blow?

― jed_ (jed), Friday, 30 June 2006 12:48 (seventeen years ago) link

Hmm. Me and Neil are now thinking about going to the West End somewhere tomorrow to watch the football and laze about and drink and stuff. Enrique, I'll email you my mobile number. Will probably be out most of tomorrow so can't check email, but get in touch via mobile. But surely someone somewhere somehow will be in touch with some people who, between us, have all the other people's phone numbers. Yes?

GF, how teh fuck were you drunk? You didn't get to the pub until FIVE HOURS after me. I got up for work still drunk this morning. Yay me.

Top night, btw, cheers dudes. Dahlin, I did try to make people go over to SOS, even for a wee bit. Madchen felt inappropriately dressed. Sorry :-(

cozen and i have henry's and i take it cozen has everyone's? see you the morra! :)

― jed_ (jed), Friday, 30 June 2006 18:43 (seventeen years ago) link

Cozen probably doesn't have my number any more, since I've changed it fairly recently. However, Ally C & Madchen (amongst others) have it, so, yeah, stuff will happen. Hey! We're not so shit at this fun-organising!

― ailsa (ailsa), Friday, 30 June 2006 18:53 (seventeen years ago) link

Anyone Pop Leaguing it tonight? I am!

Kim Fowley - ok, a friend who works for the SCottish Music Centre had been in contact with him and sent him a Beard. This was a couple of months ago. Then out of the blue I answer my phone and it's like "Hi this is Kim Fowley!"
He sounded me out about Glasgow music and stuff. We had a nice chat. He referred to himself in the third person a number of times as only a true star can and reeled off his record sales like that. What a guy!
He's coming over later in the year and was like, "Maybe we can go to Mono and watch some rock n roll bands!" Yeah!

― Stew (stew s), Friday, 30 June 2006 18:55 (seventeen years ago) link

I thought about Pop League, but last night sort of killed me. Then I went out for a couple of pints to watch the football after work today and have just realised that I'm completely and utterly knackered. So quiet night in to get ready for tomorrow.

(Stew, we did wave at you out of Crystal Palace window. Also, Kim Fowley-FAP!)

― ailsa (ailsa), Friday, 30 June 2006 19:12 (seventeen years ago) link

Ah,sorry I never bother to look into pubs! Was I eating a minging bag of chips?

― Stew (stew s), Friday, 30 June 2006 19:33 (seventeen years ago) link

You were striding purposefully in, maybe about 9/9.30-ish? We waved at lots of people, then decided this was a shit policy because no-one looks into random other pubs and started delegating me into running across the road to talk to people.

― ailsa (ailsa), Friday, 30 June 2006 19:40 (seventeen years ago) link

Madchen felt inappropriately dressed.

I agreed with he, in a completely non-sexist manner, I seem to recall.

Cheers glasgow, you were aces, as ever.

I won't mention blue prawns (except to remind journos that they were offended by it, and they should remember what they threatened to do).

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Friday, 30 June 2006 20:23 (seventeen years ago) link

heard about you

― RJG (RJG), Friday, 30 June 2006 20:39 (seventeen years ago) link

We shall meet some day, I am sure.

Though it'll be the first to contribute to the poxy fules!

Cozen and I are going to the eats tapes thing. Anyone else fancy it? I get out of work at 10 so a drink then would be good.

BIRCHVILLE CAT MOTEL + RICHARD YOUNGS/ALEX NEILSON DUO + OPAQUE
TUESDAY, JANUARY 9, 2006, 8PM, 5pounds
Glasgow, 13th Note, King Street

― Ward Fowler (Ward Fowler), Friday, 5 January 2007 18:46 (seventeen years ago) link

I read that as 'eats tapas', and was momentarily excited. unfortunately I don't think I'm that interested in tapes.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 5 January 2007 19:13 (seventeen years ago) link

what's the SECC like? i'm toying w/ the idea of going to see Dylan there on the 11th April (shld prob. see him before one of us kicks bucket, etc)

also tempted by Dick Gaughan performing Handful of Earth at the City Halls on the 22nd Jan

― Ward Fowler (Ward Fowler), Sunday, 7 January 2007 20:58 (seventeen years ago) link

the secc is like a big shed with terrible terrible sound.

i think i'll go see Birchville Cat Motel although i really preferred his set as Black Boned Angel at Instal 2005.

― jed_ (jed), Sunday, 7 January 2007 21:56 (seventeen years ago) link

hmmm sounds like wembley arena, one of my v. least favourite venues

yeah i agree w/ you abt Black Boned Angel vs. BCM, but I still enjoyed BCM, and it's always gd to see Richard Youngs

i hope we can finally meet up at this one, jed (since I've moved to Glasgow, quite a lot of ppl have said "you look like John Peel" to me, fwiw)

― Ward Fowler (Ward Fowler), Sunday, 7 January 2007 23:00 (seventeen years ago) link

I saw the OO there once, and it was good, but my flatmate saw the Pixies and the stage fell off, so that wasn't as good. Hard to tell. Dylan would probably be good, if I liked him, which I don't.

I don't think Jed looks like John Peel.

― KeefW (kmw), Sunday, 7 January 2007 23:02 (seventeen years ago) link

Sorry, the you in that sentence refers to me ('ward fowler', or Andrew L) not Jed

― Ward Fowler (Ward Fowler), Sunday, 7 January 2007 23:10 (seventeen years ago) link

Ah... Sorry, carry on.

― KeefW (kmw), Sunday, 7 January 2007 23:17 (seventeen years ago) link

Sorry about that... Bad joke and something to do with Blackadder.

Reading some of this thread for research purposes, or something, I note that Gareth said he was trying Glasgow more last August. Did that happen? Also, Stew was meant to be bringing Kim Fowley to the pub. Did that happen as well?

When are we going to the pub?

― ailsa (ailsa), Sunday, 4 February 2007 08:38 (seventeen years ago) link

Mono?

bumping because this is fast in nulix

and also because there are now chuggers in Byres Road, the bastards. I see they had to import London staff though.

― .stet., Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:50 (seventeen years ago) link

i didnt try glasgow more last august. i'd like to try it more this year maybe though.

well, ive never tried it before, so maybe i'll just try a little. if thats ok with everyone?

― 688, Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:54 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't get to try Glasgow this St. Patricks Day weekend. Stupid dogs, not able to take care of themselves for one lousy weekend. Grumble, mutter, complain.

― accentmonkey, Thursday, 1 March 2007 18:25 (seventeen years ago) link

Hang on! This thread has gone all sorted in chronological order so that weird timeslip day in 2003/4 when all the posts pretended they were in 2001 for a laugh has arsed this all up. And it now looks like I started this thread to get people to go to the pub and it took three years for someone to reply. And call me an asshopper.

This seems wrong. Make that first post of mine go away, Glasgow-thread-reading mods!

Also, boo to accentmonkey's non-appearance, except I wasn't going to be here anyway, so sort of yay really. Or something.

Gareth, you may indeed try Glasgow more. I don't suppose anyone will mind.

― ailsa, Thursday, 1 March 2007 20:06 (seventeen years ago) link

Ailsa, it's because of a short period you might remember where old ILX fucked up and dates went all bananas.

Sorry...

― Keith, Thursday, 1 March 2007 20:07 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh yeah, and you just said that!

― Keith, Thursday, 1 March 2007 20:08 (seventeen years ago) link

But hey, it loads much faster, doesn't it!
