sambayabamya.

cozen (Cozen), Tuesday, 12 April 2005 17:32 (twenty-one years ago)

I wouldn't worry about not knowing who Sambayabamba are, since they so bad they are playing in the street outside the venue. Imagine being so bad that are you booked to not be in the venue, AND STILL AGREEING TO DO IT. I bet they're not as good as Murdoch, Jackson, Martin, Cooke and my old upstairs neighbour outside Bowlie.

I'm glad its not just me who doesn't know stuff about anything. I don't care about "cool" (I've just typed "cook" three times whilst trying to type "cool", but I don't mean it Al, honest), but I don't like it when whole big bunches of everything pass me by.

SambaYaBamba - Brazilian Rhythms, Glasgow Style!

Onimo (GerryNemo), Tuesday, 12 April 2005 18:36 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh, God.

Ally C (Ally C), Tuesday, 12 April 2005 18:49 (twenty-one years ago)

Today, Dot to Dot were described in the Metro as "belle and sebastian endorsed".

Tomorrow (in fact, later on today), alcohol permitting, I shall be trying Glasgow more.

ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 14 April 2005 22:25 (twenty-one years ago)

I will try glasgow, more, today.

what time are the festivities?

cozen (Cozen), Friday, 15 April 2005 06:06 (twenty-one years ago)

festivities for the restivities!

RJG (RJG), Friday, 15 April 2005 06:34 (twenty-one years ago)

Wear your endorsement with pride, Dotters!

When will we have Dot to Dot recordings? I'm surprised Mooro isn't distributing them yet. I think his label should be called Professor Mooro Arty.

PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Friday, 15 April 2005 07:11 (twenty-one years ago)

sot to sot.

cozen (Cozen), Friday, 15 April 2005 07:36 (twenty-one years ago)

My several requests to Cookie96 for recorded product have been studiously, lively and steadfastly ignored.

He can dance to his song in a club but I can neither dance nor sing, nor get my pained ass up to a place to hear him play.

Sigh.

He is just too big a cool pop star for me now, I guess.

Mooro (Mooro), Friday, 15 April 2005 10:31 (twenty-one years ago)

Our time will come, Mooro.

PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Friday, 15 April 2005 11:59 (twenty-one years ago)

doors open at 8. don't be late. or you just might not get in, what with all this crazy metro publicity and hype. woo! plus, you'd miss my amazing DJ debut. god forbid...

dahlin (dahlin), Friday, 15 April 2005 12:02 (twenty-one years ago)

I am trying Glasgow mayer next week. I think I get over on Friday, and go home on Monday evening. Maybe Optimo on Sunday too? Any other stuff on?

I'm looking forward to it.

Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 15 April 2005 12:14 (twenty-one years ago)

jed_ (jed), Friday, 15 April 2005 12:28 (twenty-one years ago)

cozen (Cozen), Friday, 15 April 2005 12:29 (twenty-one years ago)

stirmonster (stirmonster), Friday, 15 April 2005 12:31 (twenty-one years ago)

oh the "maybe" was only directed at you Glaswegians, I certainly intend to go, Saturday may be a day of R and R.

Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 15 April 2005 12:34 (twenty-one years ago)

I found out.

ronan, ISS.

cozen (Cozen), Friday, 15 April 2005 12:39 (twenty-one years ago)

wolf eyes, ronan, and optimo, all in the one weekend!

cozen (Cozen), Friday, 15 April 2005 12:40 (twenty-one years ago)

Glasgow is going to break the band for the next 3 weekends.

jed_ (jed), Friday, 15 April 2005 12:41 (twenty-one years ago)

It should be noted that Tim H arrives in Glasgow on 22nd April.

Madchen (Madchen), Friday, 15 April 2005 12:43 (twenty-one years ago)

Ah that's great! Tim H too!

Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 15 April 2005 13:01 (twenty-one years ago)

all this weekend needs now is ferrero rocher!

cozen (Cozen), Friday, 15 April 2005 13:06 (twenty-one years ago)

toblerone carte d'or

Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 15 April 2005 13:19 (twenty-one years ago)

Don't forget that all Popkins activities must be planned around a possible trip to Carlisle! Who are playing at Burton this week, I believe, so they'll be bouyed up by a comfortable victory prior to the Exetr game.

Oh look, I missed an 'e' out of Exeter! Now they look like a Primal Scream B side.

PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Friday, 15 April 2005 13:54 (twenty-one years ago)

They should make XTR t-shirts. They'd make a fortune.

Madchen (Madchen), Friday, 15 April 2005 14:08 (twenty-one years ago)

so, what's the 411?

jed_ (jed), Friday, 15 April 2005 15:53 (twenty-one years ago)

lauren and teamy are at stereo, waiting for a friend.

ally and me and cathy and patrick are in THE GOAT but there's nowhere to sit.

bot to bot are on stage at 9:30. does anyone, except them, care?


just kidding.

ally is crying, now.

