cozen why are you in?

― jed_ (jed), Sunday, 28 August 2005 23:18 (eighteen years ago) link

Hey Dahlin, that's the Plan B people put to bed and me about to crash. What a lovely night. Jens was indeed swoonsome musically speaking. His songs and performance really touched me: so warm, romantic and lovely. Aaaahh. Momus was indeed there but left before we plucked up the courage to say hello. Oy vey!

Hey did anyone try the Pixies more in Edinburgh last night? It was pretty excellent, although I had been a bit dubious beforehand.

― alext (alext), Monday, 29 August 2005 06:36 (eighteen years ago) link

my friend, fergie, did

phoned me up, during "where is my mind?", I think!

I said hello, to momus, last night.

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 09:24 (eighteen years ago) link

i got a text from my pal phil saying: "debas**er!!!!"

what did momus say? did he hail the might of RJG, fellow elder statesman of ILX, or did he just peer at you and do that slightly funny chin thing he does?

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Monday, 29 August 2005 09:28 (eighteen years ago) link

he said "ah, you're RJG. I think we may have crossed swords, in the past, but probably agreed about other things, too" and that we must do one of the impromptu ILXer sightings things

he was borrowing a chair, from my table

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 09:34 (eighteen years ago) link

so, a bit of both

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 09:36 (eighteen years ago) link

you had discourse

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 29 August 2005 09:47 (eighteen years ago) link

so are any of you going to DinosaurJr tonite in the end? I haven´t heard anything good from their Benicassim show...

― olenska (olenska), Monday, 29 August 2005 09:50 (eighteen years ago) link

I am going to go to the quiz at the liquid ship, tonight, I think

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 09:52 (eighteen years ago) link

I tried to blag free tickets. It didn't work. Anyway, I feel ill and have been up all night vomiting so wouldn't have been able to go anyway.

We need REPORTING BACK from the party! Did anyone pee in a corner? Did anyone turn up? (Scotstvo, I didn't get your text until Sunday morning and I don't have any credit in my phone to reply anyway, sorry).

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 29 August 2005 09:54 (eighteen years ago) link

our party?

lots of people turned up

it was quite civilised (no peeing, that I saw, at all)

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 09:59 (eighteen years ago) link

Yes, your party. Sorry I didn't come, I was too lazy to be bothered moving, and also talking to people. I'm glad it was good.

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 29 August 2005 10:08 (eighteen years ago) link

it was civilised! there were SNACKS and plastic cups, arranged neatly on a table!
and the place was CLEAN!
except ally's room which smelled like boy. yuck

― dahlin (dahlin), Monday, 29 August 2005 10:19 (eighteen years ago) link

where boy = fish

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 29 August 2005 10:21 (eighteen years ago) link

where fish = don't ask

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 10:27 (eighteen years ago) link

This all sounds very non-148-like (xpost - I meant about the snacks and tidiness, not the odd smells). It may have confused me. Actually I don't think I've ever been to one of your parties. I don't really *do* parties.

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 29 August 2005 10:28 (eighteen years ago) link

Where don't ask = no really, don't ask.

I liked the civilisation. Luckily there was a big crazy party across the street which people who wanted that kind of thing were quite happy to go to after spending a while being civilised at ours.

― Ally C (Ally C), Monday, 29 August 2005 10:31 (eighteen years ago) link

148 was usually pretty tidy, for parties, and we had snacks, a few times

I think, unfortunately, people often confuse dilapidation for untidyness

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 10:32 (eighteen years ago) link

I think I may be guilty of that. And I really can't now recall ever having been at one of your parties, but I'm sure I must have been at at least one.

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 29 August 2005 10:34 (eighteen years ago) link

I saw someone pee in a bottle at the party.

― Cathy (Cathy), Monday, 29 August 2005 11:00 (eighteen years ago) link

Take that back.

― Ally C (Ally C), Monday, 29 August 2005 11:03 (eighteen years ago) link

...to the shop for 20p?

