anything this sat or sun. not sure what i can do this weekend really, but it'd be nice to know

― charltonlido (gareth), Friday, 27 May 2005 12:12 (eighteen years ago) link

i'm taking time off due to end-of-month financial concerns. but maybe a quiet beer on monday?

― lauren (laurenp), Friday, 27 May 2005 12:14 (eighteen years ago) link

Speak of the devil... That last weekend was slightly rediculous as far as late went - I don't think I was awake during normal daytime hours the whole thing. I've got to have a quietish one this weekend as well, though that still looks to be including Our Disco tonight (Plastic People from 11ish), a party tomorrow and a warehouse party with Ivan Smagghe Sunday & Secret Sundaze crew (Hoxton somewhere, sometime).

I think there's a 20:20 Vision night at The Key tomorrow as well, can't remember off the top of my head though.

DJ Hell is playing the next Issst at The Key as well, not too sure when it is other than next month yet though. I've not caught him DJing before, so I'm kind of interested I guess.

It was nice meeting you anyway Lauren, I'm sure I'll see you about in the future!

I'm taking tonight off, going to a friends bbq and B-day party tomorrow night and seeing what's up at Brum on Sunday.

Alex, I stayed in the smae place we were at for half an hour, so there's no excuse, you schoolboy. I did find out that "Peaches" carries a fan and is gay, and wa spossibly one of the few people I wasn't wishing an acid bath on as the night carried on.

Barima I'm really sorry! That half hour would have been when the drama happened, and I wasn't able to get back into the swing of it for at least another half hour after that. I feel like shit today.

― The Lex (The Lex), Friday, 27 May 2005 14:42 (eighteen years ago) link

I feel fine enough, though I kept stalling during my driving lesson earlier. I hope the real Sonar isn't that patchy, as it would be a shame after all the praise I've heard.

― Negativa, True Believer (You know you love it when I'm dressed in drag) (Barima), Friday, 27 May 2005 14:44 (eighteen years ago) link

I didn't think it was patchy at all, really. But real Sónar is going to be so good.

THE GLIMMER TWINS - FREE PARTY - T BAR - TONIGHT - 7PM TIL LATE

who is coming?

― The Lex (The Lex), Thursday, 2 June 2005 08:28 (eighteen years ago) link

I don't think I can come out ever again.

Depressing thread!

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Thursday, 2 June 2005 08:32 (eighteen years ago) link

REx The Dog is playing tonight in Soho as well right? I would probably go for that over The Glimmer Twins even if it is free. Oh well.

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Thursday, 2 June 2005 08:33 (eighteen years ago) link

what on earth are you talking about?

whats happening this weekend anyway? anything interesting? i dont think im working after all

― charltonlido (gareth), Thursday, 2 June 2005 08:40 (eighteen years ago) link

Where the hell are these places? T Bar? What's this about Rex? One of my mates wants to meet up in Holborn and I'd like some back-up plans 'n' suggestions.

― Negativa, True Believer (You know you love it when I'm dressed in drag) (Barima), Thursday, 2 June 2005 09:37 (eighteen years ago) link

T Bar is on the corner of Shoreditch High St and Bethnal Green Rd. I literally fell into it on Saturday because we couldn't be arsed to wait for our night bus. They played C&C Music Factory.

I know nothing about Rex and am trying not to find out as I will not be able to go.

― The Lex (The Lex), Thursday, 2 June 2005 09:44 (eighteen years ago) link

Rex is tonight @ Electrogogo, and I can't go because I have knackered my knee and I can barely walk and OW OW OW.

― Lucretia My Teleportation (Lucretia My Reflection), Thursday, 2 June 2005 10:04 (eighteen years ago) link

i've got a work do tonight, maybe i can persuade them all to go to rex the dog! no.

june 11th: get physical @ the end vs. border community/crosstown rebels warehouse party 'in east london.' hmmm.

― pete b. (pete b.), Thursday, 2 June 2005 10:08 (eighteen years ago) link

Do you have any more details abt the Border Community party?

― RickyT (RickyT), Thursday, 2 June 2005 10:10 (eighteen years ago) link

bah, cant do next w/e

― charltonlido (gareth), Thursday, 2 June 2005 10:15 (eighteen years ago) link

there's another party at that boudoir place next saturday, with rub 'n' tug (who are crazy good) and chickenlips. however, i'm supposed to be detoxing until glastonbury so i should be at home instead like a good child watching big brother.

― lauren (laurenp), Thursday, 2 June 2005 10:26 (eighteen years ago) link

unless i decide that i need a night out to get match fit for glasto, in which case.. let's party, dudes!

― lauren (laurenp), Thursday, 2 June 2005 10:26 (eighteen years ago) link

i need a run out this weekend, im match fit again!

― charltonlido (gareth), Thursday, 2 June 2005 10:30 (eighteen years ago) link

I'll be on the bench for a while with this ruptured wallet.

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Thursday, 2 June 2005 10:33 (eighteen years ago) link

the border community website says it's on brick lane - call 07930 238 017 for details. i am also trying to be good until glastonbury so we'll see.

― pete b. (pete b.), Thursday, 2 June 2005 10:35 (eighteen years ago) link

fuck trying to be good!

we were meant to have Headman here in Dublin tonight but it's not looking good, though there is a wealth of stuff on all weekend. sadly no warehouse parties of labels I like but you can't have everything.

