3 guitars for sale. 1. fender telecaster (light blue, mexican, standard, plus hard case). 200. 2. ovation breadwinner (early 70s, vintage guitar, very good condition, tan/black). make me an offer. 3. electric-accoustic mandolin (grafton). 150. Im kind of making up these prices, since i cant remember how much i actually paid for the tele and the grafton. i swapped my strat for the ovation a couple of decades ago, and a quick-ish search on the web doesnt help too much in setting a price. PM me if you want any more info or images of the guitars. k

i have 1 neil young ticket spare. any reasonable offer and its yours. you would have to pick it up either at the exhibition centre from me, or from old aberdeen later this afternoon. PM me for contact details. kevin

yep. but most unfortunately pete mconville wont be playing with Tiny Bike, because he is still stuck in the igloo he built in the snow drift that he has been stuck in for the last few days.

trip to gronigen we're organising a trip to gronigen probably in february to play some gigs there, assuming john finds venues etc. it wont cost much if we can find cheap flights, ferrys, etc. and we can stay with john's mother who has a fine musical pedigree - she's seen The Band live! if anyone would like to find out more about that then let me know. best kevin

special guest on piano, banjo and accordion, and after a long absence, Pete McConville will be playing with welfare mothers again at Peacock. should be very special! (should be)

yep sure, its a good deal.

if you like we could manufacture a guest list with your name on it? let me know cheers!

forgot to say, but even so we will be doing four new songs.

yep, kathryn is organising and running it, thats one reason to support it and go along. another is that it will be the last ever welfare mothers gig.

Kathryn spent her entire saturday night making posters out of cutlery and hoover bags especially for this gig. have any of them appeared around town yet though? there's a special edition of 14 only. future collectors items..?

and, if you like, come along to Peacock gallery on the 15th for what is probably the final herkert gig in aberdeen for a while - with us and kathryn sawers and julie-anne mcCambridge and Jvdwas.

we bought our tickets online ages ago and i opted to pick them up at the venue. but i just phoned the carmelite to ask whether they had them. they said speak to imp. will u guys be bringing the tickets along for collection tonight? or have i fucked up by opting for pick up at the venue..?

cool, a bring your own bean bag gig!

what are the seating arrangements (have never been in the place before)? kevin

way back when i saw the pixies at the venue (and glasgow the night before and edinburgh the night after). who else was at the venue gig though? Im expecting that EVERYONE was at it...

the cobwebs were acquired in the garden shed

a signed t-shirt....?

stars of the lid sounds fantastic. do they do their own live video show with the music too?

if i was here, id be there, if you see what i mean. ill be in the borders the whole weekend.

john haircut (ex of green ponytail) is slightly better! sounds like a great gig, wish i could be there.

but its john haircut isnt it?
