Your optimistic eyes seem like paradise to someone like me

Had a spiffy dinner at the cross keys with Julie and Neal even if it did end up a bit pricey due to having 3 courses including the cheeseboard and bottled cider. Ah well you're only young rapidly hurtling uncontrollably towards middle age once. we then failed to scope out the karaoke place as they're not actually open yet. you think they'd mention that when emailing me attempting to entice me into their web of empty orchestral warblings. so I forced Julie at knife point to accompany Neal and I for a couple more beers at various Leeds hostelries that we don't normally drink in (i.e. not the wrens)

Black Sheep was quiet - no doubt due to double whammy of post whitby lurgy and cashflow. I ended up working the bar for the last hour and a bit as it didn't seem worth keeping the barman there, John Paul and I had to change the cider barrel - woo excitement - maybe I should give up the day job.

I was rather upset to hear that the March Violets thing next month, which is the same night as Transmission, actually goes on till 3am. when we first heard about the gig we figured it'd be a great opportunity to flyer it as an unofficial after party, let people in for cheap with ticket stubs and fill the club with new and old goth faces, thus boosting the still relatively new night - but now they're all going to stay at the met. *sob*

im sorry!!

not my fault though!

and i dont think the band meant to do it to hurt you!

i think they wanted to make the night "worth it" to the punters they hope will appear from all over the world (judging by their my space gig info including "nearest airports" in their how to get there spiel!)

Nah no worries - Paul told me earlier at Black Sheep. Hey Ho - I'm sure there'll be people there :)

I have no idea who the March Violets are, so I won't be there!

I have to say I'm kinda surprised they're playing such a big venue given even I, an original 80s goth, only really know one of their songs!

(me being t'arbitor of all things goth of course ;) )

Sam night as Amalgamation too - even though that's meant to end at 9, I expect a knock-on effect for us. Boo.

[sarah-orange.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure it will as you'll have pretty different audiences won't you? and it'd be possible for people to attend most of amalgamation and do the gig if they're feeling that way inclined.

Yeah, but 2pm until 3am is a very long day! Granted most people won't stay out that long but we need people in at 2pm for all the bands we've got - eeek!
