Impromptu anybody, Ken, not just ILX person. And I meant in London. I have often bumped into people in my home village and even places as big as Barcelona and Glasgow, but never London. I thought it was impossible.

Incidentally, I think of you, Ken, as a SinisterXor.

I bumped into the Pinefox in Russell Square last week. So that's another Random Impromptu Sinisters Sighting then.

oh i am still a sinisterx0r really deep down. (actually i am probably still the most frequent poster on the list)

― ken c (ken c), Tuesday, 26 April 2005 14:21 (twenty-one years ago)

I have never Impromptuly Sighted either an ILxer OR a Sinisterxor. I briefly thought I saw Chewshabadoo at a poetry slam the other night, but it wasn't him in the end.

However when I was in Cambridge with non-Impromptu ILxers, I did Impromptuly Sight two OTHER people I knew.

I wonder if you have beaten me yet, Ken. I hope so.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Tuesday, 26 April 2005 14:26 (twenty-one years ago)

Have I stumbled into some strange ILX S&M thread or what?

― Pradaismus (Dada), Tuesday, 26 April 2005 14:31 (twenty-one years ago)

stuart and murdoch

three weeks pass...

I almost collided with The Pinefox on Wednesday evening. Again, near Russell Square. He was eating an apple.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Friday, 20 May 2005 10:42 (twenty-one years ago)

what is this *apple*?

― charltonlido (gareth), Friday, 20 May 2005 10:45 (twenty-one years ago)

Damn! I forgot to say that I saw Tim in Crystal Palace last weekend! He was rushing to the pub to meet his folks.

I saw o.nate at the 6th ave/14th street subway station today. He was coming back from record shopping in Williamsburg at the store where DAEREST RECORD STORE GURL used to work. He had some free jazz. I was with DAEREST RECORD STORE coming home back to my house from hers. I like o. nate. I am just not very good at making conversation! sorry!

― Ian John50n (orion), Tuesday, 31 May 2005 00:17 (twenty-one years ago)

Hi Ian- It was nice seeing you too. I also ran into Hstencil on the L train a few days ago coming home from work. That must be the ILXer train line.

― o. nate (onate), Tuesday, 31 May 2005 00:21 (twenty-one years ago)

These are the records I was carrying:

what have you bought recently? (apr/may '05)

― o. nate (onate), Tuesday, 31 May 2005 00:24 (twenty-one years ago)

Nate, I assume you made your flight in time last Tuesday?

― Rock Hardy (Rock Hardy), Tuesday, 31 May 2005 00:31 (twenty-one years ago)

Yes, luckily the flight was delayed due to some air-controller mishap in Philly, so all was well. I ran into Dan later, because his gate was next to mine. Unfortunately, his delay was a bit worse, since he had to make a connection. It was also somewhat funny to hear over the PA system a voice saying "Passenger Tetsuo Yamasuka please report to gate 24 immediately" - so apparently we weren't the only ones cutting it close.

― o. nate (onate), Tuesday, 31 May 2005 01:02 (twenty-one years ago)

the l train is the swell train and i don't want to hear any of you indies complain.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 31 May 2005 01:10 (twenty-one years ago)

o. nate i don't live on the l, i was just going to daddy's.

― hstencil (hstencil), Tuesday, 31 May 2005 01:13 (twenty-one years ago)

I saw Alan and Emma on the number 7 bus yesterday near Paddington station.

― jel -- (jel), Tuesday, 31 May 2005 15:17 (twenty-one years ago)

Do ILX lookalikes count? Because I saw someone who looked like Matt DC outside Celtic Park on Sunday, then later in the pub I saw someone who looked like jel, then yesterday I saw someone who looked like someone else who I only know from photos but I can't remember who it was but I thought it was weird that I had seen three people who looked like people I only "know" from photos.

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 31 May 2005 16:09 (twenty-one years ago)

a girl on the bus today looked like roxymuzak

― ken c (ken c), Tuesday, 31 May 2005 16:13 (twenty-one years ago)

I saw Marianna and Rob Bolton on Friday afternoon on Exmouth Market after I picked up my contact lenses.

