I was skulking around mcr on saturday and passed a mass of adolescent emo children congregating on the lawn outside urbis (where mick rock is showing some photos whoo) do any users of dis belong to this collective and do they remember seeing a rod stewart lookalike strolling around at lunchtime?
my point is, why is this area used by these lot? safety in numbers? is it a good place to skateboard? and why do they stick them black hoop things in their ears that make them turn into elephant ears?
personally i think they need a messianical figure to preach to them and show them the error of their ways. teach them about sam cooke and the beatles

Rod stewart lookalike? why who was that?
The Mick Rock exhibition sounds good. Hopefully it's a bit more detailed than the punk one.

"Look at you you bunch of deadbeats! What are you inbreds!" because they did look amazingly alike.

Off topic a little, but about the Mick Rock exhibiton. I went to have a look inside, and got pretty bored to be honest. Almost every single photo is of Lou Reed, David Bowie or the Ramones. And those nasty foreign security guards wouldn't let me use the magic lift either.

Re: EMO collective outside Urbis in Manchester
Hmm I don't think I'll go to this then.
Re: EMO collective outside Urbis in Manchester
Ooh, Patricide, have you seen the new Burnley buses driving around? They've been refurbished and are now black and red, with tinted windows and a huge witch on the side.
Next time you see one, think to yourself... 'Wrightylew could be on there... wow!'.

'There doesn't seem to be much litter or tramps'
got to love Oldham Street
Re: EMO collective outside Urbis in Manchester
The Sun. We love it.
Does anyone find it strange how there's 2 HMV's within about... 80m?
Re: EMO collective outside Urbis in Manchester
Re: EMO collective outside Urbis in Manchester
i've seen them buses. the 'witch trail' ones that look dead posh and are probably really expensive to ride on. i either get the train to my humble abode in salford or walk.
the two hmv thing is a bit odd. the one closest to cross street (i think) is a lot better and has two floors.
oldham street is ace. it has the mint lounge, night and day, the dry bar, vinyl exchange, piccadilly records, a geeky comic book shop, the 'oxfam emporium' AND an everything for a pound shop. what more could you ask for?
Re: EMO collective outside Urbis in Manchester
All my friends have gone home/are sick this weekend so I will go and see the Mick Wall doofer and report back again. Pictures of Iggy and the Ramones = good.
Re: EMO collective outside Urbis in Manchester
I quite like Urbis.
Re: EMO collective outside Urbis in Manchester

in fact
contrary to what is suggested by that message, hes not stupid at all. hes lovely.
further
by that message, i meant my message. obviously.
oh dear, this is a mess.
Re: EMO collective outside Urbis in Manchester
I quite like it too, in that it's something nice to walk past on my way to work at Selfridges.
Get a job, youths!

Unless you enjoy 50000000 pictures of Lou Reed and Dave Bowie I don't think the Mick Rock thing is worth your £3.50. There isn't much there really.
