Stratford Circus, that's the one. I think.

I can't make April 2nd as I will be at my cousin's wedding in a big house in the country, which is about as ungrimey as you can get.

I'm a little sceptical of this live band thing though. The band at Roots Manuva veered dangerously close to funk rock territory at times on Friday and I imagine this being even less appropriate for grime. Especially Lethal B.

Great lineup though.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 10:50 (twenty-one years ago)

yes I am also suspicious of this live band thing. Itseems a little mental. I am most excited about KT Pearl!

― The Lex (The Lex), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 10:51 (twenty-one years ago)

live band could mean 'blokes with laptops' now tho

a calendar of some sorts may be needed.

i have lost track of what is happening, this friday in particular.

perhaps i will hang around in crowds, because i want to

― charltonlido (gareth), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 11:16 (twenty-one years ago)

there is a calendar. i'll give you the keys if you like.

― Sven Bastard (blueski), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 11:20 (twenty-one years ago)

i would like the keys as well, i think.

i am not sure, about this schtick.

maybe i will be, tomorrow

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 11:21 (twenty-one years ago)

i'm up for optimo at our disco. i haven't had a good supersuperlate night in quite some time.

― lauren (laurenp), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 11:23 (twenty-one years ago)

I'll come because of my whole birthday run-up thing, but you're not allowed to kiss and run on me this time, LP.

― BARMS, Wednesday, 9 March 2005 11:25 (twenty-one years ago)

it seems like rather a vulpesian schtick, if yeh get meh...tho it is strangely seductive, dammit

― Sven Bastard (blueski), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 11:26 (twenty-one years ago)

"Vulpesian"? Are you cussing in Irish?

― BARMS, Wednesday, 9 March 2005 11:29 (twenty-one years ago)

i'll come early and stay late and drink tequila and by the end of the night you'll hate me.

― lauren (laurenp), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 11:30 (twenty-one years ago)

OK, THAT'S Vulpesian.

― BARMS, Wednesday, 9 March 2005 11:31 (twenty-one years ago)

Ah shit, does Vitalic clash with the Annie/ESG/Superpitcher/Fairley thing then? Fucksticks.

― RickyT (RickyT), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 11:33 (twenty-one years ago)

I want to go to Optimo as well but that will mean juggling Seal nights because at the moment I think the 18th is the only night I'm doing at the moment. Argh, its all so *complicated*

Essentially, there are now no free weekends left until the FA Cup Final.

xpost - oh for god's sake. I'd been looking forward to Superpitcher.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 11:35 (twenty-one years ago)

Ah shit, does Vitalic clash with the Annie/ESG/Superpitcher/Fairley thing then? Fucksticks.

PERFECT!

― BARMS, Wednesday, 9 March 2005 11:37 (twenty-one years ago)

Vitalic is playing here this Thursday but I am DJing at our club. For many I expect it's quite similar to the Superpitcher/Vitalic clash, in London.

― Ronan (Ronan), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 11:45 (twenty-one years ago)

superpitcher is always playing in london. vitalic comes but several times a year.

― pete b. (pete b.), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 11:48 (twenty-one years ago)

i dunon if i'd survive Vitalic a second time but worth a shot, if not the other thing, if not both, somehow

― Sven Bastard (blueski), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 11:50 (twenty-one years ago)

actually i will definitely go to the ESG/Superpitcher/Annie thing, and hope others will too - to the blagmobile!

― Sven Bastard (blueski), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 11:51 (twenty-one years ago)

Me me me!

― Lucretia My Reflection (Lucretia My Reflection), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 12:08 (twenty-one years ago)

aren't they on the Camden Crawl?

― Sven Bastard (blueski), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 12:16 (twenty-one years ago)

I was hoping someone would make that joke, anyway no, they're at the Despondent Lapwing.

Anyway, I'm bored.

