Soda Jerk Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Who does your posters? They are always tremendous. I like seeing them in eateries when I am buying pies and sandwiches. And pie sandwiches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest idol_wild Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Pie sandwiches sound amazing.I do all the posters myself, with the exception of two recently (the 20th March club night one and the We Are Trapped in Kansas/Cast of the Capital one - I had outside parties kindly volunteer their skills and time for those).

A delicious treat for those who don't value their life enough to look after it. RecommendedI never knew you did your own posters. Mad skills.I also like the sounds that these bands make, so I will hopefully pop along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 I want to play S+E as well, since I became instrumental and employed a Boss DD-7 delay pedal and a loop pedal.I'm still shit, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest idol_wild Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Goodspeed Young Sir by 85 Bears - the build up from 5:00 onwards is fucking hypnotic and builds nicely. Especially once it hits that lovely chord on 5:40.85 BEARS on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music DownloadsYum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
