Sinister: belleandsebastian: a little happening in london this coming sunday

[JaMeS]

ooooh, sounds like fun! fingers crossed it'll be fine an sunny on
Sunday...ive never been to a B&S picnic thing before, but i may very well
just venture down to this one. im going to the Gentle Waves gig, of course,
with a mate who has a cunningly placed flat fairly close by, but ive no idea
who'll be at the picnic affair since ive never been to one before. how many
people are we all expecting, roughly? i hope im not the only student
there...who'll join me???

>the glorious sun on saturday inspired us and since the weather seems
permitting, a
>picnic has been planned for this sunday (easter sunday) in london.
>
>why?
>
>well, apart from keeping with tradition (belle and sebastian picnics ran
>throughout the summer last year, and before that i was helping run picnics
for the
>three previous years for a nightclub i worked for) we've noticed that a lot
of new
>people have surfaced on the mailing lists and websites recently, so it
would be
>nice to get together and have some preliminary introductions and a hell of
a lot
>of fun.
>
>we'll also be using this as a general meet before the london gentle waves
gig, as
>previously mentioned the gentle waves is going to feature six eigths of
belle and
>sebastian, so we expect a lot of you will be around london that day.
>
>what will happen?
>
>well, we'll play football, board games, drink, eat, have a good laugh,
resurrect
>some old games (stuck in the mud is always pretty damn hilarious), and
generally
>have a bloody good time. we'll also be giving away some tickets for the
gentle
>waves gig that night, some copies of the weathershow 7", i'm not sure how,
maybe
>we'll have a connect 4 league (jeepster staff are excluded!) or something.
>
>who can attend?
>
>everyone, anyone, friends even, no-one has to like belle and sebastian, or
even be
>of a similiar age group to the rest of us. that's not the point. the point
is to
>meet people who you might have met on-line, off-line, to give friendships a
chance
>with people you might not have normally talked to. the common thread is
that we
>all share the same interests and that gives us a good chance of getting
along
>well. and since this is the first proper meet in london since the whole
brit
>palaver, i'm sure we'll have a pretty celebratory tone to the whole affair.
>
>where is it?
>
>it'll be held at the traditional spot of primrose hill, simply head to
camden town
>tube station and wait outside at 3pm and we'll all walk up to the hill
together.
>if you know where the hill is, just meet us on the summit at around 3:30pm.
we'll
>probably move to a pub at dusk and from there onto the gentle waves gig :)
>
>what should i bring?
>
>well we ask everyone to donate a bit of food to the kitty. this helps
create quite
>a feast whilst at the same time being cheap for everyone. if you're unsure
what to
>bring, think along the lines of pringles and dips, veggie sausage rolls,
pasta
>salad, fairy cakes, etc. we'll provide all the plastic cutlery, plates and
a few
>cups along with some cadburys creme eggs (well, it IS easter!).
>
>if anyone has any questions not answered by the above, simply mail me, i'll
be
>pleased to help, but note that there may be a small delay (1 day) in
replying
>since we're moving office this week and my e-mail is at home :)
>
>cheers, and see you all there :)
