Camdencrawlcentric
Ok. Let this be the last Camden Crawl thread. But also the most important.
If you're not going, don't get huffy about it, just ignore this thread. In fact, let it die now...
So. Wristbands can be picked up from 3ish at the G-Lounge. Myself and a couple of my mates will be in Camdonia from about 1.30ish, possibly indulging in some terrible but cheap food and a cheap sharpener at the Wetherspoons up near the Barfly end of town. Come and join us. Everyone. Then we can PLAN and ORGANISE and DRINK and COLLAPSE.
Alan you have to get there early, as you're my mate Foggy's designated carer for the evening. Thank you.
no.
If I actually manage to get the ticket I've paid for
then I shall be around some time after about 4 as I have an interview type thingy at 3.30 in Whitechapel.
i have to pick up
mine and gemma's wristbands so i'll be there round 3. who wants to hang out with me? anyone? :)
Theres loads of tickets I've found
so I'm definjately coming. So I can eventually meet all of you in a sober-not-allowed-to-drink state. Although I have work, so won't be there till about 6pm - which could be a problem for Stabby3 giving me my ticket. Anyway um... see you there.
We're going to be there from 1.30
I'm going to create a spreadsheet or perhaps a timeline to work out my evening's entertainment.
You'll find this in a bin on Camden High Street by 4.30pm
ha!
I read that as 'you'll find me in a bin on camden high street by 4.30pm'
I'll be there about
5 I reckon!
Coolio
The Good Mixer and somewhere else will have drinks offers on, so we could land in there after picking up wristbands from about 4-5ish.
And Old Rosie cider for £1.99
to start the day off.
& a bottle of Jamesons
to finish it off?
I'll be there for 5.30!
Let me know where you'll all be :)
someone make sure I don't get slaughtered at this please
I want to see more bands than I did last thursday, and remembering it would be nice too.
No worries
I( don't have money to get drunk so I'll kep you relatively sober!
thankyou!
I clearly need some kind of mentor to stop me from making a drunken (and considerably poorer) tit of myself. :)
red wine = BANNED.
I'll
be the bad angel on your other shoulder. Mmmm, my one night out of the month....driiiiink....
Hang on
Homesick is your mate's mentor but himself needs a mentor?
This is sounding like it could be dangerous...
Me and bamos
as good and bad angels!
Now that is going to be funny!
when do gigs
start??
A six heure
Je pense. Mais, je ne sais pas exactement.
I'm on antibiotics
:( no getting wankered for me :( That'll be my first ever whole week of not drinking since I started.
Man that's harsh
There's only like one strain of antibiotics you can't drink on and you get landed with it. :-(
Welcome to my world
SCL.
It's pretty boring.
It's been okay so far,
It's weird watching my friends get drunk without me tho.
that's rubbish scl!!!
at least you won't have a hangover the following day...
Wetherspoons should be reserved for morning drinking only...
isn't that right lordscopie?
There aren't any left in Camden
unless you count Lloyds, which I wouldn't...
What's
that one up by the Lock tavern/Barfly then? Is that not a Wetherspoons? *confused*
No. Adie pointed out it hasn't been for some time
and they have now actually changed the front so it's more obviously. Check the Wetherspoons website and you'll see...
they've also changed its name
it's a FAKE WETHERSPOONS.
also
why is there not a SUBWAY in camden?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!
What are you on about,
I saw The Subways in Camden *abandon any chance I ever had of being taken seriously ever again*
BIG GAY BEAR.
Well, it looks like I'm not coming.
And £30 less well off.
Great.
Just great.
Don't you LOVE ticketing companies?
If anyone has a number I can phone
to try and reason with the promoters, that'd be ace.
Boo. That's not good.
:-(
Why you not coming? Got a ticket to sell?
I have a ticket.
In a sorting office in Fleet.
With absolutely no way of getting it.
I have spent the last hour on the phone to seetickets and royal mail.
ARGH.
angerangeranger
Well there are some tickets floating around on gumtree if you want the links
But it means paying twice. :(
But you could maybe get a refund from Royal Mail at a later date...
Wolfmother
are playing at 5pm in the G Lounge - not sure if they are playing again later in the evening:
http://www.nme.com/news/wolfmother/22828
Oooh!
I need to be there for this!!!!!!!
fantastic
i don't really post here that often but i am kinda excited that i may bump into such luminaries as bamos and homesick-alien tomorrow. erm... i just wanted to type luminaries. if you see a fat hairy guy coughing into his cider and complaining about being in london, that'll be me
(and also me)
The exclaimation mark shortage
is once more laid at your door, Han.
They're also
playing virgin on oxford street on munday if y'all cannae make it...
oh GOD
looks like i'm WORKING at the thing and by 'working' i really mean 'standing by a door for an hour or so looking grumpy'. so i'll be stuck to the purple turtle for a while. i think 'switches' are playing there. i have literally no idea who else.
You? Looking grumpy?
NEVER.
i know!
who woulda thought!
I'm going, but people know that already...
you might want to get your tickets from the G lounge sharpish, Wolfmother are playing there at 5 O'Clock, unless you like them that is.
ah the wonder of internet cafs.
someone text me and let me know, i shall hook up with y'all at some point i would assume.
