deerhoof are good live

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 10 October 2005 14:29 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, I saw them play almost 2 years ago in Edinburgh. They were tight and funny. The new album has moments of absolute genius so I'm really excited about it.

― hmmm (hmmm), Monday, 10 October 2005 14:40 (twenty years ago)

I'll be at Deerhoof too. Hurrah! They were tip top at ATP in Feb.

― Stew (stew s), Monday, 10 October 2005 15:15 (twenty years ago)

And they were even better tonight. Fucking incredible.

― Stew (stew s), Monday, 10 October 2005 23:37 (twenty years ago)

I thought the last 2 songs were really incredible. The rest, I wasn't conviced about. The songs from the new album seemed to have difficulty translating to a live performance. Also, the sound in mono is really quiet.

― hmmm (hmmm), Tuesday, 11 October 2005 07:35 (twenty years ago)

Quiet? I had my earplugs in for about half of it. It was fine.

― Stew (stew s), Tuesday, 11 October 2005 09:04 (twenty years ago)

hmmmm, I don't think I'm particularly deaf. I was standing under the dome so that may have had an effect.

― hmmm (hmmm), Tuesday, 11 October 2005 09:15 (twenty years ago)

I'm with hmmm, when I saw them in Bristol last week the last two songs were amazing but the rest of it was only OK (and I really enjoyed them at ATP). It was very quiet here as well.

I saw Deerhoof play a couple of years ago. They were boring.

details of the sounds of myanmar record I was talking about

― cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 12 October 2005 07:29 (twenty years ago)

Hi Glasgow.

Wet isn't it?

I am jealous of yr Instal festival on the weekend and sorry I will be in London rather than grooving to the out-there sounds.

― alext (alext), Wednesday, 12 October 2005 08:09 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, I got f***** soaked on the way to work today... Again.

― KeefW (kmw), Wednesday, 12 October 2005 17:06 (twenty years ago)

I wish I hadn´t missed the Russian FAP.

I love you, Glasgow!

― Cathy (Cathy), Wednesday, 12 October 2005 17:50 (twenty years ago)

it is really great, stir, my favourite is track 3...

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 13 October 2005 07:19 (twenty years ago)

I give in... would anyone be so kind... can a glasgow ilxor with a full copy of lost season 1 make me a copy, please?

in the meanwhile, I'll see if I can get the start to season 2 through the usual channels... I can't watch telly programs weekly anymore... torrents and DVD has ruined me

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 13 October 2005 19:25 (twenty years ago)

WILL TRAVEL FOR LOST

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 13 October 2005 19:25 (twenty years ago)

I would (and will) offer, but I bet someone else more efficient actually comes through with the goods before me.

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 13 October 2005 19:27 (twenty years ago)

I have lost

so much

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 13 October 2005 23:46 (twenty years ago)

A new month is approaching and my mind turns to Big Dinner: can Glasgow ILX manage two in two months? The Greek thread is making my eyes water. Shall we continue our culinary odyssey at Konaki?

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:30 (twenty years ago)

Somewhere new please.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:34 (twenty years ago)

your new flat?

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:35 (twenty years ago)

room

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:41 (twenty years ago)

Not my new rooms. No one enters my new rooms.

New Year, yes. I was thinking about that yesterday. I'm going to be up here, I think.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:42 (twenty years ago)

joanna blythman said it was sexy and seductive

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:42 (twenty years ago)

I don't want to go to room

48's bistro

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:43 (twenty years ago)

travelling up then isn't exactly a bargain, but i was expecting that to be the case.

― lauren (laurenp), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:43 (twenty years ago)

I liked it last time and anyway it's only new for the people who went out for Cathy's birthday and anyway I've been told that Antonious is inferior.

I am going to be here for Hogmanay too.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:44 (twenty years ago)

optimo espookio

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:46 (twenty years ago)

Room pisses me off. There's Glasgow's really smart, elegant top-end hotel, 10 Devonshire Gardens, wins awards and that, Clooney stays there. Then the whole look gets ruined by a tacky (lop-sided) sign outside for Room saying virtually: "Come on in! Hen parties welcome, children's menu available, Happy Hour all day Wednesdays!"

It's bringing down the area.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:46 (twenty years ago)

I might text the Metro about it.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:46 (twenty years ago)

We were asked to consider Room's rather unimaginative Christmas menu at work the other day. I think we're just going to one of the hotels up the end of Argyle Street now.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:48 (twenty years ago)

Also, its logo is really naff.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:49 (twenty years ago)

Hate the Room!

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 20 October 2005 12:50 (twenty years ago)

easyjet or ryan air??

― lauren (laurenp), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:00 (twenty years ago)

Easyjet!

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:03 (twenty years ago)

room sounds kinda contrived.

we should go to the greek golden kebab on the south side. and no, not just because it's a bawhair away from my house.

failing that, we should just go to the PUB.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:04 (twenty years ago)

room's logo looks like a weirdo's knuckleduster

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:06 (twenty years ago)

A mutant's handcuffs.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:07 (twenty years ago)

Haha, Grimly thinks he can tempt ilx sarf of the river. Ooh, but there is that good-looking Kurdish place on Pollokshaws Road which I want to try.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:13 (twenty years ago)

I don't want to pull a good-looking Kurd. Actually maybe I do. I was assuming it was all men, for some reason. How sexist. Or is it homophobic? Or racist?

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 20 October 2005 13:14 (twenty years ago)

Hang, on. We're not going out on the pull, are we? I'm getting confused with the conversation I am having with my colleagues about our Christmas do.
