Hello.

My band will be playing in London, on Friday 2nd September, at The Buffalo Bar in Islington.

We are called Dot to Dot and you can find us here www.jointhedots.tk.

It would be lovely to see you there.

― Ally C (Ally C), Monday, 8 August 2005 14:12 (twenty years ago)

I look forward to it.

Funnily enough, I just received a promo CD from a grizzly US band called "Dr Dog". Maybe they could support you.

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Monday, 8 August 2005 14:15 (twenty years ago)

FAGs, definitely

― ken c (ken c), Monday, 8 August 2005 14:18 (twenty years ago)

see you there!

― ken c (ken c), Monday, 8 August 2005 14:19 (twenty years ago)

Dr. Dog!!

― Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Monday, 8 August 2005 14:21 (twenty years ago)

Is the Buffalo Bar the one under The Famous Cock?

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Monday, 8 August 2005 14:23 (twenty years ago)

I think so.

Dr. Dog as in "Ten quid alright?" Dr. Dog?!! If so, I want them.

― Ally C (Ally C), Monday, 8 August 2005 14:31 (twenty years ago)

how is this dr. dog? judging by the name I'd assume they are amazing.

anyway.

everyone have fun at the show!

Is the Buffalo Bar the one under The Famous Cock?

Soon to be re-named The Famous Cook.

Dr Dog, yesterday.

Cook, and the dots, at the Cock. Cor!

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Monday, 8 August 2005 14:39 (twenty years ago)

doctor cock

Will Dot to Dot all be in alice band(s)?

― Mooro (Mooro), Monday, 8 August 2005 14:42 (twenty years ago)

no, but we're trying to get the bassist to wear spandex!

― dahlin (dahlin), Monday, 8 August 2005 14:47 (twenty years ago)

I think dot to dot should dress in all black with glow in the dark GLOVES. You will really wow the crowd!

― gunther heartymeal (keckles), Monday, 8 August 2005 14:51 (twenty years ago)

I have my SKELETON GLOVES!

― Ally C (Ally C), Monday, 8 August 2005 14:52 (twenty years ago)

Do they glow in the dark? All the ligths are going to have to be off too. But I'm sure it'll be WORTH IT!

― gunther heartymeal (keckles), Monday, 8 August 2005 14:54 (twenty years ago)

but then patrick won't be able to see the lil sticker on his harmonica that shows him which side is up! he'll be lost without the sticker.

― dahlin (dahlin), Monday, 8 August 2005 14:55 (twenty years ago)

I've got the photos, they've got the moves...

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 8 August 2005 14:56 (twenty years ago)

You can get glow in the dark stickers

― Mooro (Mooro), Monday, 8 August 2005 14:57 (twenty years ago)

OH! I guess the idea isn't going to work. I just wanted London to see a band consisting of JUST HANDS.

― gunther heartymeal (keckles), Monday, 8 August 2005 14:58 (twenty years ago)

I think I would need a glow in the dark guitar, too.

Kelly, this is a GREAT IDEA. But a TERRIBLE IDEA.

― Ally C (Ally C), Monday, 8 August 2005 15:02 (twenty years ago)

I know! Thanks! I think it should be my new specialty. Great/terrible ideas.

― gunther heartymeal (keckles), Monday, 8 August 2005 15:04 (twenty years ago)

they come hand in hand

― ken c (ken c), Monday, 8 August 2005 15:09 (twenty years ago)

(Ally in the background)

― Mooro (Mooro), Monday, 8 August 2005 15:10 (twenty years ago)

PIPAS! LANGUAGE OF FLOWERS!
is this to be believed?

― dahlin (dahlin), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 09:34 (twenty years ago)

Errrr... will any of the boys there be wearing kilts?

― Win A Lie-Down, Mrs. Davies (kate), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 09:36 (twenty years ago)

possibly!
not my boy tho
he's english

― dahlin (dahlin), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 10:47 (twenty years ago)

what have you heard, dahlin? what am i supposed to be believing? or not?

― michael grant (michael digby grant), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 10:54 (twenty years ago)

How about an "in-store" appearance for those of us who have to have an early night?

I suggest Chicken Cottage, Upper Holborn, at about 4.30. The "Upper" refers to our choice of pills.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 11:16 (twenty years ago)

How much does this cost? I'll come anyway, but I'd like it to be cheap. I am not referring to how much the instore Chicken Cottage event is, those things are always free.

― Raston Warrior Robot (alix), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 11:39 (twenty years ago)

I want to see Ally play sweet music.

― marianna lcl (marianna lcl), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 11:41 (twenty years ago)

And Silver Springs, featuring Katie G who is not at all unrelated to this Man2ManParrish (and who are rather quite good)!

― Lucretia My Reflection (Lucretia My Reflection), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 11:46 (twenty years ago)

It truly is ILX0rpollooza this weekend. Now why couldn't we have managed to get the gigs on the same night at the same venue?

― Win A Lie-Down, Mrs. Davies (kate), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 11:56 (twenty years ago)

I only want to see the Michelle Dotrices.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 12:05 (twenty years ago)

So, 4 bands on the same night. (Silver Springs, Language Of Flowers, Pipas & Dot to Dot.)

