From the Archive - DiS @ SXSW: Our Picks, part four...
i saw
MANDA RIN from bis at iforward russia!.
i nearly died from excitement.
am i not
famous enough now or something?
.
singer from white rose movement at the kills
he's porking VV by the looks of things
four tet chappie infront of us during lcd oundsystem at reading
No you're not
The Duke Spirit. Prince Charles Cinema. Watching that Ramones documentary. About a year ago, mind.
Oh, and the guy out of the Libertines who isn't Pete in Virgin the other day. But I see him everywhere.
hallucinations?
or is he stalking you?
it's true
he was at thar QOTSA gig in Mornington Crescent, and at the dull arse Charlatans in Hammersmith. Is it me, or is the guy wafty eyed?
Yes!
He's almost certainley stalking me. Saw him at the Borderline, Koko and the street in the space of a week once...
saw
him at hella t'other week. and then my boyfriend elbowed him in the stomach.
and omar rodriguez. and cedric bixler. [he didn't elbow them though.]
it was full of fame. fame oozing from every corner.
He would have
broken them if he'd elbowed their skinny little bones
exactly
.
i tapped cedric VERY softly
lest he shatter.
but kieran caught the brunt of my MANLY AWESOMENESS a couple of times. he was looking at me funny.
I saw Rachel Stevens in my downstairs toilet.
I met Russ Abbott at Heathrow Airport. TOP THAT, SLAGS!
i met
sanjay from eastenders in spitalfields market. when i was small.
CONSIDER IT TOPPED. shutchaface.
my friend
saw pete doherty trying to break into a car on Denmark Street about a week ago, unfotunately he couldn't find a policeman to report the incident to.
I saw Minty from EastEnders
talking to Neil Morrisey in one of my locals.
Her from Sleeper was there, too.
And Bernard Butler was then spotted outside the library, across the road from said boozer.
WINNER.
i had
lunchtime boozes with him from sleeper once. very nice chap.
Bellatrix?
i saw the singer from Bellatrix (remember them?) not so long ago and she was heavenly, like an ice goddess
i've seen
pat from little britain getting into her car at a Moto.
i think we can end this thread here.
How would
you recognise the singer from Bellatrix?!? That's uber-indie, nice one!
My mate spotted Simon Mayo yesterday apparently. That is all.
I was
involved in football violence with Ian Beale from Eastenders, yep that's right, Adam Woodyatt. The Woodster. The Ad Man. Woodyrino.
sweet
did he try to glass you for not being true to the mile end mob?
He hid
behind Nick Berry whilst I questioned his passion and motivation. I think Lofty tried to get involved as well and some non-entity from the Bill
This morning
whilst buying milk in my local supermarket I saw the drummer from the concretes, a member of the hives and his sahara hotnights girlfriend and a famous in Sweden stand-up comedian/singer/writer/gay icon
not bad for a trip to the shops
Simon Pegg
buys his morning paper from the same shop as me. I've yet to pluck up the courage to say "hello".
Simon Pegg
once got through to my friend who works in an insurrance claims call center. His car had been stolen or something.
on our way
to v2somethingorother, my friend spotted simon pegg across liverpool street station. and RAN AT HIM. literally. i think they established friendly communication! and then i think she was an extra in spaced. i think. i might be wrong but i don't think i am. all's well that ends well, eh?
I saw
Princess Diana's face on my slice of toast this morning.
Toast?
A crazy man once stopped me in West Kensington to tell me that he'd seen Princess Diana leaping through trees in the park.
Beat that...(He also told me it wasn't safe to leave the car there, because there were armed policemen hiding in a nearby white van. Oh, and that women shouldn't drive.)
Plus I got served by an ex-Byker Grove cast member in a shitty posey bar in Newcastle. She's climbing that ladder of fame.
once
on the 26 bus from hackney [i was coming back from columbia road flower market with my parents], terry from east 17 was sat opposite me. and dressed EXACTLY like how he dressed on the telly.
i hasten to add this was when east 17 were famous, as well. cor.
When
I used to live in Montmartre my nearest cigarette purchase emporium was the same Brasserie where Amelie Poulain worked in that movie
It was an odd experience at 8am on an August morning (or any other) to be sharing my first fag of the day and a coffee with craggy old wheezing frenchmen and back-packed tourists taking endless photographs
i saw
doctor who having a coffee whilst wearing a light blue jumper in manchester and also saw trace from coronation street and nigel jay from north west tonight on the same day.
I...
just saw a bloke who looked just like Johnny twatface from Razorlight.
shuddup
NO WAY!?!
montmartre
<3.
it hurts, how much i love it there. i wish i could go back. and. like. stay there.
this may be a lie. it's a very nice place though.
Simon Pegg
lives in Bury, seymour? thats crazy
All...
in the same shop?
Question...
directed at Anschul.
i er
served dave grohl a pint last night.
its a shame it was at a coldplay gig.
one in a cafe, one out jogging and the couple at the checkout
I have been very
fortunate to have seen all of the towers of london in camden and yes they are as cool as they look in the nme!
Arggg...
I swear all they do is hang around the streets of Camden, they always seem to be there.
It's just as well
That I haven't seem 'em, cos I hate their fucking guts. They are a poor excuse for a band.
Most obvious statement...
I've ever heard, DINGDINGDING, what do we have for him Johnny?
*her...
soz. Just saw profile.
I saw Paul Smith the other day
Fuck knows what he was doing in Leicester. Apparently he has his hair like that all the time.
I'm stood next to
Mat from Miss Black America!
yeah but we all know Seymour is the most famous one out of MBA don't we?
;-)
There was this bloke...
...elbowing my mate like an ignorant twat, on the balcony outside Royal Festival Hall at the Coldplay meltdown gig a few years back.
So we moved places and then realised it was James whathisnamebadmodeltype with some small girl. Who was Kylie.
Rubbish story really. Saw the gormless one from Gomez at Mojave 3 Union Chapel Studio show. Now that's celeb spotting.
TODAY
English football legend Rodney Marsh got on the same bus as me.
End of thread. I win.
Does he qualify...
for a bus pass?
and...
Did you say anything to him?
No,
but now I know where he lives, which is just round the corner from me.
I was thinking of talking to him about Gillette Soccer Saturday but then didn't.
Yeh..
he was fired wasn't he?
oh my gish!
you saw PAUL SMITH?! you should have licked his face... or said hello. once, ian lee and skinny guy from the office (also in pirates) walked past me whilst i was waiting for a bus at a bus stop.
gosh.
why the fuck do i do that all the time? im a retard.
Hmmmm...
they're both almost identical in every way, except for facially, and you say you saw them together, conspiracy alert.
i spotted myself in crouch end tonight.
