... I know it's Mingus but I mean that Monk could have worn a lampshade (probably did) and still looked cool

I know I was referring to "Goodbye..." . Could I get away with one of these, do you think:

Would tom suit a boater? I don't know what he looks like but I picture him as a guy about Norman's age with a beard and long flowing dark locks down to his shoulders at least 70s style.

About as wrong as it's possible to be

Tom D., Tuesday, 13 May 2008 12:17 (sixteen years ago) link

Herman G. Neuname, Tuesday, 13 May 2008 12:28 (sixteen years ago) link

So Tom (or anyone) bought any cds or records lately?

Herman G. Neuname, Tuesday, 13 May 2008 12:34 (sixteen years ago) link

Bollocks to buying stuff, 's all downloaded off the net now, innit

Tom D., Tuesday, 13 May 2008 12:35 (sixteen years ago) link

I thought you were old skool.

Gmail is still putting cooler cookie emails in my spam folder despite me saying its not spam.
Is anyone else having this problem?

Herman G. Neuname, Tuesday, 13 May 2008 12:49 (sixteen years ago) link

I checked my gmail spam folder and couldn't find any Watercooler emails in there.

As for buying stuff, well I did get a Wolfhounds 12" for a quid in the MVE yesterday. And I just ordered these off Amazon:

Stick Men With Rayguns - Some People Deserve To Suffer CD
VA - BIPPP French Synth Wave CD

Having (too briefly) met Tom last year, all I can say is LOLOLOLOLOL RONG.

I used to imagine Tom as looking like Kevin Coyne, b/c oh his old email address.

Pashmina, Tuesday, 13 May 2008 13:06 (sixteen years ago) link

That was the name he used in his letters to the wire wasnt it?

Herman G. Neuname, Tuesday, 13 May 2008 13:22 (sixteen years ago) link

Does He Take Sugar?

Tom D., Tuesday, 13 May 2008 13:24 (sixteen years ago) link

Oh good lord... ha ha, um. No. Dada is as bald as an egg. And very thin and rather pointed and very Scottish looking.

I'm listening to lots of Scott Walker. Except for Tilt. Which confuses me.

Masonic Boom, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 10:09 (sixteen years ago) link

This is my straw boater:

PAINTER MAN, PAINTER MAN, WHO WOULD BE A PAINTER MAN?!?!?

Masonic Boom, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 10:13 (sixteen years ago) link

Wait, that's lipstick. I'm confused.

suzy, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 10:14 (sixteen years ago) link

Pointed?

Tom D, take a compliment where it is intended!

Masonic Boom, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 10:15 (sixteen years ago) link

Nice jacket, btw!

Mark G, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 10:18 (sixteen years ago) link

Nice jacket.

Turmoil is afoot at my work. Our entire agent support team got made redundant yesterday. Management are trying to convince us our team is safe, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if we lose some people in the next couple of months.

If g00bs is around - say hi if you see me at the Times New Viking/Jay Reatard gig tonight!

Colonel Poo, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 10:20 (sixteen years ago) link

lol jacket xpost

Colonel Poo, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 10:20 (sixteen years ago) link

Did anyone see that Let's LOL @ Hippies programme on BBC4 last night? 1973 docu. about a band, and their roadies, girlfriends etc living in a commune in Norfolk somewhere? And where they are now, and what they're doing now?

Tom D., Wednesday, 14 May 2008 10:20 (sixteen years ago) link

Oh damn I wanted to watch that. (no, obv)

Colonel Poo, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 10:23 (sixteen years ago) link

Anyone going to see Dr C on saturday?

Ed, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 10:24 (sixteen years ago) link

Didn't know about that?

Colonel Poo, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 10:27 (sixteen years ago) link

Yes, where's that? 1973 = horrible year + period.

Tom D., Wednesday, 14 May 2008 10:29 (sixteen years ago) link

I was reminded by email today. it's ANM, i still have seen them, with Thee Templars (No idea about them), the Fallen Leaves (great early 60s psych/beat outfit), and The Prellies (no idea about them either) At the Parliament Club, inn on the green Ladbroke Grove.

Ed, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 10:29 (sixteen years ago) link

Have you all not seen that jacket before? I wore it constantly last summer! I love the mad paisley. I think that was why Carruthers started hanging around me, he was just entranced by the paisley.

Job turmoil is teh suck. Another nibble from a headhunter for me... they nibble but they never bite.

Ah! The Prellies is the band of Texan Chrissie's husband, Gaz! You remember him from Truck? I should go to that.

We're on at 9. It's a great bill actually - the Fallen Leaves are always excellent and Thee Templars are a garagey-fun combo in the style of The Sonics. The Prellies, I don't know.

Dr.C, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 10:35 (sixteen years ago) link

Oh wait - Texan Chrissie - did I meet her at the last Parliament Club? I was talking to someone who sounds like her, and knew you, Kate.

Dr.C, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 10:38 (sixteen years ago) link

yup, that's the girl! She messaged to say that she'd met you.

Masonic Boom, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 10:40 (sixteen years ago) link

Hi there all. I am trying to write again, and I no longer smoke. This is an adjustment.

Yes, will see you tonight, CP! I may be alone, however ;_;

G00blar, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 10:46 (sixteen years ago) link

Yes, where's that? 1973 = horrible year + period.

Oi I was born that year!

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 11:33 (sixteen years ago) link

no period, then.

Mark G, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 11:34 (sixteen years ago) link

I hope dada wasnt insulted by me thinking he had long hair etc, i wasnt meaning to, i really did have that picture in my head.

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 11:47 (sixteen years ago) link

wtf

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 12:03 (sixteen years ago) link

Why do you have pictures of me in your head? Don't answer that.

Tom D., Wednesday, 14 May 2008 12:04 (sixteen years ago) link

oops wrong thread. it was meant to be that Would you dote up a cat? thread

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 12:09 (sixteen years ago) link

Herman G. Neuname, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 13:02 (sixteen years ago) link

I'd agree.

Mark G, Wednesday, 14 May 2008 13:23 (sixteen years ago) link

SCHOOL'S OUT FOR SUMMER. SCHOOL'S OUT FOREVER (until I move to Brighton and start my MA.)

I am now so tired that I am actually lying on the sofa watching Trisha. Blecccccccch.

emil.y, Thursday, 15 May 2008 10:02 (sixteen years ago) link

Congratulations. You should start the day with some revivifying booze, how about a bloody mary.

Ed, Thursday, 15 May 2008 10:09 (sixteen years ago) link

There is some rose in the fridge. Rose, Trisha & Ilx... what do you reckon?

(How do you get accents on letters in this bizzatch?)

emil.y, Thursday, 15 May 2008 10:14 (sixteen years ago) link

& eacute; but without the space.
