gareth have you got your acid on sea ticket yet? they're probably sold out now!

The Lex (The Lex), Monday, 7 August 2006 11:02 (seventeen years ago) link

Bangface does look great but I think my friend would go mental after ten minutes and cry.

(Acid on Sea tix only from Rough Trade Covent Garden now)

Raw Patrick (Raw Patrick), Monday, 7 August 2006 11:11 (seventeen years ago) link

acid on sea - is this where you're trapped in a "party boat" for hours?? ugh

Euai Kapaui (tracerhand), Monday, 7 August 2006 11:40 (seventeen years ago) link

two weeks pass...
Bank holiday around the corner and not a peep in this thread.

I'm probably going to check out Carl Craig and Beyer @ Fabric on Saturday. Then carnival on Sunday, followed by Lasermagnetic and Underline. Not sure about Monday.

rchinn (rchinn), Wednesday, 23 August 2006 18:18 (seventeen years ago) link

i'm in norwich for the weekend :-(

Oh! There you are, rolling dancing thread.

Shoegazing! Tonight! The Legion on Old Street! Any takers?

I don't know why I always post this on the rolling dancing thread, not the rolling gigging thread. But TSM are DJ-ing afterwards, so you know that we will stick around and Tanz, Tanz, Tanz to the Krauty goodness. Come vit us, darlink. It vill be kosmische! No, wait, it won't be Kosmische, it will be Sonic Cathedrals. But still.

I need somewhere in London to take geeks for dancing on 9th September. It needs to be cheap and scruffy and play music you can dance to but isn't too hardcore - indie/rock would do - maybe Camden? Should I post this on the Camden thread? I haven't been dancing in London for many, many years.

Zora (Zora), Friday, 25 August 2006 08:36 (seventeen years ago) link

for me - TDK on saturday. possibly lost on sunday but have been feeling a tiny bit under the weather this week so it might be unwise, also have not got ticket yet either. monday - picnic and drinking in the park then off to 93 ft east for bank holiday lovelife. followed, maybe, by spontaneous t bar action. tue and wed OFF WORK HURRAH.

The Lex (The Lex), Friday, 25 August 2006 08:46 (seventeen years ago) link

i guess the mulletover part of crosscentral is the best, though cant say im totally overenthused about ellen allien and alex smoke.

garnier/mills at lost is looking a lot more tempting. im kind of otne now

-- (688), Friday, 25 August 2006 09:17 (seventeen years ago) link

Dude, whatever you do, don't hold out for Lost and then realise no one's going! Don't let this one pass you by!

I think Druzzis looks better than the Mulletover part, although I'm hoping Optimo/Smagghe will be on earlier than Ellen Allien. Alex Smoke can fuck off. I don't particularly care though, I'm happy just wandering and dancing to whatever sounds best.

Matt DC (Matt DC), Friday, 25 August 2006 09:26 (seventeen years ago) link

there are people going to Lost i think.

Konal Doddz (blueski), Friday, 25 August 2006 09:27 (seventeen years ago) link

i assume lost won't sell out? if i go - i really want to but as i said, not really at 100% this week - i'll be relying on tickets on the door

The Lex (The Lex), Friday, 25 August 2006 09:29 (seventeen years ago) link

yea yea, i know, it was a minor waver you are right about optimo, i forgot about that. druzzis is probably better. i think i thought the mulletover part was going to be more kind of hacke/barnes than it appears to be.

anyway, there is likely to be afterparty action, im sure:)

-- (688), Friday, 25 August 2006 09:31 (seventeen years ago) link

G, call me later.

Ed (dali), Friday, 25 August 2006 09:58 (seventeen years ago) link

My two cents, drop TDK and Lost. Garnier is hit-and-miss, Mills will bang out loop techno in that dull SEOne venue.

