hello babies Yes, another ridiculously expensive weekend has passed (three squid for a pint of guinness????) in a haze of half heard conversations, "energetic" dancing and bad karaoke. Can one have drunken ears? After about 6 o'clock on saturday i couldn't hear a bloody thing anyone was saying, so the smiling and nodding tactic was adopted, except when v-twin were mentioned when it became a furious shaking of the head. Furious shaking of head was also adopted when the GEDGE played hole, but air guitar was (hopefully) kept to a minimum. Usually i wouldn't, not to Hole anyway, but i was feeling rather exuberant following baxendale, who made perfect sense on saturday, and succeeded in making all the following bands sound rather dull and lifeless. The whole day had made me feel happy, as i realised that i knew about 10 times as many people there as i had when out in Cheltenham the night before, and it's good to see your friends isn't it. Energetic dancing was not confined to the small dancefloor near the bar either. The Actionettes performed on the stage, with their dazzling display of fantasic 60s moves, 12 girls surely all descended from Pan's People, although following much debate in the upstairs gallery, the one second from the right on the last song was declared the most "up for it" Karaoke is a funny thing, I just can't help myself, although i'll leave it to others to dissect my performance. Maybe we should have a sini-karaoke at some point :) ...but i know HE'S A MORON, GORDON IS A MORON xoxo CarsmileSteve PS, I think i've got a spare ticket for Broadcast on wednesday, if any oxo-cubes were thinking of going. Not that it's sold out of anything yet, but you'd save a squid, innit. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
