Also apols for previous drunken shout out, that was just directed to the universe in general. fucking universe.

When are you leaving Brighton, emil.y? I'm going to see Exit Order at the Cowley Club on Saturday, could do an early FAP that day if anyone is about.

Hello Brighton. Sorry it's a long since I rapped at ya. I'm going to Guitar Wolf at Prince Albert next week and Cuntroaches April 11th. Might be going to Blue Orchids, Liminanas, the Ex, Len Price 3 or Dr & the Crippens so hit me up if he going to any of those
― Colonel Poo, Saturday, 17 March 2018 23:58 (six years ago) link
Hiya M! Will probably go and see the Ex if it doesn't sell out but Dr & the Crippens might also be fun
Never ever seen the Blue Orchids so maybe i should fix that. Who else is on the bill?

Band of holy joy are supporting blue orchids. I saw blue orchids at a C86 anniversary gig in London a few years ago and they were really good. They mightve been the best band that night except I can't remember if that was the same year I saw the June Brides. If it was that year they were the second best band
― Colonel Poo, Sunday, 18 March 2018 00:13 (six years ago) link
Ah yeah, BOHJ - have tried so many times to get into Johny and his gang. Have always liked the idea of them, their records are really shit but in an interesting way. Perhaps they'll click live? Anyhow, could be a definite maybe
― i'm surprised to see your screwface at the door (NickB), Sunday, 18 March 2018 00:19 (six years ago) link
Yeah I'm not a huge fan.i have a bohj 12" which is ok. Tbh I wish it was the June Brides again they were awesome
― Colonel Poo, Sunday, 18 March 2018 00:22 (six years ago) link
Another band I've never seen, have always like In The Rain since I was a kid though
― i'm surprised to see your screwface at the door (NickB), Sunday, 18 March 2018 00:29 (six years ago) link

Argh this bus is bouncey There were 2 gigs over 2 years and I can't remember which was which butYeah yeah NohA witness Brilliant cornersWedding presentPopgunsBlue orchidsJune BridesPrimitives
There were more but can't remember.

I saw Stewart Lee at one of them. He is actually responsible for me getting into Talulah Gosh cos he wrote an article for the Guardian about them in the mid 90s
― Colonel Poo, Sunday, 18 March 2018 00:38 (six years ago) link
Popguns were a Brighton band right? Think I met their ex-manager at work once iirc
― i'm surprised to see your screwface at the door (NickB), Sunday, 18 March 2018 00:40 (six years ago) link
Think so. They weren't very good wherever they were from. I'm in a horrible Eastbourne pub at the moment cos the trains are all fucked up tonight
― Colonel Poo, Sunday, 18 March 2018 00:48 (six years ago) link
There's a Sarah records gig at the Green Door which I would've been all over if I hadn't already bought tickets to the London night the next day - even as we speak, boyracer, secret shine and action Painting.
I've seen 2 fake even as we speak gigs over the last 15 years which were basically Mary Wyer plus whoever she could rope into doing it but apparently these ones are the real deal. Also I think action painting may be responsible for my favourite ever Sarah single

oh shit, stay warm and good luck my man! were it not 1 o'clock in the morning, i'd have sent you round to my sister-in-law's

Eh it's ok, although they kicked everyone out at 1 nobody seems to have noticed I've got on a train which is allegedly going to Hastings. If it's not actually going to Hastings I may be in a spot of bother

I'm there now and then visiting family. Should be at the Scritti gig at the Concorde2 on October 1st.

Cool, what are you all coming here to do? Timing suggests academic year?

Our Alice, from the old days of "Amber and Alice", is resident
― Mark G, Saturday, 4 September 2021 11:27 (two years ago) link
Scritti gig!
That'd be nice...
I stupidly assumed it wouldn't sell out and then it did almost straight away! If anyone has a spare ticket get in touch.
― Chewshabadoo, Monday, 6 September 2021 20:09 (two years ago) link
Of course now I can't go due to, er, moving house next week...
Chewshabadoo! My ticket is yours if you want it.
― nashwan, Friday, 1 October 2021 14:47 (two years ago) link
cannot believe people still lose their penises over scritti, green could not sing, it's the only way he was able to reference derrida whilst knowing about the esoteric right wing core within deconstruction. emperors new clothes and that. Britney is and was by all accounts far more philosophically cogent as a pop universe, in spite of her politics being all over the place and pro-Bush.

Green sounds as sweet as anything to my ears. Anyway, thanks for your message nashwan, a very kind offer but I was out of town tonight.

If anyone is feeling bulletproof, I’m DJing on New Year’s Eve:
Looking for a dance on New Years’s Eve, I’ll be playing Italo disco, Hi-NRG and other 80s synth heavy hitters @rossi_bar with other Flex DJs and perhaps a special guest…#ItaloDisco #Brighton pic.twitter.com/88ATecRHFZ— Matthew Balaam (@matthewbalaam) December 29, 2021

Can’t promise, but I might let you in.
― Chewshabadoo, Wednesday, 29 December 2021 19:22 (two years ago) link
ha you just reminded me that security guy really did not want to let me in last time, and when he reluctantly did so, he then followed me in a stood behind me watching while i bought a drink at the bar. really strange, not sure what vibe i was giving out unless i've finally achieved weird old geezer status
― o shit the sheriff (NickB), Wednesday, 29 December 2021 20:38 (two years ago) link
I don’t know what security company they use their but they are often a bit heavy-handed on the door, requiring ID etc for people clearly over 30 etc. Annoying.

hey mister, sorry i couldn't make it in the end, i had family shenanigans to attend to. hope you had fun though!

I may be in Brighton briefly over the weekend coming
― Urbandn hope all ye who enter here (dog latin), Monday, 3 January 2022 18:08 (two years ago) link
Yes, we had a good old dance, and I managed to play all of the Patrick Cowley Megamix of I Feel Love at midnight which pleased me a lot.
I’m away in Bognor of all places this weekend.
