is anyone from here
going? none of my friends want to go.
got bristol tickets
w00p. shame we have to suffer "Death from above"
Well...
...I expect I will go.
But I am nobody's friend.
aren`t doing any northeast gig
we have reopened the arena and if good enough for rev and maker it must be good enough for them
you'll be my friend at the gig
i saw you at the MMISL enterprise gig, we should have been friends then.
me
cool!
we can be buds!
I'm going
To Hoxton.
Don't take that as written though, because I'll probably fall asleep in the bath and miss it, like I did meet me in st. louis last night.
Going!
Hoxton Bar & Grill.
fuck late night gigs
in places nowhere near me.
Anyone know of late night buses running from Nottingham to Sheffield? Google fails me.
re: fuck late night gigs
Aaah, another perfectly fantastic gig ruined by the fact the band goes on at about 5am and is attended by coked up mentalists. Brilliant. I expect I'll suffer to see Islands, but it well narks me.
I just dont get it
If you want to make a club night out of it, just put the bands on early and have club djs after, suits everyone.
bristol
is closest for me but shame the last train to newport is like 11pm#
they were awesome in july 06 (geez that long ago :| )
Damn...
And here was me misreading the title thinking you were gonna be dragging some indie bands round the Outer Hebrides.
Nice!
The gf got me a ticket for the Hoxton show for Christmas. Should be amazing and hopefully not as insanely hot as their Barden's Boudoir show a while back.
