I hate the Arches. I have my reasons. Grimly, you'd fit right in at the next Girlie Weekender in Dublin. Sick In Bins is what we do.

But you owe it at least for that pretty picture, surely?

― Ally C (Ally C), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 07:09 (twenty years ago)

No, I owe Beverley, who took it.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 08:28 (twenty years ago)

I don't think you're giving due credit, here.

― Ally C (Ally C), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 08:39 (twenty years ago)

In response to two ilXorZ not having money till payday*, I have slipped my trip by a week and will now be in Glasgow 5th till the 9th.

I know of no plans, but I will make sure I get out. Best chance of success is probably the Monday night.

Do your magic, Glasgow, and decide on a pub.

*This is a lie. My contractor's subcontractor can't keep to programme.

Saturday - we are having a flatwarming party. Everyone is welcome, of course.

Sunday - Jens, yes. Also Marceline on an indie panel answering questions with Stephen Pastel! Quite ridiculous. Then Optimo. Hope Jens does not play too late as Optimo will be BUSY.

bus from london to glasgow takes about 8 hours. (there are fun overnight ones, too, if you are good at sleeping on a chair it's a great option cos it's like you haven't wasted any time commuting)

Well, my friend says he could be up for this, so we might do Sep 11-13.

Does Stirmonster read this thread?

"Optimo DJs" were going to be playing San Francisco later this year, but now the dates seem to have disappeared! What happened?

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:31 (twenty years ago)

sometimes but not often. he may well do if he reads the referral logs to echatio (if that's what you call them).

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:33 (twenty years ago)

have you heard the Gavin and Delia record, jed?

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:34 (twenty years ago)

no, have you?

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:35 (twenty years ago)

well that's exciting!

― cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:35 (twenty years ago)

yes i have.

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:36 (twenty years ago)

isn't it!

how?

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:37 (twenty years ago)

... and are you sharing?

: )

― cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:39 (twenty years ago)

did u slsk?

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:40 (twenty years ago)

I am on slsk, if that's what you meant

― cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:42 (twenty years ago)

I didn't get it from slsk but I am sharing it. I haven't been able to hear the whole thing yet but what I did hear was good and makes me wish I had a better stereo. Actually I don't have a stereo at all.

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:42 (twenty years ago)

i can't work slsk.

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:45 (twenty years ago)

but i have a good stereo!

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:45 (twenty years ago)

have you tried ssX (soulseeX)?

that's what I use, without any problems

except I had to open some ports to listen, I think

I get a bit vague on ports

― cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:46 (twenty years ago)

It's not hard, cozen figured it out!

xp-I would happily trade use of slsk for a good stereo!

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:46 (twenty years ago)

cozen I got your messages on slsk but days after you sent them because I switched to SSx and I can't figure out how it works.

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:47 (twenty years ago)

you homo

― cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:48 (twenty years ago)

no, actually I'm "nordicskilla"

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:49 (twenty years ago)

what's glasgow's best building?

what's on Sauciehall street? Did there used to be a Saucy hall there?

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:53 (twenty years ago)

sauchiehall street is the name of Ivor Cutler's pet cow.

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 24 August 2005 21:58 (twenty years ago)

adam - yes i do read this thread from time to time. it was only ever very vague that we would be playing san francisco,

― dahlin (dahlin), Thursday, 25 August 2005 08:04 (twenty years ago)

this weekend sounds like it's going to be a great one, but i have to work. booo! be sure and have a drink for me on saturday, glasgow. it's my birthday, and i'll be far, far away from home.

― michael grant (michael digby grant), Thursday, 25 August 2005 10:34 (twenty years ago)

I want to be on a pastel with Stephen Panel too.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Thursday, 25 August 2005 10:38 (twenty years ago)

awww poor michael. happy birthday lovey!

― dahlin (dahlin), Thursday, 25 August 2005 10:38 (twenty years ago)

Hurrah for aldo's work meaning I don't have to raid the petty cash tin at work for booze money on Monday! My pub suggestion = not the Drum and Monkey (non-smoking now, innit, so opportunities to laugh at lapsed ex-smokers gagging for cigarettes limited) and not the Lansdowne because we've been there twice recently and it will bring back horrible memories of (1) being stalked by the paparazzi and (2) the Artmedia Bratislava horrorshow.

Other than that, I have no idea. What about that Station Bar place near grimly fiendish's work?

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 25 August 2005 17:29 (twenty years ago)

I think I might be an asshopper.

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Thursday, 25 August 2005 17:57 (twenty years ago)

APPLICATION DENIED

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 25 August 2005 17:59 (twenty years ago)

I don't know if I can do this now, I am bad at making decisions.

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Thursday, 25 August 2005 18:03 (twenty years ago)

I would like to meet you

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 25 August 2005 18:06 (twenty years ago)

I'm shy

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Thursday, 25 August 2005 18:10 (twenty years ago)

actually, it's that my schedule would be 4 days in london, 3 days in berlin, one day in london, two days in glasgow, 3 days in london.

is that...too mad?

or not mad enough?

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Thursday, 25 August 2005 18:33 (twenty years ago)

I should post, on this thread, more

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 25 August 2005 18:39 (twenty years ago)

hello RJG

: )

do you really get e-mail notifications when someone posts to this thread?

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 25 August 2005 18:43 (twenty years ago)

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 25 August 2005 18:44 (twenty years ago)

is that true?

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Thursday, 25 August 2005 18:44 (twenty years ago)

is it?

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Thursday, 25 August 2005 18:44 (twenty years ago)

i'm shy too.
