewhere I'm not.
― Keith, Monday, 30 June 2008 22:59 (sixteen years ago) link
hey, it never occurred to me to post here!
anyone need two standing tickets for mbv at barrowlands on thursday?
i can't go anymore, i'm in london but can next-day-deliver - at my expense - if you can stump up face value (22.50 each) or thereabouts.
i just don't want them to be wasted, especially since i saw mbv at the roundhouse last week and am still reeling with the wonder of it :-(
― CharlieNo4, Tuesday, 1 July 2008 09:59 (sixteen years ago) link
OK, so what is the plan for tomorrow? I'm not going to the gig, but wouldn't mind a drink after work.
― Madchen, Wednesday, 2 July 2008 16:32 (sixteen years ago) link
http://www.mybloodyvalentine.net/smf/index.php?topic=655.60 seems to be good for finding out who is support
― Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 2 July 2008 16:33 (sixteen years ago) link
oh no it's le volume courbe on thursday. I'm coming in late then.
― Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 2 July 2008 17:18 (sixteen years ago) link
I believe there are tentative plans afoot for The Red Lizard on the corner of Bell Street and Albion Street at after-work o'clock.
― ailsa, Wednesday, 2 July 2008 17:48 (sixteen years ago) link
Last EVER NPL on the 25th this month!
― JohnFoxxsJuno, Wednesday, 2 July 2008 20:22 (sixteen years ago) link
WAHT?
― ailsa, Wednesday, 2 July 2008 20:25 (sixteen years ago) link
finally
― czn, Wednesday, 2 July 2008 20:31 (sixteen years ago) link
I haven't been for about three years and I can't say I've missed it tbh. I'm just not the kind of gal who wells up whenever I hear Almost Prayed.
― Madchen, Thursday, 3 July 2008 08:29 (sixteen years ago) link
I will be at the Red Lizard though!
red lizard? i'll be there. won't be much before 7, mind. this not-working-full-time lark seems to make enormous demands on my time!
― grimly fiendish, Thursday, 3 July 2008 10:52 (sixteen years ago) link
I haven't been to NPL for ages, but it's nice to know its there for all your Altered Images and Mark E Smith needs, if you have such things. Perhaps we're all too old now. I shall be red and lizardy though (this plan is subject to minor fluctuation depending on seating and eating requirements, but we won't be far away and most glasgow peeps have my mobile no and its on my facebook page if you don't and you can't find us and you're my friend)
― ailsa, Thursday, 3 July 2008 11:01 (sixteen years ago) link
heheheh. text us if you've moved on somewhere and i haven't turned up!
― grimly fiendish, Thursday, 3 July 2008 11:02 (sixteen years ago) link
that was tremendous. low ceilinged venues are where it's at, if you want to channel noise into your brain. the pastels sweet blends were pretty great too.
― schlump, Thursday, 3 July 2008 12:05 (sixteen years ago) link
i am psyched to fuck about this.
― grimly fiendish, Thursday, 3 July 2008 12:07 (sixteen years ago) link
wtf
― conrad, Thursday, 3 July 2008 12:39 (sixteen years ago) link
Really? Oh, I thought you were talkign about the final NPL.
My left ear feels kind of bruised and I can't hear properly. I don't know if this was the volume or sticking the earplug too far into my lughole.
