Cool, sounds like a plan. Yay, Skeleton Bob, they're a great wee band. You should check out Jode's new DJ slot at the CCA on Thursday. It's called Buckaroo and he plays lots of country and folk. Ace!

I am sad to report that I will not be trying Glasgow this year. It breaks my heart, but it just wasn't meant to be. :(

Thank you for all your help, though, glasgow people!

I will make my very best effort to try it soon, though!

― Adam In Real Life (nordicskilla), Sunday, 28 August 2005 20:24 (twenty years ago)

I had considered going to Mono earlier today, but the thought of Momus, Stuart Braithwaite, Stephen Pastel and Isobel Campbell in one small pub was a little too much for me.

it was fucking amazing. well, jens was. *swoon*
momus WAS there! with an eyepatch! ha! he was on my bus. i had no idea. he left early tho.

― dahlin (dahlin), Sunday, 28 August 2005 23:02 (twenty years ago)

cozen why are you in?

― jed_ (jed), Sunday, 28 August 2005 23:18 (twenty years ago)

Hey Dahlin, that's the Plan B people put to bed and me about to crash. What a lovely night. Jens was indeed swoonsome musically speaking. His songs and performance really touched me: so warm, romantic and lovely. Aaaahh. Momus was indeed there but left before we plucked up the courage to say hello. Oy vey!

― Stew (stew s), Monday, 29 August 2005 00:17 (twenty years ago)

Hey did anyone try the Pixies more in Edinburgh last night? It was pretty excellent, although I had been a bit dubious beforehand.

― alext (alext), Monday, 29 August 2005 06:36 (twenty years ago)

my friend, fergie, did

phoned me up, during "where is my mind?", I think!

I said hello, to momus, last night.

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 09:24 (twenty years ago)

i got a text from my pal phil saying: "debas**er!!!!"

what did momus say? did he hail the might of RJG, fellow elder statesman of ILX, or did he just peer at you and do that slightly funny chin thing he does?

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Monday, 29 August 2005 09:28 (twenty years ago)

he said "ah, you're RJG. I think we may have crossed swords, in the past, but probably agreed about other things, too" and that we must do one of the impromptu ILXer sightings things

he was borrowing a chair, from my table

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 09:34 (twenty years ago)

so, a bit of both

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 09:36 (twenty years ago)

you had discourse

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 29 August 2005 09:47 (twenty years ago)

so are any of you going to DinosaurJr tonite in the end? I haven´t heard anything good from their Benicassim show...

― olenska (olenska), Monday, 29 August 2005 09:50 (twenty years ago)

I am going to go to the quiz at the liquid ship, tonight, I think

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 09:52 (twenty years ago)

I tried to blag free tickets. It didn't work. Anyway, I feel ill and have been up all night vomiting so wouldn't have been able to go anyway.

We need REPORTING BACK from the party! Did anyone pee in a corner? Did anyone turn up? (Scotstvo, I didn't get your text until Sunday morning and I don't have any credit in my phone to reply anyway, sorry).

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 29 August 2005 09:54 (twenty years ago)

our party?

lots of people turned up

it was quite civilised (no peeing, that I saw, at all)

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 09:59 (twenty years ago)

Yes, your party. Sorry I didn't come, I was too lazy to be bothered moving, and also talking to people. I'm glad it was good.

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 29 August 2005 10:08 (twenty years ago)

it was civilised! there were SNACKS and plastic cups, arranged neatly on a table!
and the place was CLEAN!
except ally's room which smelled like boy. yuck

― dahlin (dahlin), Monday, 29 August 2005 10:19 (twenty years ago)

where boy = fish

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 29 August 2005 10:21 (twenty years ago)

where fish = don't ask

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 10:27 (twenty years ago)

This all sounds very non-148-like (xpost - I meant about the snacks and tidiness, not the odd smells). It may have confused me. Actually I don't think I've ever been to one of your parties. I don't really *do* parties.

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 29 August 2005 10:28 (twenty years ago)

Where don't ask = no really, don't ask.

I liked the civilisation. Luckily there was a big crazy party across the street which people who wanted that kind of thing were quite happy to go to after spending a while being civilised at ours.

― Ally C (Ally C), Monday, 29 August 2005 10:31 (twenty years ago)

148 was usually pretty tidy, for parties, and we had snacks, a few times

I think, unfortunately, people often confuse dilapidation for untidyness

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 10:32 (twenty years ago)

I think I may be guilty of that. And I really can't now recall ever having been at one of your parties, but I'm sure I must have been at at least one.

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 29 August 2005 10:34 (twenty years ago)

I saw someone pee in a bottle at the party.

― Cathy (Cathy), Monday, 29 August 2005 11:00 (twenty years ago)

Take that back.

― Ally C (Ally C), Monday, 29 August 2005 11:03 (twenty years ago)

...to the shop for 20p?

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 29 August 2005 11:08 (twenty years ago)

The LOST fairy was here during the night and left presents for the four of you.

Had I been awake, I would have asked why she couldn't have left them at your houses.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Monday, 29 August 2005 11:19 (twenty years ago)

GOOD! Because that stinky nasty cricket over-ran on Sunday and meant they cancelled the repeat of the episode I didn't see on Wednesday because I was out bouzing, and I have teh fear of downloading stuff myself.

Also, thanks! Have you thought of a PUB yet?

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 29 August 2005 11:34 (twenty years ago)

I'm happy to do whatever Glasgow wants. If downstairs at KT's is the best venue then that's OK.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Monday, 29 August 2005 11:40 (twenty years ago)

why not? it's quite good down there. especially when there's a gig on upstairs and it's empty :)

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Monday, 29 August 2005 11:46 (twenty years ago)

oh, I had forgotten it was BH over there. And here I am suffering to stay awake at work. madchen, are you about? Talked yesterday seriously with boyfr aboud trying Glasgow soon

― olenska (olenska), Monday, 29 August 2005 12:53 (twenty years ago)

I am here, but confused as to your identity, mystery person!

― Mädchen (Madchen), Monday, 29 August 2005 13:04 (twenty years ago)

Try @r@ntx@ s@nz g@rci@

― Mooro (Mooro), Monday, 29 August 2005 14:12 (twenty years ago)

Madchen, the "big" day approacheth and I have NOTHING TO WEAR! Let's go shopping! I will buy you lunch/booze/presents in return. I went briefly with my mum, got as far as Wallis and H&M and got teh shopping fear. Please come hold my hand and make me buy nice things.

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 29 August 2005 15:20 (twenty years ago)

what, we all have to buy new clothes for aldo's visit?

i might wash my pants, i guess.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Monday, 29 August 2005 15:22 (twenty years ago)

Just keep the soup out of your 'tache and you'll be fine.

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Monday, 29 August 2005 15:45 (twenty years ago)

I went for a trim and he gave me a haircut

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 29 August 2005 15:49 (twenty years ago)

fancy that

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 15:55 (twenty years ago)

on nick's recommendation, I am going to try COBALT, soon

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 29 August 2005 15:56 (twenty years ago)

cobalt? the metallic element, number 27 on the periodic table, with similarities to nickel, from which a blue pigment is derived?

or a new bar, the appearance of which - because i am rapidly becoming quite old and sad - has passed me by?
