Can I pick up a couple of tickets from you Carson Wells lads at uni at some point?

We seem to have some cheaper ticket option but I have no idea if we get actual tickets to sell or if it's a list of people we give to the door so those people get in cheaper. Either way, it's 5 rather than the price just now.

If we get tickets then I'll meet you at uni, if we don't and it's just a list then I'll put your name down on the list.

Euan, are you wanting in on this too?

Bump. I'd like shot of these. Will consider reasonable offers.

I use iTunes simply to drag and drop. I don't store music on my computer, otherwise it makes my Virus Scan take hours. If I was using it for more than dragging on dropping onto my iPod, then I'd probably burst into flames with rage, since it so slow, and hogs memory like a million Internet Explorers.

The software I had for my Creative Zen Touch was ace. Infact, my Creative Zen Touch was just pure ace. The sound was just billions better. I also liked how I could select a band, and then press random, and it would just play that band on random, and not everything on my player. That was handy. iPod won't let me do that.

I'm able to do this on mine - go to an artist, go to all songs, hit play, then press the circle button in the middle three times until something like "off/songs/albums" comes up, then scroll along to songs and it'll shuffle all the songs under that artist.

I had a Zen too and my buttons went the same way = perma-shuffle.

Have you seen him playing it with the full band? Really good.

Both times there were around three others on stage with him, I think. Are there normally a few more?

It was just when I saw him with Stars of the Lid that I found the whole performance to be a bit slack. The only other time I caught him was at that Triptych all-dayer at the Tramway in Glasgow a couple of years ago which he opened and I thought he was great. The Tunnels performance just didn't seem to click as well as that one.

The sound/feel of the album is great though and I like how it differs from the live stuff.

Will probably head along to this. Seen him twice - once was good but the other less so. Supports might make up my mind.

I really liked the album and look forward to hearing this new EP coming out.

This?

Because that would maybe be even better!

I wish! The song on mine is called "Turtle Power" by a group calling themselves "Partners In Kryme" (I kid you not!) and the b-sides are Splinter's Tale 1 and Splinter's Tale 2.

I've just had a wee hunt and if anyone is mad keen on picking up a copy:

7" single Partners In Kryme Turtle Power on eBay (end time 12-Oct-10 22:19:56 BST)

YAS.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. HEROES IN A HALF-SHELL, TURTLE POWER!

I was given a TMNT 7" not that long ago which I thought had the cartoon theme tune on it. Gutted to find that it turned out to be one of the songs from the film series.

Thanks very much!

Really looking forward to this. I like the poster.

Any idea of times for this?

I'm planning on picking this up asap. Really liked the most of the Deerhunter stuff and I've loved both Atlas Sound albums.

Anyone?

Picked up the Az-i Cool EP for free in One-Up downstairs today. It sounds great guys, really enjoying it!

Gutted I won't be along tonight.

I haven't really enjoyed it as a series. Felt some bits have been poor and most of it just okay. It is well shot and the scenes that are meant to be affecting, are. It's the cheesy, sing-a-long, slow-mo bits that grate for me. Probably just personal thing. I've never seen Skins but some folk have said that last week's episode was pretty close to that. Any truth in that? Found it hilarious that folk on c-zine have been pointing out the errors in the likes of The Cure t-shirts and what not (wrong era/wrong album tour/reprint from ten years later, etc). Amazing levels of geekdom.

Despite my gripes though, I've watched or taped it each week. It did get a little better last night, obviously building for some mental climax next week.

Felt ill going to bed last night. Having read the Marabou Stork Nightmares about two weeks ago, I can totally see where folk are coming from. I've read a few folk say that perhaps Channel 4 should have been a bit more on it with warnings - at the start saying "violent and sexual scenes", but not "violent sexual scenes". Was there anything said in the break? I made a cup of tea so missed it if it was there. Would have been awful if someone had just happened to be flicking through channels and came across it.

Totally agree with Pierre Von Mondragon's post too.

Sold!

Seasons 1-4 remain. Will do the lot for 30.

landings by richard skelton is so so good. very sad, though. apparently he really threw himself into his work after his wife passed away. anyway, great record. i could listen to green withins brook on repeat for pretty much ever. type have been doing great lately. did you (free tibet/ross) hear the black to comm record? very good indeed! not sure about the new on (chauveau, hess, fennesz) record though. maybe i need to digest it a bit more. i'll throw my hat in the ring and say that carve out the face of my god by infinite body is easily one of my favourite releases of the year. definitely check it out if you can.

It's really great. Gutted I didn't pick up the vinyl copy One-Up had in when it came out.

I have a lot of love for Type. That Black to Comm record (Alphabet 1968 the one you're talking about, aye?) is amazing, as are those Thomas Koner reissues. The final Yellow Swans LP is super too. I don't have that new On record yet. The only one I have is "Your Naked Ghost Comes Back At Night" which I really like. Wads of sub-bass going on.

I'll check out that Infinite Body record.

Series 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.

Looking for about a tenner each or 40 for the lot. All in good nick. 3, 4 and 5 haven't been watched.

Happy to meet in town or I can post them out for a couple of quid extra.

Post in the thread, PM or email me - ross_mclay AT hotmail.co.uk

Cheers

Stunning album.

PM me your address and I'll get a Carson Wells EP out to you before the end of the week.

He doesn't seem to understand it's meant to be a laugh, and a fair proportion of the attendees are unfit, weezing 20-somethings or aren't good at football but just fancy a kick about.

Exactly this. I have no real issue with Guy's approach, he's perfectly entitled to take things that seriously. It's the fact that Team Internet aren't there for the same reasons. In a competitive environment I'm sure he has as much fun as we do in a relaxed, un-fit, toe-poking one. If he doesn't get invited back then so be it. I hope he finds people of a similar mindset to play with.

I won't be playing in 2 weeks and Joe won't be either as we've got a DROSS gig in Dundee that night. Rock!

I'll be in attendance at this gig too, so count me out.

14/16 looks like we have a decent amount, two more would be ideal though. anyone heard anything of Nefarious C?

Need to remove Calum from the list - he's working.

I've got a soft spot for them, too. They're not THAT bad, are they?

"Things that we need: money, clothes, weed"

A soft spot is as far as I'd go, personally. In saying that, I did buy "Warriorz" when I found it in a charity shop (feeling nostalgic from when I had it on minidisc; those were the days, etc).

There are some good tunes but I find the vast majority of it to be overly aggressive and hilariously over the top. But the whole thing amuses me enough to listen from time to time.

Aaaante up!

The very same. "Warriorz" is an atrocious/righteous album.
