Utter pish is putting it lightly... I'd rather be violently anally penetrated by an angry gorilla than listen to that cunting ex-junky scumbag Pellow and his band's grotesquely awful drivel.

I'm not too keen on the Cosmic Rough Riders either.

Hogmany is made for house parties or celidhs (i think I spelt that wrong, I'm a rubbish scot), I hate going out, it's just like an expensive friday or saturday night.
What I *really* want to do is get a massive crowd together, go out into the countryside, make a bonfire, get some tents up and just party there. Shame it's in the middle of winter though.

The last one was the first time I'd been out in Aberdeen in Hogmanay. I quite enjoyed the whole affair at the Castlegate, didn't go into any pubs though. Hogmanay makes me feel sad. I don't see the big deal.

Wet Wet Wet would certainly make it 402 times worse. I always considered them (rightly or wrongly) as a band that only girls who don't like music would like, kinda like Texas.
The Proclaimers were a good pick because everybody when they're pished (unless they're supercool) will jump about like loonies and sing their tunes.

CRR are an even stranger choice than the Coral.

I've rented a house in Aviemore with some friends which should be good times.

£650 for 4 nights. Sleeps 8. The owner of the house is going away for new year so just decided to rent it out I think. My mate did all the booking so I'm not sure how she got in touch with them. I don't know if it's a legitimate business deal but i'm nae caring.
