But we make such nice jackets!

― Heather G, Wednesday, 30 March 2005 01:57 (twenty-one years ago)

I wore a coat today :(

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 02:09 (twenty-one years ago)

me too, what Toronto are you talkin about?

p.s. toronto music lovers, don't miss dead meadow at the horseshoe tomorrow... heavy riffs.

Wow, this sounds good:

I read the description of their music and my first thought was "this sounds just like the Warlocks" ... and sure enough, they toured together.

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 02:25 (twenty-one years ago)

Is that Celcius, sundar?

― Leeeter van den Hoogenband (Leee), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 02:26 (twenty-one years ago)

Yes. I did wear a sweater but I still felt warm. Wimps.

I may go to that tomorrow... I still owe MIR a CD or two. When does the show start?

― sundar subramanian (sundar), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 02:30 (twenty-one years ago)

yes, def. warlocks connection. you should come... i think it's $12 or so and they only come around about once a year. and i've never heard jennifer gentle, the band opening, but my roommate says they're rad.

― scout (scout), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 02:31 (twenty-one years ago)

Jennifer Gentle is a nice band name. I'm going to try to d/l some things by those bands.

― sundar subramanian (sundar), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 02:33 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah, it's twelve bucks ... I'm definitely going.

Show probably starts around 10?

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 02:36 (twenty-one years ago)

yeah, i'd aim for openers at 10, DM at 11... usual intended show time. say hi if you're there: short girl, brown bangs... ah i'm trying to not sound like i look like everyone.. um, piercing in my face... oh shit.

― scout (scout), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 02:38 (twenty-one years ago)

We look like this:

― sundar subramanian (sundar), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 02:49 (twenty-one years ago)

wow, that makes things much easier. ok, i will say hi then!

― scout (scout), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 03:03 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm the taller one.

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 03:09 (twenty-one years ago)

What's the nearest cross street to the Horseshoe?

― sundar subramanian (sundar), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 03:16 (twenty-one years ago)

Spadina and Queen West.

― Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 03:20 (twenty-one years ago)

We're still on for this, right? I'll remember the CDs, I swear.

― sundar subramanian (sundar), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 18:12 (twenty-one years ago)

I wore my jacket yesterday. But walking around Queen yesterday made me think about starting a similar thread. Only a bit more to do with the reemergence of cleav outdoors.

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 18:19 (twenty-one years ago)

I rode my bike last night to see my lady!

― BOATPEOPLEHATEFUCK (ex machina), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 18:52 (twenty-one years ago)

Hell yeah, it's on. I even made a detour this afternoon and bought a ticket.

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 20:15 (twenty-one years ago)

The Horseshoe is where I learned how much I dislike My Morning Jacket (2 years ago).

Get em to book someone decent during the SABR convention in August!

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 20:20 (twenty-one years ago)

What is a SABR and can we eat it?

I've got a hockey game otherwise I'd be there myself.

― Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Wednesday, 30 March 2005 20:32 (twenty-one years ago)

You have a hockey game tomorrow?

― Kim (Kim), Thursday, 31 March 2005 01:46 (twenty-one years ago)

Picastro are playing the Rivoli tonight. If I didn't have a large puck sized bruise on my thigh... :(

― Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Thursday, 31 March 2005 19:03 (twenty-one years ago)

Why do you all your excuses involve hockey?

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Thursday, 31 March 2005 19:09 (twenty-one years ago)

Cause soccer season hasn't started yet.

― Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Thursday, 31 March 2005 19:14 (twenty-one years ago)

Neither has hockey season.

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Thursday, 31 March 2005 19:15 (twenty-one years ago)

score Barry 1 NHL 0.

― Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Thursday, 31 March 2005 19:17 (twenty-one years ago)

I have seen the bruise. It is excuse worthy. Extra super bonus - it's making him walk funny.

― Kim (Kim), Friday, 1 April 2005 01:22 (twenty-one years ago)

Where exactly IS this bruise?

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Friday, 1 April 2005 02:00 (twenty-one years ago)

No wait, I don't want to think about that.

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Friday, 1 April 2005 02:00 (twenty-one years ago)

Aw, crap, too late.