Ahhh, done and done.
I'm coming tomorrow. SWEET. But I'll be sober and it'll be early evening. Not so sweet.
See you all there. Or about. Or something.
More tickets on gumtree btw...
More announcements
New Rhodes - Colours at 6.30 or is it colourz, can't remember
Nope
not coming now - It's all gone tits up. Balls. Balls. Balls.
I want to cry so much.
I'm so gutted about this whole affair :(
My ticket
is locked in a sorting office in Fleet.
Apparently a confirmation email anything of that sort isn't good enough to swap for a wristband.
Today sucks.
(oh, and I didn't get my nose pierced, although my housemate did get her belly button done)
It's shut.
And a 2 hour round trip away.
And I am seeing Ben Kweller/having a haircut/having an interview and then it'll be time for the crawl.
I'm working on something. Maybe.
I keep reading this title as 'Commandercoolcentric'
How odd...
don't you mean colonel_kcentric?
Anyway, Fiona, get your ticket on that "hot lead" I gave you?
Right, got two tickets in the pipeline. Don;t find out till tomorrow if they'll come through.
It's all very tense innit.
Woo
I'm excited, despite the meh line up
*rumours I am going to start spreading*
The Flaming Lips are playing the Albert Hall on the 22nd. They are playing in Edinburgh tonight. They seem to like this secret gig malarkey too as they did one at SXSW this year... *strokes beard*
The Go! Team are supporting them at the AH, so maybe them too.
hello!
i am not going BUT as i work but 10 doors up from the Mixer i could meet some of you nice people for a post-work drink at approx. thirty seconds past 5:00pm?
i
shall see some of you around caaaamden, no doubt... i shall also be crawling tonight. will be in the old town around 6ish...
Where is the
mixer?????
Just up on Inverness Street, after the market bit
beyond Bar Vinyl and Undersolos...
corner of inverness street
and arlington road.
Diolch
Bechgyn bach!
the mushroom-related brain damage affecting you again?
poor hannah :-(
You are really cheeky
today!
I like it - keep it up!
:(
Still no luck.
Bastards!
I'm sure we can get you in at some point!
I wish I just hadn't managed to buy a ticket.
At least that way I'd be upset, but £30 richer.
:(
can't they at least give you a refund?
Or use your time that you're not at the crawl to blow up SeeTickets?
I like that plan.
I've not given up all hope yet though.
Stabby3?
Did you not
take his ticket?
I forgot all about this
oh dear another regret!
No, I pulled out but told Fiona
to take it as he was being generous and selling it for face value.
But I told Fiona the moment I tols Stabby3 I didn't want it. Curious.
I still might come but I needed a pair... gumtree contact still faffing.
Please come!
*crosses fingers moker will be there*
I sent him a note.
And have heard nothing.
Sob.
I'm off now
Red sonic youth t-shirt and ginger
Say hello. Or don't...
I can't even remember who's playing.
OH YEAH
anyone planning to go the mixer this afternoon, BE WARNED as i walked past not 15 minutes ago and it was hosting a post-Funeral mean with lots of sad-looking people wearing black.
no, they weren't goths.
Was that the death of Britpop
Before your time (BG) Gunners (insert etc etc)
"lighthearted" or whatever
i'm very very bored of comments like that. kindly stop, or fuck off.
*INSERT SMILEY FACE HERE*
sometimes gunners yr a cross between Rik Mayal and Kevin the teenager
if the latter had been written by Victoria Wood after an anyeurism - learn to take a bit of a ribbing* on occasion
hey lighten up, 'ddddduuuude'
* slang for pisstaking used mostly in the 30s which by my reckoning was over 40 years before I was born
INSERT IRRITATED HAIR FLICKING GESTURE
at the end of the day
i'm not going to be insulted and i'm not going to rise to anything you say, because there's no point.
i'm just bored of the constant comments. making them in that thread? annoying, but fair enough. making them in threads several weeks later? annoying. making them now, in response to perfectly normal posts? fucking irritating.
i can take a "ribbing" if the mood is of such. that was just dull.
i think I will call you Rik from now on
after that blast of petulance - lighten up for heaven's sake!
it's not "petulance"
as i said, it's just VERY VERY BORING. you made one joke, and you keep making it over and over. dull dull dull.
You two are great.
Thanks.
i try.
*takes a bow*
Yeah it's all down to Prole's vintage (BG) material
:-D
Its a variation on one riff
youre a smashing pumpkins fan so you know what I mean then
"No they weren't goths"
I shouldn't find that funny...
I'VE GOT A TICKET!
(hopefully)
Yay!!!!
Woohoo!
See you in mixer 5pm!
You guys suck
You make me want to go and get drunk now.
Regrettably I am in work as normal and can't
I have rehearsals after work too. And work tomorrow. Nope, no drinkage for Theo.
I'll be in Camden
from 5!
Han xxx
I hate all of you
I have a silly work thing to go to.
Oh gutted
I wish you were going to be there it won't be the same without you!
ACE
well done!
Right after much faffing for 2 whole days
I'm not coming. Arses.
Have fun.
I'm coming and stuff
find Bamos and Homesick, and look down.
And you'll spot
us!