― Dave B (daveb), Tuesday, 31 May 2005 16:14 (twenty-one years ago)

Donut and I did not see Gygax in Las Vegas. We cried. (This might not be true.)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 31 May 2005 16:14 (twenty-one years ago)

I saw nabisco at the Roxy on Sunday night!

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Tuesday, 31 May 2005 17:07 (twenty-one years ago)

I remembered the third lookalike. It was Tuomas, in the Royal Bank of Scotland in Paisley at lunchtime today. Except, obviously it wasn't him as the bloke was on his own with no beautiful Finnish girls in tow. And he was in Paisley.

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 31 May 2005 17:09 (twenty-one years ago)

Mark Sinker! In the Shakespeare! Last Monday!

Do ILX lookalikes count?

Oh Crikey - I had a five minute conversation with someone with the firm impression I was talking to Charlie No.4. I was not.

― Anna (Anna), Monday, 6 June 2005 08:42 (twenty-one years ago)

here's a freaky one: i think i've SAT NEXT to ken c on a bus, the 134, once. but a strange fear gripped me and i just couldn't ask.

― N_RQ, Monday, 6 June 2005 08:43 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh I just remembered, I think I saw ken c driving a car - is such a thing possible? Or desirable for that matter?

― Vicious Cop Kills Gentle Fool (Dada), Monday, 6 June 2005 08:48 (twenty-one years ago)

i met dan regan!

― charleston charge (chaki), Monday, 6 June 2005 09:02 (twenty-one years ago)

ken c does drive a car. ive been in that car. he does sort of drive it, though in the wrong direction and without really knowing where he is going, as far as i can tell

― charltonlido (gareth), Monday, 6 June 2005 13:59 (twenty-one years ago)

Ken once gave me a lift all the way from London to Glasgow (and back again, through a furious thunderstorm) and his driving was impeccable.

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Monday, 6 June 2005 14:02 (twenty-one years ago)

i think i saw unklecow joseph at the lcd soundsystem show.

last weekend in Vancouver, my friend and I ran into Dave Q at a convenience store in central Granville... well, we didn't RUN INTO HIM.. I saw him, said "HEY!", and introduced everybody to each other.

I was taking part too! I dunno, it was right at the end of the night and you looked as if you were leaving plus I was probably trying to impress some woman or other at the time...

― Dadaismus (Dada), Monday, 27 June 2005 11:41 (twenty years ago)

I saw Momus at an art opening / rooftop BBQ / bluegrass jam on Washington Street last night. Shook his head at the leftover room-temp American burgers.

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Friday, 8 July 2005 13:33 (twenty years ago)

Actually, they looked quite tasty. You should have said hello, you snobbish hipster!

― Momus (Momus), Friday, 8 July 2005 13:51 (twenty years ago)

Sorry, I probably would just have asked for absolution for buying a used copy of "Forbidden Software Timemachine" in San Francisco last month.

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Friday, 8 July 2005 13:58 (twenty years ago)

Absolution absolutely granted!

― Momus (Momus), Friday, 8 July 2005 14:34 (twenty years ago)

DR MORBIUS TODAY ON 1st AVENUE!!!

DDB LATER TODAY DRIVING A CAR (WTF?!?!?) DOWN GATES AVE IN MY HOOD!!!

― hstencil (hstencil), Saturday, 9 July 2005 19:52 (twenty years ago)

From the bus window last night, hstencil walking east on 14th Street. The black Pedro Martinez t-shirt served as positive ID.

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Monday, 18 July 2005 13:04 (twenty years ago)

Weirdly, Ben and I also saw stence over the weekend, wearing white pants to brunch with an apple-cheeked miss. At that place in Wburg, Edith's or E-something, anyway. Sadly they were out of sausages and gravy but we cobbled together breakfasts involving cocktails, instead.

― Laurel, Monday, 18 July 2005 20:21 (twenty years ago)

wasn't me morbs! last night i was in williamsburg, wearing a solid black t-shirt! i was at enid's sunday tho. damn fine bloody mary(s)!

― hstencil (hstencil), Tuesday, 19 July 2005 03:11 (twenty years ago)

for the record i can't remember what days pedro starts now so i haven't worn the shirt in a while.

― hstencil (hstencil), Tuesday, 19 July 2005 03:12 (twenty years ago)

God knows who else I've mistaken. Are those really my relations?