Druzzi's is a good call. Sunday could be the biggest possibly be the biggest party day ever.

rchinn (rchinn), Friday, 25 August 2006 17:04 (seventeen years ago) link

im never really sure about these kind of things, but there is a seed records allnighter on oct 21, in a converted cinema in elephants castle

this thread is strangely silent about this weekend!

free compilation of stuff related to this night http://www.bleep.com/?label=Soviet

I do keep saying this but, I so wish these kind of line-ups (not just Soviet organised) would include a tiny bit of something lighter on the side (okay maybe this would be Arovane and Cursor Minor here?), it doesn't have to be a completely lame 'chill-out' room, just a little levity. 50% of that line up makes me smile, but the other 50% of yet more possible gnarliness just makes me frown. Anyway, not meaning to judge from afar just annoyed that I don't feel able to really justify a trip to London town for this.

just say no to individuality (fandango), Thursday, 7 September 2006 10:47 (seventeen years ago) link

i'm going home this weekend but if anyone's up for action on friday my friend john (aka datassette) (emily's bro) is playing at http://wonktronica.com/ tomorrow...

The Lex (The Lex), Thursday, 7 September 2006 10:51 (seventeen years ago) link

No interest in that Soviet thing at all, sorry.

This weekend = Cansei de Ser Sexy gig at 93ft East on Friday, being good on Saturday due to wedding on Sunday.

Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 7 September 2006 10:58 (seventeen years ago) link

There is old persons' (i.e. indie) dance music at Spiral Scratch on Saturday. I may go to that, if I can find anyone to go with (as is the refrain of my life lately...)

Angel In Love With Her Own Pedals (kate), Thursday, 7 September 2006 10:59 (seventeen years ago) link

I could be up for the soviet thing.

Ed (dali), Thursday, 7 September 2006 11:02 (seventeen years ago) link

The Lex (The Lex), Thursday, 5 October 2006 11:04 (seventeen years ago) link

Ed (dali), Thursday, 5 October 2006 11:05 (seventeen years ago) link

i was at stink. minilogue were prog boring. dice and lazarus were good. it was also super busy and hot.

MANDY this weekend.

rchinn (rchinn), Tuesday, 10 October 2006 18:17 (seventeen years ago) link

i was not at stink, as i am coughing my guts up at present. how busy was it? it was half empty last time i went. definitely going next month for mayer/superpitcher, health permitting.

toby (tsg20), Tuesday, 10 October 2006 18:32 (seventeen years ago) link

t bar next monday, mayer and superpitcher?

toby (tsg20), Tuesday, 31 October 2006 02:22 (seventeen years ago) link

Every time I open this thread I get a little rush of giddy excitement. I haven't been dancing since Cross Central which was nearly three months ago. This must be remedied.

Yes to Ellen Allien. Not sure about that Soulwax Weekender thing because, even though I don't know where it is, it just screams 'hellishly crowded' to me.

Matt DC (Matt DC), Tuesday, 31 October 2006 09:45 (seventeen years ago) link

Also Zombie Nation album wtf? Is it any good?

Matt DC (Matt DC), Tuesday, 31 October 2006 09:46 (seventeen years ago) link

Matt it's at Fabric. And I KNOW it'll be hellishly crowded and horrible, but I'm totally smitten with the idea of it! Boo. Stupid crowded Fabric.

marianna lcl (marianna lcl), Tuesday, 31 October 2006 10:18 (seventeen years ago) link

I haven't been out dancing for ages (as I've gone indie) so I would be up for Allien.

After the overcrowded no fun disaster of the last Soulwax 'event' I am giving that one a wide berth.

Raw Patrick (Raw Patrick), Tuesday, 31 October 2006 10:29 (seventeen years ago) link

not sure about ellen alien on the 11th now,

because

COCOON records night with... SVEN VATH at The End...

-- (688), Tuesday, 31 October 2006 10:31 (seventeen years ago) link

Argh that sounds good as well. Actually, I don't particularly care which one I go to, I'll just follow the group.

Matt DC (Matt DC), Tuesday, 31 October 2006 10:37 (seventeen years ago) link

SUPERMAYER.

so going. i miss dancing like the deserts miss the rain.

ampersand, hearts, semicolon (cis), Tuesday, 31 October 2006 11:48 (seventeen years ago) link

Actually the rest of that Ellen Allien night is quite meh but the 18th looks k-awesome (Craig Richards + Mayer + Ivan Smagghe + Black Strobe).

Matt DC (Matt DC), Tuesday, 31 October 2006 11:57 (seventeen years ago) link

who else is playing on the allien night?

the 18th does look awesome yes, but fabric two weeks in a row = NO.
