Can this be true?? I was only there... about six months ago.

Alba (Alba), Thursday, 21 April 2005 21:23 (nineteen years ago) link

Alba, you're a big fat thin liar.

I wouldn't be sad if the Carnarvon wasn't there anymore.

ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 21 April 2005 21:26 (nineteen years ago) link

Anyway - let's settle on the D&M, yes?

Stirmonster - I heard you lost a toss for tomorrow! As I typed that, 'The Sky Was Pink' came onto a mix I was listening to...

Alba (Alba), Thursday, 21 April 2005 21:26 (nineteen years ago) link

Me, on a typical Friday night:

I shall expect nothing less.

Googling "tie head" threw up this excellent example.

I will attempt to be in the Drum & Monkey around teatime, though I don't know what anyone looks like.

word about my tossing activities spreads fast alba! i am getting more sure that last time i passed the carnarvon it wasn't there any more. just not 100% sure yet.

stirmonster (stirmonster), Thursday, 21 April 2005 21:50 (nineteen years ago) link

Alba will have a tie tied round his head. Simple yet effective recognition tool! It can be like the upside-down-badge of ILX.

The woman behind is doing her best to look unimpressed.

Alba (Alba), Thursday, 21 April 2005 21:54 (nineteen years ago) link

That's a wedding photo? Dullest wedding reception EVER!

ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 21 April 2005 21:55 (nineteen years ago) link

Where is the Carnarvon?

KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 21 April 2005 21:56 (nineteen years ago) link

Unless you mean Wales...

KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 21 April 2005 21:57 (nineteen years ago) link

Dull? He has a tie around his head!

Onimo (GerryNemo), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:01 (nineteen years ago) link

I guess, there's a guy in a shiny shirt too. It's F!U!N!. Whoo! (let's discount the fact that there doesn't appear to have been anyone anywhere near any of the other tables in the background so either no-one has been coming near tie dude all night, or else he's having that much fun before anyone else even gets there)

Me, some moments ago:

Alba (Alba), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:08 (nineteen years ago) link

Haha,

That'll help

KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:08 (nineteen years ago) link

Anyone going to the Plan B night at Sleazy's on Fri?
Christ! Red Well! The Magnificents!
Should be ace and it's only £4!

Stew (stew s), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:10 (nineteen years ago) link

As long as you turn up looking like that...

KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:10 (nineteen years ago) link

That's nothing like you, yet it is, somehow. That tie also bears an uncanny resemblance to the curtains in my primary school assembly hall.

Onimo, you posted on a photo thread. Therefore if you wear a Celtic shirt and surround yourself with small excited children, you will be recognisable!

I might not be there until after six now, due to having to go for a pint in Paisley with a work colleague.

ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:13 (nineteen years ago) link

OK... It's the drum and monkey I see. I'll be over about 8 or so I guess. Nick, can you let me know by text if you're going somewhere else? Cheers.

KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:14 (nineteen years ago) link

The Carnarvon is not the Carnarvon, it is now called Oscar Slaters.

OK, D&M it is. I will be there at 4.30-5pm.

Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:16 (nineteen years ago) link

Talking of Paisley, I'm listening to Gerry Rafferty's 'Night Owl'.

KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:16 (nineteen years ago) link

Btw, that is my favourite picture of Dastoor ever.

Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:17 (nineteen years ago) link

I was hoping that everyone would post a picture of themselves with a 'tie head', for Gerry's benefit.

Alba (Alba), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:20 (nineteen years ago) link

(NB. not Gerry Rafferty's benefit)

Alba (Alba), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:21 (nineteen years ago) link

I was hoping you did requests and you could do a black and white minstrel show thing

KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:22 (nineteen years ago) link

Good work team! Proper little Steering Committee! Look forward to seeing you tomorrow.

Onimo, I'll be the disgusting, drooling drunk whose alcohol tolerance has crumbled under the wheels of a particularly large wagon. I'm deliberately not packing a tie.

Tim (Tim), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:28 (nineteen years ago) link

Good work Tim! That'll make you easily recognizable in a pub on a Friday night.

KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:31 (nineteen years ago) link

I was hoping you did requests and you could do a black and white minstrel show thing

I might do that at the Gerry Rafferty benefit (in the back room of Oscar Slaters, Saturday).

Alba (Alba), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:33 (nineteen years ago) link

I don't get this 'Gerry Rafferty Benefit' thing... Can you fill me in?

KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:34 (nineteen years ago) link

No, but here's a picture of Tim:

Alba (Alba), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:35 (nineteen years ago) link

Ha!

KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:36 (nineteen years ago) link

I don't have any photos of me, but I look a bit like this, sometimes.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v710/muppetbaby/southpark.bmp

If anyone links to any pictures of me on Sinister, I'll stab them.

ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:36 (nineteen years ago) link

Which begs the question: who is best at Pinteresque pauses these days?

KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:37 (nineteen years ago) link

(he was talking about Wolf Eyes, btw)

Alba (Alba), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:37 (nineteen years ago) link

I thought he was talking about Dot to Dot.

Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:38 (nineteen years ago) link

This is me:

KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:38 (nineteen years ago) link

I certainly think .2. should include more Pinteresque pauses in their set. Many more.

Alba (Alba), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:39 (nineteen years ago) link

Keith, have you seen the national Pop League photos for last month? There's one that I'm pretty sure is you http://us.f1.yahoofs.com/groups/g_4987371/NPL40+250305/4015.jpg?bcI4DaCBQM.3PDPc

I also think that's the back of my head in the foreground.

ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:40 (nineteen years ago) link

Hmm, not sure... I look as though I'm dancing with the crusty guy I argued with at Ally's party. So maybe not... The face looks right, but not sure about the ears. Don't know!

KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:42 (nineteen years ago) link

I was hoping you'd have one of me with arms in the air on the stage!

KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:43 (nineteen years ago) link

Alba (Alba), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:43 (nineteen years ago) link

damn.

Alba (Alba), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:44 (nineteen years ago) link

Is Matt a crusty guy? Also, do you even remember arguing with anyone at Ally's party?

They aren't my photos, they are off the NPL yahoo group. I'm just glad there isn't one of me jumping up and down to My Sharona.

ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:46 (nineteen years ago) link

Actually, no... Matt is not. But there was another guy who looks like Matt I argued with.

The song 'My Sharona' was the highlight of the night. And maybe my life.

KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:47 (nineteen years ago) link

ally hasn't had a party, this year.

I wonder why!!

RJG (RJG), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:47 (nineteen years ago) link

Oh yes! Sorry... Richard's party!

Bedtime anyway... Catch you lot tomorrow.

KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:48 (nineteen years ago) link

I know who he means. I think it is stretching it to say he is crusty. He's very tall though.

Alba (Alba), Thursday, 21 April 2005 22:48 (nineteen years ago) link

See you, Keef!

RJG - are you feeling better yet?

I have 4 tickets for BRWHBTW.
