and ballboy are back too!

good to see some Glasgow shows as part of Tigerfest - but I might just trek through to Dunfermline to see the Idlewild show as Foface are ace!
(Right, what bus do I get???)

yeah...

can't be arsed writing about it?
Then don't.

i will read it in Tesco

... and so should you

Scottish stuff ?

I believe there'll be a poll at jockrock.org and/or isthismusic.com so you can maybe right things there - yeah, to leave out all of Malcolm M, Emma P, King Creosote, Frightened Rabbit, Swimmer One, Magnificents, quite surprising. Or even Biffy Clyro (which I don't like).
Still, the Twilight Sad is in there, grateful for small mercies, eh?

they're playing Edinburgh this month too

with Mouse Eat Mouse, Dumb Instrument and Popup -Bannermans on the 19th. Hoots!

they'd have been better buying Cockburn Street surely

as someone said, Rose St makes it 3 HMVs within a mile. (Even if they are branding it Fopp). Whereas up on the mound it's a goth/skater/emo paradise = possible customers.
And Union St rather than Byres Road? EH?

i miss purple munkie more

no offence, lewis !

if they really took on MZ debt without realising

then they are twats of the highest order. It's reported that the stores themselves were doing ok - and that was the case, the shop managers I met were pretty competent but the central office workers were officious types, forever failing to keep promises and not to be relied on.
Looks like they got ideas above their station, trying to be a nationwide chain - all very well if you are have the business acumen and the expertise, but they had neither. Again, fair enough if you're gambling your own cash, but not when you are messing with other people's jobs and quite literally stealing from them by having them work for free.

aye, but

he's gone for a pint during the second band. How long does it take?
Fair enough on the 2 early bands though, they were probably rubbish anyway.

holy shit

they may turn out to be 'intersting' live but Holy Fuck's album is a stinker of the highest order. an hour of drumming and buzzing noises, I kid you not.
