hey kids, so... i meant to report back about meetup / gig stuff that happened last week ages ago, but i've been busy failing job interviews and waiting for the plumber (who still hasn't come and we've had no hot water since last tuesday). it seems that everything there was to say has been said, but i'll just add that it would be wise to remember to never leave will haigh in a room alone with chewy sweets and dairylea...eugh. i also need to assert that mr c. geddes is the nicest man in the whole world, he spent a good ten minutes running round the appollo waving his laminate at anyone who would look in an attempt to get me and mat (who incidently was in the year above ben apps at school - fact!) past the bouncers and into the backstage area. once we were in it was something of a disappointment, i think keats would have muttered something about unheard melodies being sweeter, but then we clearly wouldn't be allowed into the really secret inner sanctum where struan keeps his drugs and whores. oh, i was quite determined not to make this another reporting back post as i've just read about fifty such things, so i'll just mention how after the gig i danced until i couldn't breathe anymore, and how much i ached in the morning. its also nice to have heard the chicken related story of what happened on the bus. i always miss the best bits. but there was serious drinking to be done and i secretly knew it would be just as cheap to get a taxi. some people said things in posts that i meant to comment on, but i've completely forgotten what any of them were which is always handy, so i'll leave you for now, love and humous, fiona. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
