who's coming?
Some days I wish I was still a student in Manchester.
:-(
i think
on thursday I will be wishing there were still students in manchester. way to schedule a gig for the end of term.
ho hum.
But all the students who come from Manchester will be back
...
i thought
term had just finished? they'll all be home detoxing and not feeling obliged to be well dressed.
term has just finished
it's dead round here.
This will probably be more than adequate
This will probably be more than adequate
This will be great
and not just because PWL just sent me a note asking me to say so!
I would have said so anyway :P
are you playing
with martin?
Nah
taking a break this time.
yeah
he can learn to play his own guitar.
I think
he would look better with a lute...
oh cocking hell
this looks awesome. but i'm going to belgium on friday so there's no chance of me being able to get to manchester and back before i have to leave :'(
If only PWL had some good musicians backing him
then I'd go to this.
yeah
does anyone know a decent bassist?
:S
Oh tempting. i am back in manchester tomorrow, but i think i need to show some enthusiasm for my family since i'm only back about twi days.
:(
i need to see PWL again! and the rest are all REALLY GOOD!!!
bring the family along!
tell them you're taking them for a mystery night out. families love that shit.
Yeah, FUCK THE FAMILY you lameass
steady on
he's from radcliffe not llandudno
maybe
I'm broke though. How much is it?
erm...
£5 maybe £4? can't remember. definitely not more than that though.
worth it for Modernaire alone.
man!
my quest to pre-emptively conspire to miss every pwl gig ever continues as i'm going to http://www.drownedinsound.com/articles/1770911
darn. still, that's an incentive for everyone else to go, i hope. it DOES look very good. :(
That looks great.
I would give both kidneys and a limb of your choice to be there.
ALAS!
would you give
your 'middle leg'?
Thats nothing
I actually did sell my grandmother to the slave trade so I could make it,
its THAT good.
(Lu can I stop now?)
why stop now?
think of martin and his little face.
ps - what the hell does 'alkaline maisonette' mean?
i guess
it's a secret
He told me once
its a play on Acid House.
Martin is strange.
ah
that makes sense now.
modernaire are well lovely
it sort of shouldnt work but totally does
shouldn't work?
sophisticatedly swoonsome young lady singing smart catchy lyrics over uberfunky electro backing? that's a no brainer to mel.
*
mel = notably discerning music connaisseur
no
If you ever use the word "uberfunky" in relation to my music again, I will never speak to you again.
Or I may review your EP as "Billy Bragg for the Broadband generation".
Damn you restlessboy for not planning your gigs around my life
I want to go.
Sulk.
you obviously
have your priorities wrong.
PWL gigs > your life
I may conspire to be there.
good work solider
so that's a grand total of two people coming then.
ace!
wow!
this looks great. I wish I didn't live in Leeds!
YEAH
tonight!
this gig will make you wish Leeds didn't exist.
hello
i will be attending this shindig (i was going to anyway, just in case you thought your clever pm and thread combo marketing trick worked damn you!). i will also be bringing some friends so that will be even more people. unfortunately i only have about three :(
bf
anyone else think this thread was about mankinis?
Fanks
cheers to anyone who came along. It was a top night.
As for restlessboy's behaviour backstage, well, I'd rather not say, but there is no WAY they were over 18.
hey
dry bar don't ask for ID and neither do I.
this was ace.
and BABAAB i thought I saw you there but I wasn't sure it was you. good work to all who turned up.
Modernaire = the pwners.
