End up in FAB cafe

LAST FRIDAY OF THE MONTH
THAT MEANS HOSPITAL RADIO AT THE SUBCULTURE.
EMO AND POP PUNK!
NONONO
NONONONONONONONONONO
i still havent got round to going to hospital radio yet
is it ace?
It can be fun
if you like that sort of thing :)
Yeah, to be fair:
They play The Get Up Kids and it's kind of worth it for that.
I remember the first one like four years ago where they had Cap'n Jazz on the flyer.
They didn't play Cap'n Jazz.
Yeah, the usual plan is
Get drunk on cheap house doubles.
Throw your fists in the air when Get Up Kids/Alkaline Trio/Piebald/ATDI comes on :D
i LOVE that sort of thing :D
one pop punk night every 3 months
is quite enough for me
There's nothing wrong
with a bot of good old pop punk fun.
I would quite easily swap my upcoming evening of seeing a couple of friends bands for good night of pop punk fun.
Cockpit is "OK" on a Friday
But no - not really.
There is an art warehouse party that someone mentioned on Cops and Robbers, but I'm not sure what that means.
I bet I end up in the Brudenell and then an early night, again.
I'm going to Leeds
next weekend. I would like to go somewhere else than the cockpit, someone said Wire/The Wire, any good?
Last time I went to Leeds I ended up in this dance club, I was really drunk, I complained that it was too dark and too loud and left. The next day I realised I paid £12 to get in said club.
Wire can be a bit too 'trendy' for it's own good
the DJs seem more concerned about playing 'cool' songs rather than good stuff to dance to. I've had some good nights in there but it's a bit hit and miss.
Ok, ta
Might be worth giving it a shot one night, seeing as no doubt we'll end up doing something both nights.
I'll have to check to see if there's any gigs going on. No doubt HNIC are playing Leeds this weekend as that always happens.
That's crap
it plays loads of songs that are considered 'uncool' Kaiser Chiefs, The Kooks, Pigeon Detectives and so on.
it's not really worth arguing about
either way it's frequently a bit shit
FAB!
I didn't notice anything in the original post
that mentioned wishing to spend Friday night in the presense of sweaty fat balding men that still live with their mother.
that was probably wax on you went to
I'd have guessed more at Gatecrasher
or Mission. Wax:On is relatively far out of town for people who don't live here to stumble across.
And no, not really. Should have gone to Subculture yesterday, Thursday nights there are the best by faaaaaaar.
nah
sushi and then drum'n'bass in nottingham is far more appetising
.
i was able to sneak a hip flask full of gin into the cockpit a few weeks ago.
no bag check ftw.
in fact i got so drunk i was openly swigging from it towards the end of the night.
good times.
lol cockpit ftw!
we went to a place called the 'dry dock' first
weeeird.
x
LOLZ!
megalolz!
I'm due to go there as part of an 'Otley Run'
If I am lucky I will be so drunk they throw we out. Although they didn't when I smoked reefer on their roof and whited.
my friend crowd-surfed to the from of the queue
when he was on an otley run.
instant crowd favorite and wasn't allowed in, everybody wins!
if only i were there...
i am going to some noodle warehouse instead, yay. what are you doing next friday night? would you like to come to a gig?
YES
but no :(
all the cool kids in leeds
are sitting at home, eating cold pizza and watching peep show whilst all their mates go to the summer ball.
just me?
:)
<3
16 inch pizza
is where it's at.
i might eat matts last slice and tell him he ate it when he got home. he'll never knew.
go for it.
i just nearly fell off the bed because i've drank most of a bottle of wine and it's gone to my head. we're going to have to stay out 'till 5am. that's awake for 24 hours. god help me. are you feeling better?
that sounds like quite a change
for someone who wasn't too up for going out. good luck :P
drunken text please.
feeling better, pizza helped (Y).
lemsip, yeah!
everyone is talking about benicassim. i wish i was at primavera. have a nice night, get well soooon
xxxxxxx
me too
have fun.
au revoir. xxxxxx
.
oh god. is that tonight? arn't nizlopi headlining or someone equally horrific?
i'm so so so so glad i'm not going
sloe gin party for me tonight in leeds. hurrah :D
£40 well not spent
cyber 5! *slap*
yeah.
What is the summer ball?
.
a horrific nightmare which hopefully doesn't really exist.
Isn't that Slam Dunk?
.
what's slam dunk?
the ball is probably the summer time equivelent of going to halo or oceania, except you get to spend 400 pounds on a tuxedo / dress and drink champagne while judging everyone around you and dancing to nizlopi. good times.
i worked all this out from the poster though. it could be the best thing ever...
hahahha
yes
memories...
my brother is djing in leeds tonight
not indie.
