hello all, <ink polaroid>this is an ink polaroid which was taken on friday night. in it you can see myself and ms gina t (also of this parish). we're standing on a very small stage with a pair of makeshift decks in front of us. we're about to put on a cd which comes in a yellow cover because a very drunk boy has just asked us to play his favourite song. we're wondering if we should because we only just played 'the boy with the arab strap' and two b&s songs in ten minutes might be too many for most people. it's the end of the night and a lot of people have already gone home, so we're going to decide to play 'there's too much love' after all.</ink polaroid> and now to complete my 15 minutes... the mighty ladybird ladbird featuring several sinisterines (including myself) has got through to the semi-finals of battle of the bands at york uni. we're all very excited, if slightly nervous, especially because our drummer missed the last practice because he was interviewing the delgados in leeds and he's only played one of the songs we're doing once. but i'm slightly hoping that we don't get through because i'm not sure if we have enough songs to get to the final. although i would like to resurrect our cover of llpj, even though i can never get the high notes that monica queen can. mark hester wrote about ice skating. i haven't done that in ages, but at my oh-so-posh prep school we had ice skating lessons at queen's ice in queensway (it's called something else now like leisure box, that sounds a bit dirty to me), i got my grade two. but i was never very good at it. some of the girls could do pirouettes on ice (!) and everything. now i have to go and have a shower because i've been writing an essay since five o'clock this morning, and i feel all cruddy and skanky. dalai lama (check) cliff richard (check) pip pip, FB X **************************************************************** http://featherboa.blogspot.com - bandwagonesque http://groups.yahoo.com/group/yorksini - big up to the york sinister massive. innit _________________________________________________________________ It's fast, it's easy and it's free.