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Friday, 1 April 2005 02:01 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm not sure how to respond to that you know.

― Kim (Kim), Friday, 1 April 2005 02:10 (twenty-one years ago)

With pics.

Please,

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Friday, 1 April 2005 03:51 (twenty-one years ago)

Only if I could find my rugby shorts.

― Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Friday, 1 April 2005 04:05 (twenty-one years ago)

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Friday, 1 April 2005 12:34 (twenty-one years ago)

Who needs coffee when you got my snug rugby shorts on your mind.

― Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Friday, 1 April 2005 13:17 (twenty-one years ago)

Is Sean, like, ok?

― Kim (Kim), Monday, 4 April 2005 19:28 (twenty-one years ago)

I wore a coat again today -- why??????

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Monday, 4 April 2005 22:33 (twenty-one years ago)

hey Spring, how's it going? Got a sec? I don't wanna seem unappreciative --- I mean I love the nice weather and your ability to get girls to show their legs, but, um, where the fuck am I supposed to put my cellphone?

― ()ops (()()ps), Monday, 4 April 2005 22:41 (twenty-one years ago)

Stuff one bra.

― Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Monday, 4 April 2005 22:47 (twenty-one years ago)

Hi ()ops,

Check out cell phone holders that clip to your belt. If you don't have a belt they can clip to your beltloop instead. Hope this helps!

Your friend,
Spring

― Spring (SeanC), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 00:09 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah, that weekend was a real letdown.

Had a chance to listen to the CDs yet, MindInRewind? No worries if you haven't; I still need to give your Kraftwerk a good listen. Maybe I'll do that now...

― sundar subramanian (sundar), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 00:24 (twenty-one years ago)

"snug rugby shorts" had zero hits on google. but an image search for plain old "rugby shorts" yeilded this gem of a page from the first result: members.aol.com/smsquaddie/ shorts/whiteshorts.htm

― Kim (Kim), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 00:39 (twenty-one years ago)

― Kim (Kim), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 00:44 (twenty-one years ago)

Have you been drinking, Kim?

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 00:46 (twenty-one years ago)

heh. no. but i'm kind of sick.

― Kim (Kim), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 00:48 (twenty-one years ago)

And twisted?

― the fucker that will burn you (sundar), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 00:49 (twenty-one years ago)

Hmm, the UK Autobahn tour is pretty great so far.

― the fucker that will burn you (sundar), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 00:52 (twenty-one years ago)

you imply that like i'm going to have a problem admitting it!

― Kim (Kim), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 00:52 (twenty-one years ago)

Well why aren't you?

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 01:42 (twenty-one years ago)

Drinking that is.

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 01:42 (twenty-one years ago)

Sundar, I've listened to head phone over tone, but not Building Castles Out of Matchsticks.

Anyhow, "Solar Sails" is excellent -- compared to their last album, they've cooled down them drones dang near absolute zero and stretched them out to near-infinite lengths. The Stars of the Lid comparisons write themselves.

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 02:05 (twenty-one years ago)

Hurrah for Head|Phone|Over|Tone!

What is up with Ambient Ping nights anyways?

― Mr Noodles (Mr Noodles), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 02:26 (twenty-one years ago)

Thanks Spring, but---here I go being unappreciative again---those phone clip things for belts are DOR-KY!
BTW, how is Autumn doing? Give her my best.

― ()ops (()()ps), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 04:32 (twenty-one years ago)

Don't tell me you're wearing coats today.

― the fucker that will burn you (sundar), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 15:58 (twenty-one years ago)

I wore a coat! I was looking ahead to the evening, when it's supposed to go down to about six.

Dumb.

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 16:49 (twenty-one years ago)

I haven't had a coatless day yet.
Pantless - now that's a different story!

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 17:00 (twenty-one years ago)

Wait for the next FAP!

― MindInRewind (Barry Bruner), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 17:16 (twenty-one years ago)

I wanted it to be a surprise!

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Tuesday, 5 April 2005 17:19 (twenty-one years ago)

fuck surprise. we want full nudity scheduling!

(i have an erasable calendar on my fridge)
