Who's gonna be there? I'm in London alone from about half 5, so company for dinner and gig would be desirable.

Glasgow
guy, going myself; aiming to be at venue for 7:30pm... company can be given
me and sophia are going
but i don't know when we'll be there
if you see
a guy walking aimlessly around in a blue Dickies hoodie - s'me
:)
i haven't planned my atire, but i have no clean clothes so i'll probably have a grey hoodie on though i don't want to wear it, and i want that to be known right here in print!
I wish I was going to this :(
I was listening to Frances The Mute this afternoon and track 1 (I can't remember what it's called) made me go weak at the knees. I'm going bowling/karaoke instead, WINNER!
CYGNUS
VISMUND CYGNUS
man, i saw them in glasgow on tuesday
it was fucking incredible. The new drummer (although nowhere near as good as jon theodore) was incredible, and they all seemed on top form. Omar was moving like back in the atdi days, at points.
Cedrics hair is ridiculous though.
Seriously though, it was almost THREE HOURS of non stop freakin amazing jams n shit. Take a tent and something to eat for energy.
im off to manchester
tonight :) from the sounds of this it will be good :)
THe new drummer goes nuts on the double bass pedals
its a bit of a shame but it's pretty incredible to watch
He doesnt have a double bass pedal
actually.
Really?
What's he using then? Floor tom? Whats the thing going DU DU DDU DU DU DU DU DU really quickly then?
His one, awesome right foot.
;)
Either way
I DONT LIKE IT
I like it
on the new stuff, not so much on the older songs. I think it's good they got rid of John Bonham Jr for something more inventive though.
Anyone know if I can bring my camera along?
I'm going
but I dont know any of you people.
Still, woop.
...
i'll be there
will be totally awesome!!!!!
...
Not me, cause I'm a massive dumbass.
Of course, if anyone wants to sell me a ticket, I'm listening.
If you'd said earlier: Lo's colleague wanted to sell two.
Maybe they've still got them...
...
Who does?
My girlfriend's colleague
Maybe still.
...
You know what you have to do.
any news on this yet?
a little birdy tells me you ARE coming?
:D
...
Barring any unforseen circumstance - it's on, thanks to Theo and his dude. It's time to psychodelic freak out with our cocks out.
is that a promise?
;)
hell yesh
i'm going, i live in london, i'm going with shit loads of uni mates, can't wait
yeah
gonna get there around 6.30 I think, head gigwards at 8 or so? I dunno. I'm in St Andrew's at the moment, so travel plans could be offset somewhat.
I'm
going. But no one on here knows me. We'll probably be drinking close to the venue until 7 ish then try to get it.
Stage times are 8-11 according to the venue.
Doubt there'll be a support
so they'll probably play from about 8:30 til 11.
Oooh yeah
Cannae wait
there's no support
and in Glasgow they apparently played for over 3 hours.
get in.
We should all wear nametags with DiS instead of our names on.
Great idea that.
i pretty much am wearing my name!
anyone who notices me will see, it's GREAT!!!
if you see a guy with
long ginger hair, emo stylee glasses, a beard, a Reni hat, in the seated area...
it might be me
glasses with fake tears running down them?
actually
yes lots of big tears and a sign saying 'i'm not like them i'm different'
would've got standing tickets if we'd planned to go earlier
that's just 2 of us, i know about 10 other people who will be in the standing area
the fuckers
there's no way we'll see you
not allllllll the way up there, arf.
I'll be there....
...along with my sick missus and nephew and mates who will probably get thrown out for smoking dodgy fags in the bogs.......
this gig is the worst thing that's happened since the smoking ban :'(
truth
remember our birthday gathering last year :(
last day of smoking in pubs :( :( :( :(
i wish i could remember more of it :(
this year i want to go to amsterdam, wecan smoke there!
wanna come?
are the mars volta playing in any of them?
*were
no
i meant in the dam
i missed readeded and thought that you mentioned loads of cafes or something in my head. i'm insene remember :(
Thank Crunchy it's Friday
I'm going tonight and can't wait!! The countdown has begun and I am currently putting amputechture and Bedlam on my ipod ready for when I leave work!!
i'm planning a cig for when they play tetrogamatronatorisorer
or maybe the second half of viscera eyes if they play them!
me too...
...or there's the handy alley way down the side of the Academy if you're feeling brave. Someone had a funny cig at Babyshambles a few weeks ago (that was my one good memory from that night) and the security did jack.
I heard that that Volta are on 8.30 and no support - 180 mins of rock.
fucking hell.
thank god i'm not going. not sure how much of that i could take.
...
Pussy. If only you could rape someone musically, I'd give you such a... uhm, raping.
my advice
after seeing them in manchester last night...take a chair
Spare ticket
I have a spare ticket for this eve.
It's seated upstairs
Does anyone want it?
good choice with seating
:)
I was
dissapointed when I first got it but reading this thread is making me glad I didn't get a standing ticket!!
Boring.
Bunch of tourists, the lot of you.