I hope the music extends over a long period, otherwise no band will actually be on stage for very long.

― Mooro (Mooro), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 12:09 (twenty years ago)

pipas said they'll be short and sweet
pity :(
will you be recording the magic?

― dahlin (dahlin), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 12:14 (twenty years ago)

(Wait a minute, is this going to be really twee? What am I letting myself in for?)

― Win A Lie-Down, Mrs. Davies (kate), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 12:15 (twenty years ago)

a wee bit twee
tho dot to dot are also RAWK

― dahlin (dahlin), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 12:17 (twenty years ago)

I ph34r the twee. I may only go if I am promised kilts.

― Win A Lie-Down, Mrs. Davies (kate), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 12:18 (twenty years ago)

dude.. you like 10-year-old artists! I just discovered.... crazy!
i bet michael would wear a kilt if you asked nicely

― dahlin (dahlin), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 12:22 (twenty years ago)

I may try to come to this

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 12:22 (twenty years ago)

Ph34r the kilt tree!

― Mooro (Mooro), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 12:23 (twenty years ago)

RJG, would you wear you kilt, please?

― Win A Lie-Down, Mrs. Davies (kate), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 12:23 (twenty years ago)

sorry

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 12:24 (twenty years ago)

my kilt is still in glasgow. and it would involve some compliocated cross-country manoeuvering to get it down. also, i don't want to. i might get egged.

― michael grant (michael digby grant), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 12:28 (twenty years ago)

Maybe I'll dig out my own kilt. But then I would possibly become quite confused. (Though it's a bugger to wear in the summer, it weighs a ton and is quite hot.)

― Win A Lie-Down, Mrs. Davies (kate), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 12:30 (twenty years ago)

Hurrah! The Buffalo Bar is right by my house! Easiest ILx meet up ever. (Please stay and come and see our band the following evening)

― Anna (Anna), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 13:00 (twenty years ago)

If RJG comes I would like to qualify to become his Friendster.

Which is all the more reason to do an in-store.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 13:05 (twenty years ago)

does PJ miller work at chicken cottage?

― colette (a2lette), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 13:36 (twenty years ago)

Above and to the left. Close enough to have a strong spiritual bond. I think they only have workers who need to adapt to the British way of life though.

this onanon place sounds totally awesome now. so basically a better dressed version of the buffalo bars after 11:30!!

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 2 September 2005 12:29 (twenty years ago)

-s

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 2 September 2005 12:31 (twenty years ago)

I'll try and pop by for the gig but nil else as no pub appears to have been conclusively agreed for pre(/post?)-gig drinks and I need to pop off to a meeting in five minutes.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Friday, 2 September 2005 12:32 (twenty years ago)

Alls I'm going to say is Anna, you better not be too hungover tomorrow.

Now I'm going to go away and sulk.

― Luminiferous Aether (kate), Friday, 2 September 2005 12:35 (twenty years ago)

ohnoonanon might be off! :(

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 2 September 2005 12:38 (twenty years ago)

Sorry, I have been asked to clarify my appaling LondoN accents. Anna's Manna = Namma's Manor, her area of abode, as opposed to Anna's Manner = Anna's style of drinking = RUIN.

I suspect Ken's mind was off on another direction altogether!

― Mooro (Mooro), Friday, 2 September 2005 12:40 (twenty years ago)

it works on so many levels (or something)

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 2 September 2005 12:42 (twenty years ago)

I thought Ken was upset because it's sort of his manor too, although my house is nearer.

― Anna (Anna), Friday, 2 September 2005 12:44 (twenty years ago)

Ken's Manor is Spoofer's Bar.

― Pete (Pete), Friday, 2 September 2005 13:05 (twenty years ago)

Yeesh.

― Anna (Anna), Friday, 2 September 2005 13:05 (twenty years ago)

that's not there anymore!! it's changed to something else (i forgot the name)

my manna is the holloway

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 2 September 2005 13:20 (twenty years ago)

and the big red when i'm feeling like a game of pool

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 2 September 2005 13:20 (twenty years ago)

I leave work at 5.30, so will be in Holloway area for 6ish. Where will nice people I know be at that point so I can join?

― Raston Warrior Robot (alix), Friday, 2 September 2005 13:28 (twenty years ago)

(parse that, syntax swine)

― Raston Warrior Robot (alix), Friday, 2 September 2005 13:28 (twenty years ago)

possibly at The Court on tottenham court road. playing pool. but otherwise at my gaff eating noodles

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 2 September 2005 13:30 (twenty years ago)

I think The Bailey. Or the Lickle Red.

― Pete (Pete), Friday, 2 September 2005 13:33 (twenty years ago)

― CarsmileSteve (CarsmileSteve), Friday, 2 September 2005 14:20 (twenty years ago)

Don't think I can make this now. Apologies. Have a good night, all.

― Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Friday, 2 September 2005 15:50 (twenty years ago)

I'ma come to the Cock in about 30. If no one is there I'm gonna see if Anna is home and take it from there.