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 29 August 2005 11:08 (eighteen years ago) link

The LOST fairy was here during the night and left presents for the four of you.

Had I been awake, I would have asked why she couldn't have left them at your houses.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Monday, 29 August 2005 11:19 (eighteen years ago) link

GOOD! Because that stinky nasty cricket over-ran on Sunday and meant they cancelled the repeat of the episode I didn't see on Wednesday because I was out bouzing, and I have teh fear of downloading stuff myself.

Also, thanks! Have you thought of a PUB yet?

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 29 August 2005 11:34 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm happy to do whatever Glasgow wants. If downstairs at KT's is the best venue then that's OK.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Monday, 29 August 2005 11:40 (eighteen years ago) link

why not? it's quite good down there. especially when there's a gig on upstairs and it's empty :)

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Monday, 29 August 2005 11:46 (eighteen years ago) link

oh, I had forgotten it was BH over there. And here I am suffering to stay awake at work. madchen, are you about? Talked yesterday seriously with boyfr aboud trying Glasgow soon

― olenska (olenska), Monday, 29 August 2005 12:53 (eighteen years ago) link

I am here, but confused as to your identity, mystery person!

― Mädchen (Madchen), Monday, 29 August 2005 13:04 (eighteen years ago) link

Try @r@ntx@ s@nz g@rci@

― Mooro (Mooro), Monday, 29 August 2005 14:12 (eighteen years ago) link

Madchen, the "big" day approacheth and I have NOTHING TO WEAR! Let's go shopping! I will buy you lunch/booze/presents in return. I went briefly with my mum, got as far as Wallis and H&M and got teh shopping fear. Please come hold my hand and make me buy nice things.

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 29 August 2005 15:20 (eighteen years ago) link

what, we all have to buy new clothes for aldo's visit?

i might wash my pants, i guess.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Monday, 29 August 2005 15:22 (eighteen years ago) link

Just keep the soup out of your 'tache and you'll be fine.

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Monday, 29 August 2005 15:45 (eighteen years ago) link

I went for a trim and he gave me a haircut

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 29 August 2005 15:49 (eighteen years ago) link

fancy that

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 15:55 (eighteen years ago) link

on nick's recommendation, I am going to try COBALT, soon

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 15:56 (eighteen years ago) link

cobalt? the metallic element, number 27 on the periodic table, with similarities to nickel, from which a blue pigment is derived?

or a new bar, the appearance of which - because i am rapidly becoming quite old and sad - has passed me by?

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Monday, 29 August 2005 16:02 (eighteen years ago) link

Hairdressers, innit?

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 29 August 2005 16:06 (eighteen years ago) link

I might try COBALT too, on nick's recommendation

they better not do to me what they did to nick

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 29 August 2005 16:11 (eighteen years ago) link

or CUSP

but not KROMA

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 29 August 2005 16:18 (eighteen years ago) link

stop getting fucking haircuts

you're like hen broon

crosspost

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 16:20 (eighteen years ago) link

I'll get as many as I want!

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 29 August 2005 16:38 (eighteen years ago) link

Hairdressers, innit?

yes, that occurred to me several minutes after i hit "send".

green's on king street is da bomb. seven pound fifty, including sideburns. and hopefully moustaches.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Monday, 29 August 2005 16:40 (eighteen years ago) link

I think I am looking for something a bit poncier

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 17:38 (eighteen years ago) link

they have a ladies' section?

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Monday, 29 August 2005 17:42 (eighteen years ago) link

I will call, tomorrow

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 18:05 (eighteen years ago) link

I think you should just walk in. It would be cheaper.

― Alba (Alba), Monday, 29 August 2005 18:32 (eighteen years ago) link

(however, if they say they have no standbys going, then don't carry on walking in - it is polite to come back another time in this situation)

― Alba (Alba), Monday, 29 August 2005 18:33 (eighteen years ago) link
