Magnus's answer absolutely ended me

Our very own forum regs Jamesy, Ross AGP and John (Hen) Beverley I'm sure deserve a lot of credit for pulling together such a fantastic lineup. I think that some people havn't recognised just how damn impressive it is, pulling together a lineup of this quality at a first-year festival. Most festies take years to build a reputation and attract a stellar lineup.
Well played fellas

Here is the message I put on aberdeen-mad.co.uk, as a result of the unprecendented and probably illegal crackdown on online poker in the last 12 hours:
The FBI has seized all the assets of the online poker world, trying to take $3 billion from the gambling community. It is not yet known what the extent of the fallout is, but I might see you down the dole queue on Monday....
As it stands, I will be coaching and grinding as per usual (albeit, without my American students and opponents). However, it seems as if the world's economy sees a quick way to make a buck without fear of reprisal/regulation...
I do feel as if there is no stronger collection of intellectual minds than the poker community, so it will be nigh on impossible to f**uck with them without reprisal. However, for the time being, I recommend that you withdraw a chunk of your roll on Full Tilt, Pokerstars and Absolute Poker/Ultimate Bet in case of the unthinkable happening. Keep the minimum necessary in order to still play your regular games in your online accounts.

Jewel in the Crown and Shabaaz are both pretty damn good. I think the BYOB place mentioned above might be Gurkha Kitchen, which isn't Indian, but supposed to be very good.
Definitely my nembers one and two. I think the BYOB affair is the Lahore Karahi on King St (near Safeways). Every time I have been there has ben tremendous, but I have heard that they have a different chef these days.
Actually, think on it, it aint BYOB, it is booze-less. But I have typed all this out now, so I aint deleting it.

Chris - the full lineup hasnt been confirmed but I do know for a fact that the lineup being bandied around is not a million miles from accurate. These names havent been plucked from the sky.

Cant believe that people are moanbing about the price. A two day festival for 90 bangers featuring some actual quality acts in the city centre. Haters gonna hate etc, but the price seems perfectly reasonable to me.

The Waterboys are playing. As is Edywn. Idlewild. Xcerts...what's not to love? Cannae wait

I was rooting for him to pick the Chinese burd. That is what ruined Scott Pilgrim for me.

Anyone who takes pride in coming third is not worth your attention imo

I have size 12 too. shoes are dick, i once went around about 5 different shops trying to find shoes that fit my feet.

Plaed an incredible gig in there when I was eighteen with de Barros. We got told that we were too loud during soundcheck, so we just played two songs (Serrate and Drag You Down), but took them off in different, less raucous directions.
Definitely the sort of spontaneity that goes wrong 9/10 times, but we got it plumb on the money that night. People were going feel!
My flatmate John Scrotal Tunic Cromar subsequently played a set using a vibrator as an ebow.
One of my all-time favourite gigs.

A lot of them are American, they specifically recruited kids from the international school so they had the proper look for their start-out staff. A lot of the kids ended up putting their cv's into all the other stores in union square, desperate for more hours as Hollister wouldn't give them more.
This was in the Belfast store, and believe me, these kids were not American! There is no confusing an American accent with a Belfast attempt at one
-
And what about the accents? Holy Christmas. I went in once and was met with a faux Amercan "how are yeeoow?". I struggled through five minutes, but didn't see a single item of clothing that looked remotely wearable.
-
I struggled through Wedding Crashers last night just to see Will Ferrell's cameo at the end.
Watched this at the cinema back in the day. Just absolutely Godawful.
-
What's wrong with flip flops?
All this judging people based on what they wear seems a little weird and childish.
...and that is why it is fun
-
I saw someone at uni once who was wearing a hoody that said this:
Insta-fud imo
-
I am looking forward to this. I like that y'all didn't rush into making an LP like so many bands do.
You look like you should be in Copy Haho when you grow up

Dogs Can't Look Up | The girl from off of The Queens Nose <3 <3 All...
She got sexy.
EDIT: Harmony Parker from 'The Queen's Nose' was a hottie | Facebook
That's actually stupid. She is hot though.
I would pop my penis inside of her

Im feeling the need to post this here for some reason. It kind of fits in line with an indie version of Rebecca Black / this young chap.
Its a longgggggggggggg 4 minutes.

My GF works with somebody who - no joke has Vanilla Ice's autograph tattooed onto his arm, and a tatt of an ice cream with the simple slogan 'delicious'.
Never met the guy, but I can only surmise that he is an awful cunt.
BTW, Ca_Gere's reply was LOL but the rep Gods bla bla bla
-
Didnt get as good a lol as I thought. Meh. Check this out though:

Snap. Loved the gig. TYVM Mr Milne for booking us. It was nice to play a short, uptempo set, as we don't do that very often.
Crackin night all around!
-
T'riffic show. Couldn't believe how different his set was from GLasgow - most of the themes were the same but he took them off in different directions. Overactive brain + cheap lager * Jager and Red Bull = comic genius

You made those up

Second one was without doubt not a penalty...Stokes just stood there waiting for a tiny bit of contact, making no attempt to gain possession or even move towards the ball. Ludicrous decision.
First one looked like a stonewaller, but once again the red was hugely debatable. Most referees (myself included) consider a clear goalscoring opportunity to entail being in possession of the ball. Vernon was fouled in the build up too.
Simply, if the boot was on the other foot, there is no way in hell that Celtic would have been penalised with two pens and a red card. Absolutely no chance.