― suzy (suzy), Friday, 2 September 2005 15:54 (twenty years ago)

Can Dot to Dot please come to Dublin? They can stay at mine.

― Lara (Lara), Friday, 2 September 2005 16:00 (twenty years ago)

Bummer, Michael, I shall miss you. I had a cd-r to give you for your beautiful wife as well. Never mind, that can be posted.

― Mooro (Mooro), Friday, 2 September 2005 16:01 (twenty years ago)

gaun yerselves, dot to dot. do glasgow proud.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Friday, 2 September 2005 16:02 (twenty years ago)

I'm coming for a drinkie-poo but cannae make the gig

― Raymond Douglas Dadaismus (Dada), Friday, 2 September 2005 16:05 (twenty years ago)

I wish I was there.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 2 September 2005 17:15 (twenty years ago)

I don't. London sounds fucking weird these days.

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 2 September 2005 18:16 (twenty years ago)

― toby (tsg20), Friday, 2 September 2005 22:56 (twenty years ago)

My Dot to Dot cherry has finally been popped. Very entertaining, thanks for the long trip down just to play for us.

Thanks to Alba too, for the gay baboon ass shaking description, which was spot on.

Alba DAB radios are only £28 in Tescos, albeit they are little style vacuums.

― Mooro (Mooro), Friday, 2 September 2005 23:13 (twenty years ago)

dot to dot were actually rather good. i liked!

i recognised/liked a girl. but she left before i managed to speak to/hit on her:/

violent femmes are rubbish

― charltonlido (gareth), Friday, 2 September 2005 23:19 (twenty years ago)

ally c's dancing was phoenomenal

(and the singing too)

― ken c (ken c), Saturday, 3 September 2005 06:11 (twenty years ago)

oh god i was so drunk. apologies to everyone i spoke to, i can only imagine i was talking complete nonsense for mostof the evening. ow.

― toby (tsg20), Saturday, 3 September 2005 07:00 (twenty years ago)

i haven't seen so much atmosphere in the b.bar for a long while

(p.s. i never made it to onanon in the end - too sleepy and home toooooooo close)

― ken c (ken c), Saturday, 3 September 2005 11:13 (twenty years ago)

Ally is good to us.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Saturday, 3 September 2005 11:15 (twenty years ago)

You are all better to me. Thanks for coming, everyone! We had fun. Except losing that goal just as we got into Glasgow. Arse.

We will return.

― Ally C (Ally C), Saturday, 3 September 2005 17:57 (twenty years ago)

Apologies for not making it - next time, maybe.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Saturday, 3 September 2005 21:16 (twenty years ago)

I had fun and a lot to drink

― RJG (RJG), Saturday, 3 September 2005 21:22 (twenty years ago)

i have a sore ass
and neck

― dahlin (dahlin), Saturday, 3 September 2005 21:29 (twenty years ago)

A typical outcome after a night with Cook.

― Alba (Alba), Saturday, 3 September 2005 21:34 (twenty years ago)

if only it were just one night...
more like 36 hours straight...
knackered
photos soon

― dahlin (dahlin), Saturday, 3 September 2005 21:59 (twenty years ago)

photos now

― dahlin (dahlin), Saturday, 3 September 2005 22:15 (twenty years ago)

thanks, for the absinthe, bed and sunglasses, anna

I felt a lot better, by lunchtime

― RJG (RJG), Saturday, 3 September 2005 22:25 (twenty years ago)

nice to meet matt DC and gareth, even though I barely spoke to either

― RJG (RJG), Saturday, 3 September 2005 22:30 (twenty years ago)

If anyone wants a 1:55 sample of Dot to Dot covering 'Opportunities (Let's Make Lots Of Money)' let me know & I'll save it somewhere before deleting the minidisc. Aplogies to the Dot to Dot massive for my poor battery recharging management skills.

― Mooro (Mooro), Sunday, 4 September 2005 12:26 (twenty years ago)

Dreadful organisation is part of our manifesto, David. Go with it.

― Ally C (Ally C), Sunday, 4 September 2005 12:40 (twenty years ago)

I felt a lot better, by lunchtime

-- RJG

Yes. You know how I seemed okay? About an hour after you left, I started throwing up. In an odd way it comforted me. I don't really want to be capable of metabolising more alcohol than you, given that you are much bigger than me.

― Anna (Anna), Monday, 5 September 2005 08:25 (twenty years ago)

Mooro could I be 'hooked up' with that 'Opportunities' cover at some point? Gracias!

Apologies to Ally for saying I would go and then not doing so. This was due to the wrong amount of stuff in my house I had to pack up (i.e. more than I thought).

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Monday, 5 September 2005 08:33 (twenty years ago)

Why couldn't Michael go? I'm worried now.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Tuesday, 6 September 2005 15:39 (twenty years ago)

I have looked at the photos.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Tuesday, 6 September 2005 15:42 (twenty years ago)

did they make you cry?

― dahlin (dahlin), Tuesday, 6 September 2005 18:42 (twenty years ago)