RJG at THE GOAT, Friday, 15 April 2005 17:59 (twenty-one years ago)

awww...damn the tube strike :(

sarahluv, Friday, 15 April 2005 22:19 (twenty-one years ago)

Ally is the Bez of Dot to Dot. Cathy's new hair is ace. No-one came to Pin-up Nights but you all lose because it means you didn't get to dance to Mr Blue Sky. We gave up on it eventually, went downstairs to the real Fury Murrys and danced to Guns'n'Roses and Tiffany and Madonna and stuff instead.

Cozen, if you see this, I have a great big stinking hangover, but I may still be going for a hair-of-the-dog type recovery pint. I'll phone you if I don't die before then.

ailsa (ailsa), Saturday, 16 April 2005 08:23 (twenty-one years ago)

thanks for the mobile broadcast, ailsa!

ken c (ken c), Saturday, 16 April 2005 08:36 (twenty-one years ago)

Thanks, ailsa. I think I have decided to like my hair, or at least to stop whining about it. Although when I woke up this morning it looked scarily like ihttp://www.gokuboso.com/blog/archives/chucky.jpg

Cathy (Cathy), Saturday, 16 April 2005 08:55 (twenty-one years ago)

my phone died, ailsa.

I'm sorry I couldn't receive your call, if you called.

cozen (Cozen), Saturday, 16 April 2005 11:03 (twenty-one years ago)

i want to see Cathy's hair!

ken c (ken c), Saturday, 16 April 2005 11:05 (twenty-one years ago)

I washed it and now I look like this again.

Cathy (Cathy), Saturday, 16 April 2005 11:14 (twenty-one years ago)

The upside is that Ally Cook is a very lovely man, today.

Passive Little Mooro (Mooro), Saturday, 16 April 2005 19:07 (twenty-one years ago)

I see how long this thread is and feel like trying Glasgow again, even.

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Saturday, 16 April 2005 22:33 (twenty-one years ago)

I didn't mean he looked like Bez, rather that his role is to dance inconsquentially shaking a tambourine whilst others do the difficult stuff. (this may only be for one song, however, he does do stuff the rest of the time).

Cozen, I texted you after the match to apologise for not phoning you before it. You'll find out if your phone resurrects itself. I didn't know it had died, my condolences.

ailsa (ailsa), Sunday, 17 April 2005 11:06 (twenty-one years ago)

http://www.kasule.co.uk/kasuleadvert.jpg

I might be trying this, in Glasgow.

Onimo (GerryNemo), Sunday, 17 April 2005 11:26 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm trying the extreme music from Finland next Friday myself.

DV (dirtyvicar), Sunday, 17 April 2005 12:20 (twenty-one years ago)

I would like to go to that. But then I would also like to go to the other thing, RJG has told me.

I do sing a chorus too, on that song. It's not completely inconsequential. I can't do difficult things.

Ally C (Ally C), Sunday, 17 April 2005 16:27 (twenty-one years ago)

Yes you can, you can spell inconsequential, which is more than I can manage, apparently.

ailsa (ailsa), Sunday, 17 April 2005 19:58 (twenty-one years ago)

I met Cozen at Dolly Mixture. He was rather freaked out!
That was a cool night. Three cheers for Sharon and her team and Dot To Dot!

Stew (stew s), Sunday, 17 April 2005 21:30 (twenty-one years ago)

I didn't meet Lauren at Dolly Mixture, but I stood next to her for a bit without knowing who she was, and RJG said "Have you met Lauren" but she left. Oh well.

ailsa (ailsa), Sunday, 17 April 2005 21:37 (twenty-one years ago)

it was nice to meet you, stew.

I was a little freaked out, but good freaked.

it was nice to meet you, too, lauren.

hi nick!

cozen (Cozen), Monday, 18 April 2005 09:28 (twenty-one years ago)

thank you for the book. it made the ride home that much more pleasant.

at this point, i fear that i'll never meet jed.

lauren (laurenp), Monday, 18 April 2005 09:58 (twenty-one years ago)

It is remarkable and good that Dot to Dot get so much better as time goes by without ever actually hearing them. I feel sorry for thsoe of you who have heard them and cannot share in my joy and amazement at their improvement.

PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Monday, 18 April 2005 10:44 (twenty-one years ago)

I have got an mp3, of Dot to Dot!

PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Monday, 18 April 2005 12:55 (twenty-one years ago)

Go on, tell them all you described it as

"superior jingle-jangle with a manic edge."


Some cookie96 fans would probably prefer their edges more Manc than Manics.
