It seems that the Josh Pearson gig has moved to Barfly on the Monday. He's on first before a bunch of inferior talents, but at least that means I can leave after him and go to the King Creoste gig at Mono.
Anyway, this means we don't necessarily have to FAP in Tuts on Thurs. Any alternative suggestions?

Stew (stew s), Sunday, 4 September 2005 10:35 (eighteen years ago) link

if there are, we'd better make 'em quickly 'cos aldo needs to know today. tut's is fine by me. anywhere's fine by me, really.

grimly fiendish (grimlord), Sunday, 4 September 2005 10:39 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm fine with Tut's but just thought I'd throw it open. As there won't be a gig on there now it should be quite quiet, which is definitely a positive.

Stew (stew s), Sunday, 4 September 2005 10:47 (eighteen years ago) link

Gerry can always text me with any venue change, but Tuts is fine, aye.

btw Gerry, interested in a Royal Burger on Thursday?

aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Sunday, 4 September 2005 11:00 (eighteen years ago) link

Royal wid cheese? Sounds good.

Onimo (GerryNemo), Sunday, 4 September 2005 11:03 (eighteen years ago) link

I should be done by the time you're finishing work so I can meet you somewhere handy.

Hello! My name is Chris and I know some of you - this thread took me so long to open that I wanted to leave my mark! I hope you are all well and that. I'm looking forward to seeing the clientele at the winchester next week. Are you? Is Keith coming through for it? I can't keep up with this ilxor stuff. Cheerie!

Chris Leonard, Sunday, 4 September 2005 18:56 (eighteen years ago) link

Chrys,

Yeah probably. They're at Backpackers here on Friday; where you were a few weeks ago, as will be Tim, who's staying with me. I'll most likely come through on Saturday. Let's rock!

KeefW (kmw), Sunday, 4 September 2005 19:59 (eighteen years ago) link

Last Wednesday's gig was the best I have ever seen The Clientele play & the material from the new album is excellent: I hope that they are in the same form for Glasgow (& Edinburgh)!

Mooro (Mooro), Sunday, 4 September 2005 20:05 (eighteen years ago) link

My flat smells of fireworks right now.

KeefW (kmw), Sunday, 4 September 2005 20:11 (eighteen years ago) link

I mean literally!

KeefW (kmw), Sunday, 4 September 2005 20:12 (eighteen years ago) link

KeefW - cool, see you next week! Please pass on my fond regards to Tim.

My flat smells of dog farts right now (at least I am blaming the dog and haha, get this - he can't talk to defend himself. Sucker!)

ug ug ug (like popeye)

I will be in spain, though

hi chris! if you register and login and pish, you can go to "settings" and change "messages displayed" or something, to "last 50"

RJG (RJG), Sunday, 4 September 2005 21:34 (eighteen years ago) link

I am lookimg forward to trying Edinburgh and Glasgow next weekend, especially now I have dangling before me the prospect of a rare sighting of the Lynyrd. But I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of you too. I'm not looking forward to seeing RJG next weekend, though. I'm looking forward to seeing him, at some other time.

DMCUK is right about The Clientele, but then you wouldn't expect anything else. Would you?

Tim (Tim), Sunday, 4 September 2005 21:49 (eighteen years ago) link

thanks for the top tip RJGillanders man! I might just do that! I looked upon that very Winchester poster with my eyes in MONO earlier today. I chortled at the michael jackson - dot to dot - felt bit. Just slipped the "dot to dot" in there, you cheeky wee dotters! Good stuff. Sleeka Sounds Corporation.

I have no idea who "Annie" or "Rocketship" are - is that like..an ilxor thing? If so hello!

Or is it "Annie the musical" and that it means "starship" instead of "rocketship" like Jefferson Starship? I feel stupid. Have Rocketship not heard "we built this city"? Is it a tribute band? If not, hello!

And yay, Tim - I look forward to seeing you!

Chris......., Sunday, 4 September 2005 21:55 (eighteen years ago) link

annie - current norwegian pop singer

rocketship - '90s californian indie band


I never know what to put on the posters since no-one talks to me

I just put on two or three things I know that winchester people like and fill the rest in myself. I think my choices very rarely get played but I don't mind since I very rarely go!

RJG (RJG), Sunday, 4 September 2005 22:18 (eighteen years ago) link

Glasgow stunned me today, at times, with it's beauty and youth and adventure, on a perfect summer day. I almost wished I had had someone to share it with, but also I was glad to be alone and observing. Trusting in prudence.

Goodnight, Glasgow. I still love you.

Ally C (Ally C), Sunday, 4 September 2005 22:37 (eighteen years ago) link

Dear Prudence.

