Come on, Lexi, you know we only deal in fwuffy kittens round these parts.

Way back, I went to see Belle and Sebastihen's Tuesday gig at the ABC in
Glasgow with Ailsa nee Ross and somebody even taller than Big Stu who used
to be on the list for a very short time a very long while ago.  Ailsa and
I thought it was very strange that we didn't know anyone there.  We
searched and searched for upside-down badges and friendly faces, but no
luck (rants about picnics, meet-ups and Ye Olden Tymes for a couple of
paragraphs, then thinks better of it and deletes it all).  Oh, we did see
Stephen Pastel, though.

THEN, when the gig ended, we realised that there was a bit for VIPs
upstairs and who should come down those stairs but some dead snooty types
eg. Chrys and Julya Lynyrd, "Crazylegs" Keith Watson and Patrick
Municipool!  We comforted ourselves with the knowledge that we were down
with the real fans, even if half of them looked like they were only there
because they quite like that one at the end of Teachers.

Should I say something about the actual, like, music?  OK, then.  It was
rather good.  They are 'tight' these days and also 'in tune'.  They did a
lot of songs off IYFS, presumably because they were still well rehearsed
from the album gig in London.  Actually, there was a lot of old stuff and
the new stuff was good too.  Only one I wasn't so keen on (sorry Stevie),
and Stupot forgot the words once, so it almost felt like Ye Olden Tymes
(rant etc.)

Oooh, and we stood under Europe's Largest Glitterball.  It was kind of
dazzling and also very big, as you'd expect, I suppose.  When the lights
went down a bit, you could see the whole crowd reflected in its little
squares.  It made me feel a bit misty, or maybe that was the booze from
the ABC's amazing bottle bar (really, they do have an excellent selection.
 I mean it!)

In other news, I have a new job, and they are sending me to India!  And my
vaccinations are making me feel like I've been hit by a truck.  Poor old
...
