The Tonight Show? Damn, not bad...

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 20 February 2003 15:56 (twenty-three years ago)

Warsaw is cool! But St. Patrick's Day . . . OH NO

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 20 February 2003 15:56 (twenty-three years ago)

I plan on launching a rock right at his testicles.

― Chris V. (Chris V), Thursday, 20 February 2003 15:59 (twenty-three years ago)

Dan will be right there with you.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 20 February 2003 16:04 (twenty-three years ago)

It will redeem him from making me spend $9 on his shitty album.

― Chris V. (Chris V), Thursday, 20 February 2003 16:12 (twenty-three years ago)

:-(

― Nicole (Nicole), Thursday, 20 February 2003 16:13 (twenty-three years ago)

There now, you've made Nicole sad.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 20 February 2003 16:20 (twenty-three years ago)

I like his album but he's a fairly hopeless live performer.

― Ed (dali), Thursday, 20 February 2003 16:21 (twenty-three years ago)

Good, then I can feel smug for missing it all.

― Nicole (Nicole), Thursday, 20 February 2003 16:22 (twenty-three years ago)

for starters, on top of the pops he forgot the words to Don't mug yourself because he didn't have his teleprompter.

― Ed (dali), Thursday, 20 February 2003 16:24 (twenty-three years ago)

I actually just listened to the second half (well from track 7 onwards) of the album for the very first time an hour ago, and am still listening to it. I like it much better now, overall. Hm. I guess I just got hung up on how much I disliked tracks 1, 2 and 5 and 6 before to not progres any further. Shame.

― Vic (Vic), Thursday, 20 February 2003 16:32 (twenty-three years ago)

I thought he was pretty decent live.

― Tim (Tim), Thursday, 20 February 2003 16:35 (twenty-three years ago)

Ed you can evaluate Skinner live based on Top Of The Pops (when was the last time ANYONE was actually good on this show? oh yeh, Fischerspooner!) or you can judge him on the pretty dam good show he put on at the Astoria back in December

― stevem (blueski), Thursday, 20 February 2003 16:44 (twenty-three years ago)

Or you can judge him on the vaguely ferret-like aura he exudes.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 20 February 2003 16:45 (twenty-three years ago)

Cor! I didn't think you liked him that much, Dang.

― Tim (Tim), Thursday, 20 February 2003 16:46 (twenty-three years ago)

He must have been off at the sheffield show then.

― Ed (dali), Thursday, 20 February 2003 16:48 (twenty-three years ago)

haha, Skinner IS ferrety for sure - and i love the idea of ferret auras

― stevem (blueski), Thursday, 20 February 2003 17:10 (twenty-three years ago)

zzz unless gareth wants to go

― Mary (Mary), Thursday, 20 February 2003 18:08 (twenty-three years ago)

The hell...no DC date? BOYCOTT!

― j.lu (j.lu), Thursday, 20 February 2003 18:16 (twenty-three years ago)

oh mike skinner, your scrawny girl arms and bad haircut make my heart skip a beat

― jess (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 20 February 2003 18:18 (twenty-three years ago)

I had a great time at his last L.A. show and will gladly see him again at the El Rey. FAP? it's on.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Thursday, 20 February 2003 18:24 (twenty-three years ago)

What's the UK equivalent of Supercuts anyway?

― mark p (Mark P), Thursday, 20 February 2003 18:24 (twenty-three years ago)

Supercuts UK

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 20 February 2003 18:30 (twenty-three years ago)

EuroCuts

― jess (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 20 February 2003 18:32 (twenty-three years ago)

FAP? it's on.

Sooner than that. Check for the thread later today...

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 20 February 2003 18:33 (twenty-three years ago)

"Free handbag with wash, cut + blow!"

― mark p (Mark P), Thursday, 20 February 2003 18:33 (twenty-three years ago)

(Sigh. Dan to thread.)

― mark p (Mark P), Thursday, 20 February 2003 18:33 (twenty-three years ago)

does anyone else wanna do seattle?

― jess (dubplatestyle), Thursday, 20 February 2003 18:34 (twenty-three years ago)

(Sigh. Dan to thread.)

― mark p (Mark P), Thursday, 20 February 2003 18:35 (twenty-three years ago)

from the Warsaw crowd i am predicting a fiendish disconnect and/or cutesy condescension; i would love to see him smash this up goodstyle

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Thursday, 20 February 2003 18:40 (twenty-three years ago)

jess, I've only heard a song or two, but I'll do it if it's not a Monday or Wednesday (band practice, ya see)

― donut bitch (donut), Thursday, 20 February 2003 18:41 (twenty-three years ago)

not old enuff to FAP but ill probably be at the SF one.

― Honda (Honda), Thursday, 20 February 2003 19:16 (twenty-three years ago)

I was well impressed in Amsterdam.

― stevo (stevo), Thursday, 20 February 2003 19:29 (twenty-three years ago)

I did hear there's some right good food at Warsaw though, true or false?

― Mary (Mary), Thursday, 20 February 2003 19:49 (twenty-three years ago)

The Streets are worth seeing live just for the big screen videos that accompany the tracks i.m.o. - more interesting than a mockney ferret goofing around on stage even

― stevem (blueski), Thursday, 20 February 2003 20:29 (twenty-three years ago)

saw no VDOs at Mercury Lounge, maybe the venue was too small? yes, Mary, Warsaw has big fat polish sausages and pierogis for next to nothing and booths to eat at too!

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Thursday, 20 February 2003 20:34 (twenty-three years ago)

seven months pass...

Revive -- Anyone in SF going tonight to the Fillmore? I'll be wearing a brown leather jacket, suede wallabees, FAP'd.

― Colin Saunders (csaunders), Monday, 6 October 2003 20:23 (twenty-two years ago)

i saw them last night at the Wiltern. Eh, whatever...

― Elvis Telecom (Chris Barrus), Monday, 6 October 2003 20:43 (twenty-two years ago)

Was thinking about it, Colin, but I don't think I can afford it.

― adaml (adaml), Monday, 6 October 2003 21:02 (twenty-two years ago)

Lots of people are dumping tickets-- you could probably pick one up cheap at the show.

― Colin Saunders (csaunders), Monday, 6 October 2003 21:10 (twenty-two years ago)

I really enjoyed the L.A. Troubadour show a while back!

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Monday, 6 October 2003 21:45 (twenty-two years ago)

on craigslist, w4m: You love The Streets and want to go to the concert - 26

― Colin Saunders (csaunders), Monday, 6 October 2003 21:51 (twenty-two years ago)

wow, 3 shows in the usa on just the one album?

streets : uk :: interpol : usa

his first show was at the justice league (RIP - club a few blocks from my place) and i happen to wander by at soundcheck on my way to the grocer 2 doors down... it was the first time i'd heard the music and i was suprised at how mild it sounded considering how bonkers ILM was about him at the time (it was about about a year plus ago).

― gygax! (gygax!), Monday, 6 October 2003 21:52 (twenty-two years ago)

Colin, did you send her your picture???!!!