― Lucretia My Reflection (Lucretia My Reflection), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 12:21 (twenty-one years ago)

I wish I could be part of this thread for real :-(

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 12:35 (twenty-one years ago)

ahh many good nights had at the Lapwing

― Sven Bastard (blueski), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 12:35 (twenty-one years ago)

― Sven Bastard (blueski), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 12:36 (twenty-one years ago)

ESG!

― alix (alix), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 12:59 (twenty-one years ago)

Steve+Alix+Starry+Barima so far, looking good.

― BARMS, Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:12 (twenty-one years ago)

er er er what is this, an ANTI-VITALIC mob brewing? pah!

― The Lex (The Lex), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:29 (twenty-one years ago)

and Barima - are you coming over tonight or not?

― The Lex (The Lex), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:29 (twenty-one years ago)

i'm hopefully in for the esg thing. off to glasgow the next day, but that shouldn't preclude my attendance.

― lauren (laurenp), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:31 (twenty-one years ago)

Only if you sing Xtina's 'Come On Over, Baby'.

Truth is, it doesn't look like I'll make it. Solly.

x-p with lp

― BARMS, Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:32 (twenty-one years ago)

fyi, esg are one of the best live acts i've ever seen - no offense to vitalic but they render him completely insignificant.

― lauren (laurenp), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:33 (twenty-one years ago)

But will they allow me to dance on stage with them?

― BARMS, Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:39 (twenty-one years ago)

I am Seal Clubbing on Friday, I have just been informed. It would be very nice if people came and supported me.

Everyone else mentioned on this thread renders me insignificant, probably even Stevem playing chess, but we do have some slightly unhinged groupies who dance to every single song every single week.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:44 (twenty-one years ago)

how do you rate their bottoms?

― Sven Bastard (blueski), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:45 (twenty-one years ago)

8 and 6.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:46 (twenty-one years ago)

Haha oh dear.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:47 (twenty-one years ago)

encouraging

― Sven Bastard (blueski), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:49 (twenty-one years ago)

Detail your playlist by names and/or genre, Matthew, and I may see if it dovetails into the non-babysitting prospective plans I have on Friday.

― BARMS, Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:49 (twenty-one years ago)

And, yeah, I need new girls.

― BARMS, Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:50 (twenty-one years ago)

This also means I can go to Optimo next week. Rah!

Playlist = indie - 80s new wave variety, synthpop (also of the 80s variety), occasional noughties haircut indie tune to placate people, electro, early 90s chart dance.

If you come I'll invite my sister.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:53 (twenty-one years ago)

I don't know anything about ESG!

Matt has already pimped out his unborn son to me and now his sister is going to Barima, that man has no shame at all.

― The Lex (The Lex), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:54 (twenty-one years ago)

perhaps i should stay in them, who knows what he'll find me!

i am tempted by seal, as this weekend should be fairly sensible. it is either that or tweeindie at highbury corner with girls in hair slides and balding blokes

― charltonlido (gareth), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:56 (twenty-one years ago)

Steve, I think the very existence of Club Seal was something we didn't factor into our pub convo last night.

Matt, OMG, really? I thought she was taken. Or, worse, is she '8'?

― BARMS, Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:57 (twenty-one years ago)

Anna does a very good impersonation of ESG (tho it should be noted that i have never heard the members of ESG speak) - i think you would like them Lex, and Lauren is to be trusted on these matters

Barima is so hot right now

― Sven Bastard (blueski), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:57 (twenty-one years ago)

This ESG?

Someone has to come to Vitalic. I've just bought a ticket!

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 13:59 (twenty-one years ago)

Barms, no, I did factor it in. like when i said 'no Killers, no Franz, and very little obvious poptimism' (ie basically i don't want anyone to actually attend)

― Sven Bastard (blueski), Wednesday, 9 March 2005 14:00 (twenty-one years ago)

perhaps i should stay in them, who knows what he'll find me!

freudian of the day, incidentally
