  1. Was an ace weekend!

    Highlights were definitely, Sigur Ros, Death Cab, Jenny Lewis, Eels, Seth Lakeman and Ben Harper.

    We Are Scientists were great also and Maximo Park were a pleasant surprise live, not too keen on them but they were ace.

    Sigur Ros were absolutely amazing, definitely band of the weekend, closely followed by Jenny Lewis and Death Cab. Was a bit gutted at Zero 7 having to cancel but it meant a bit extra Death Cab so that's fine!

  2. Gig last night was awesome. Didn't catch The Mirimar Disaster as I was working until 8 but if they were as good as people have been saying hopefully I'll catch them some other time.

    Chris Clarke was fantastic, there was a real progression in his set, some of the drum and bass stuff near the end was awesome and the visuals were brilliant.

    Really enjoyed 65days, their music is so passionate and thoroughly inspirational.

    Thought the gig wasn't too badly advertised, it's been on a lot of flyers and stuff, had my ticket way back in January. There's been a hell of a lot of fantastic gigs over the past couple of weeks, Stapleton in particular were brilliant. Much respect to the promoters and keep up the good work!

  3. Yep that would have been moi.

    Less gothic coz i figured that if i wore my leather coat it would get soaked at the bottom coz im short and the ground is wet :(

    Sorry but i cant say I noticed you because i dont know what you look like' date=' although i did notice a few guys looking at me as if they recognised me.

    Linzi, i don't remember meeting him either. I just remember mark, jarvis, you, rhino, steve-o turned up didnt he? and Claire was there. But thats all who i can remember although i have a feeling that Justin turned up later on. Were we watching Big Brother?!?!?! I do however remember getting freaked out having never spoken to mark online before and he could remember my email address from me telling him my user name on here ?([/quote']

    ...was that last summer at jarvis'?all i remember about that is everybody having to sprint for the bus

  4. god,it's really bad this year.watched it for the first time a couple of nights ago out of curiosity some guy was taking a bath in a dustbin or something.

    sure i've seen mary chasing people up the side of a well too!

  5. don't have a lot of really rare stuff,mainly just signed tickets, setlists,drumsticks,plecs and stuff

    i have darran from ffaf on my voicemail though,a nice signed bled drumstick and a one line drawing of onelinedrawing jonah matranga signed as well as a ticket stub signed by him,not really rare but he;s my absolute idol!

  6. and then...from the jedi scum blood emerges

    Liam_Neeson.jpg

    *Liam Neeson bursts into action and grabs Birdmans home made/hand crafted point - ed stick!

    He SNAPS it over his knee and walks away shaking his head.*

    pffft.you could have picked someone better-qui gon is responsible for jar-jar :down:

    he deserved to die at the end of episode 1.

  7. i will abolish rugby and expell the people who play it/hang onto it

    that would get my vote...as long as you also ban aberdeen uni hoodies,they're just as bad if not worse than rugby shirts.

    it would also be good to ban 9 o clock lectures,there's nothing worse than dragging yourself hungover out of bed to rush in to a lecture and sit and listen to someone drone on in monotone and promptly be sent back to sleep again.waste.

  8. Wierdest night was saturday when Akufen totally blew me away with a fantastic mix up set and then Hot Chip made me laugh with the most awful and wanky Devo impression Ive ever seen (fucked off to Snafu at that point)

    Highlight was Kano last wednesday at the Melon Tree

    Biggest surprise was The Earlies on Friday (I was bullied into going expecting some alt country bollocks) but quite liked it!

    Overall I thought it was fantastic' date=' and kinda proves that there are lotsa people in the deen who will go to underground gigs en mass if the promoters got their shit together

    playing safe with a thousand kiddie emo shit bands, pub rock and relentless tribute acts has made going to gigs very hazardous and has put a lot of people off

    Triptych should be on all the time :love:[/quote']

    yeah kano were great,really tight,was really ace to see roots with a full band as well.was REALLY drunk that night,remember dreamy days being ace though.the crowd were good too.