Mooro (Mooro), Monday, 5 September 2005 03:00 (eighteen years ago) link

i tried glasgow for two years and apart from its roaming aggressive 10 year olds, it was very good to me.

hello to people i know, people i don't know, and people i might know but have tricky coded names!

Kate B (kate b), Monday, 5 September 2005 07:18 (eighteen years ago) link

dahlin (dahlin), Monday, 5 September 2005 10:47 (eighteen years ago) link

Hi Kate! Hi Chrys!

RJG, I think that is the best poster yet. I love the way the bling fits the text.

Mädchen (Madchen), Monday, 5 September 2005 10:49 (eighteen years ago) link

RJG (RJG), Monday, 5 September 2005 11:04 (eighteen years ago) link

Hi Lucy! Hi Kate! Thanks for the top tips RJG, I have registered and managed to open this page in record fast time!

I think the poster is nice too, well done!

Chrys Lynyrd (chrys), Monday, 5 September 2005 12:45 (eighteen years ago) link

i like the poster/flyer a lot. i'm particularly impressed by the attention to detail with "abba".

i also like the sound of the club, and if i'm back from perth in time next saturday, i shall try to attend.

grimly fiendish (grimlord), Monday, 5 September 2005 13:06 (eighteen years ago) link

nice poster : )

cozen (Cozen), Monday, 5 September 2005 13:13 (eighteen years ago) link

I shall, maybe, be in attendance. I too like the poster, but I feel like I'd just be copying everyone else by saying so. So I won't.

RJG (RJG), Monday, 5 September 2005 15:58 (eighteen years ago) link

I'll have hers: i like the poster.

stet (stet), Monday, 5 September 2005 16:00 (eighteen years ago) link

Everyone: shut up about the poster.

Nice poster.

Ally C (Ally C), Monday, 5 September 2005 16:03 (eighteen years ago) link

I might steal one

cozen (johnson), Monday, 5 September 2005 17:22 (eighteen years ago) link

The Yellow Peril!

Lynyrd! B*****!! So much Glasgow love! We just won anotehr £25 at the pub quiz!

Ally C (Ally C), Monday, 5 September 2005 21:33 (eighteen years ago) link

not anotehr £25

we won £10, last time, but OK!!


that comic does look great but nothing like any of the close shaves I've experienced, in my time

RJG (RJG), Monday, 5 September 2005 21:47 (eighteen years ago) link

hello glasgow!

i have a whole day of work ahead of me, don't go to bed!

what good things have happened to glasgow in the last year?

Kate B (kate b), Tuesday, 6 September 2005 00:00 (eighteen years ago) link

We just won anotehr £25 at the pub quiz!

I'm sure there are other things

RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 6 September 2005 00:07 (eighteen years ago) link

that'll do, RJG :)

new in melbourne: my sister has stayed home from school today to finish a 5000 word story for her english class, which has to be written in the style of a mills & boon novel. the class is supposed to be demonstrating writing clichés that should normally be avoided and yet it's the longest essay (x 5) they've ever been assigned. i think the teacher has plagiarism in her sights, otherwise it doesn't make sense. my only memory of this teacher is that she was allergic to solvents and would run out of the classroom whenever anyone brandished a wite-out.

Kate B (kate b), Tuesday, 6 September 2005 00:32 (eighteen years ago) link

I think of plagiarism as kind of a cliché

I am going to spain, on thurs, with cathy, until mon, to help(?) her look for a flat (she is going there, to live, for ten months, as part of her course, and we were there, already, at the end of july or so, to see what it was like, and it was nice)

then I am going to apply for some jobs

I wrote a bit of a C.V., today

RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 6 September 2005 00:39 (eighteen years ago) link

very exciting news about spain!

i'm going to mount baw baw with my dad on the weekend. glasgow taught me to find humour in the name of the place.

Kate B (kate b), Tuesday, 6 September 2005 01:00 (eighteen years ago) link

poor old baw baw

RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 6 September 2005 01:08 (eighteen years ago) link

glasgow is beautiful this morning

cozen (Cozen), Tuesday, 6 September 2005 06:39 (eighteen years ago) link

Lucky old baw baw.

OK, a furtehr £25.

Ally C (Ally C), Tuesday, 6 September 2005 10:45 (eighteen years ago) link

I am going to Spain, on Saturday. But not Leon.

PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Tuesday, 6 September 2005 10:52 (eighteen years ago) link

It is a good poster, yes. But you left off "Tim H".

PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Tuesday, 6 September 2005 10:53 (eighteen years ago) link

i kinda miss university.

jeffrey (johnson), Tuesday, 6 September 2005 11:00 (eighteen years ago) link