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 2 June 2005 10:38 (eighteen years ago) link

I am a bit too tired for this w/end, so the 11th looks appealing. Any later and I wd be in danger of doing myself in pre-glasto.

― RickyT (RickyT), Thursday, 2 June 2005 10:40 (eighteen years ago) link

Rex is 6squid. Hmm.

― Negativa, True Believer (You know you love it when I'm dressed in drag) (Barima), Thursday, 2 June 2005 10:43 (eighteen years ago) link

oh god it has just occurred to me that maybe I should try to be good for Sónar.

― The Lex (The Lex), Thursday, 2 June 2005 10:49 (eighteen years ago) link

I wouldn't mind seeing Cagedbaby at Cargo on Sat.

― Negativa, True Believer (You know you love it when I'm dressed in drag) (Barima), Thursday, 2 June 2005 10:51 (eighteen years ago) link

Lex I like the way you always make the effort to put the ó in Sónar!

― pete b. (pete b.), Thursday, 2 June 2005 10:57 (eighteen years ago) link

accents are important! also I have a weird keyboard which does it really easily.

― The Lex (The Lex), Thursday, 2 June 2005 11:10 (eighteen years ago) link

Oh god. Next saturday is somewhat mental with Border Community party (prob. on City Road) vs DJ Hell (if he shows up...) at Issst vs Rub n Tug & Justin Roberton vs DJ T & M.A.N.D.Y. Oh god.

― MattR (MattR), Thursday, 2 June 2005 20:45 (eighteen years ago) link

despite LAME 'guestlist' policy on the door (everyone who came circumvented this by pretty much ignoring the trustafarian girl manning the clipboard) the Glimmers were super-fun - Greg I am sorry you didn't make it!

― The Lex (The Lex), Friday, 3 June 2005 08:26 (eighteen years ago) link

I had a mondo awesome time at the Spanish bar on Drury Lane last night. You all shoulda seen me doing my freestyle salsa, and I made a new friend and dancing partner!

― BARMS, Friday, 3 June 2005 13:03 (eighteen years ago) link

God, I'm bored already this weekend. Why can't there be anything that I'd like this Saturday, when I'm actually in town and it's not conflicting with anything else?

― The Square Root Of Negative Two (kate), Friday, 3 June 2005 13:20 (eighteen years ago) link

MIA at Fabric this Friday. Anyone up for it? I'll be there.

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Monday, 13 June 2005 13:52 (eighteen years ago) link

she's meant to be in sónar! this means she'll be in barcelona on either thu or sat.

― The Lex (The Lex), Monday, 13 June 2005 13:59 (eighteen years ago) link

if she cancels i'm never buying her records again (oh wait...)

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Monday, 13 June 2005 15:03 (eighteen years ago) link

visa then a plane ride to ya - no problem!

― The Lex (The Lex), Monday, 13 June 2005 15:30 (eighteen years ago) link

Any Glasto skivers fancy Cut Copy at Trash on Monday? You should accompany me because:

I've never been and would be happiest making this my premiere abecause I doubt it gets much better.

They are bloody awesome live.

Over to you!

― BARMS, Tuesday, 21 June 2005 08:15 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm washing my hair that night (no really). MIA was pretty cool incidentally.

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Tuesday, 21 June 2005 09:06 (eighteen years ago) link

how about fabric on the 23rd of july? ican smagghe and a live set from isolee...

they've got mayer + ada on july 2nd, btw, but i can't make that.

― toby (tsg20), Tuesday, 21 June 2005 10:50 (eighteen years ago) link

No thanks.

― BARMS, Tuesday, 21 June 2005 10:59 (eighteen years ago) link

I was thinking about the 23rd. I got the Isolee album on Saturday and am loving it.

― RickyT (RickyT), Tuesday, 21 June 2005 11:08 (eighteen years ago) link

I haveta tell you all now that you shouldn't sleep on the TDK Cross Festival at the end of August. If it ain't the definition of perfect Bank Hol Action, I dunno what is. Seeing The Shortwave Set AND Grace Jones in the same weekend will finally stop my crusty, dead heart for good.

― BARMS, Tuesday, 21 June 2005 11:40 (eighteen years ago) link

B, I think I'd be up for Trash on Monday.

― marianna lcl (marianna lcl), Tuesday, 21 June 2005 14:32 (eighteen years ago) link

Gosh, I love you. But you must e-mail me about our soiree next week with Britain's very own Axis of Evil, poste haste (Alex also).

― BARMS, Tuesday, 21 June 2005 14:44 (eighteen years ago) link

Also, I'm thinking of (freestyle) salsa dancing tomorrow night on Drury Lane if anyone's interested.

― BARMS, Wednesday, 22 June 2005 08:30 (eighteen years ago) link

i'm also swearing right now that the next time villalobos is at fabric i'm going (yeah, i know he played like 3 weeks ago, but i couldn't make that).

― toby (tsg20), Wednesday, 22 June 2005 08:38 (eighteen years ago) link

Both those Fabrics look good, as does August Bank Holiday action (also please note: that is my birthday weekend). Am still in post-Sonar post-Wimbledon quiet mode for the next few days though.

― The Lex (The Lex), Wednesday, 22 June 2005 13:10 (eighteen years ago) link

Goddamn. I would so be up for Salsa action tomorrow night. Sadly I shall be editing MTV and VH1 schedules all evening. Kerrap.

I would very much like to spend all summer dancing.
