In case you needed remindin'.

― g000blar (g00blar), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 10:50 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh yeah, we're on at 5:30 on-the-dot, and it's FREE.

― g000blar (g00blar), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 11:53 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm so there.

Wild salmonella couldn't drag me away.

Come on down, you know you want to see ILX's new favourite dancing boys.

Everyone read yr Metro on the tube tomorrow.

― g000blar (g00blar), Thursday, 7 December 2006 14:43 (seventeen years ago) link

Are you gonna be in it?

― masonic boom (kate), Thursday, 7 December 2006 14:52 (seventeen years ago) link

There's gonna be "a mention" of us, and the gig.

― g000blar (g00blar), Thursday, 7 December 2006 14:54 (seventeen years ago) link

Interview? Pictures? Or just a listing?

― masonic boom (kate), Thursday, 7 December 2006 14:55 (seventeen years ago) link

She sort of interviewed me on the phone, but I sort of didn't realize it was an interview. She's gonna write what she wants to write, 'cause (I assume) they need to fill space. A bit more than a listing, tho' (I'm guessin').

― g000blar (g00blar), Thursday, 7 December 2006 14:56 (seventeen years ago) link

Hurrah! That's excellent! I will try to get one. ILX0rs who get the train earlier than me and grab all the Metros, please keep an eye out.

You guys are no Bendigo Funk Brothers.

After all, only the rich and famous go to Bendigo Funk Brothers gigs: http://www.last.fm/event/77017/attendance

Ah, congrats, Gooblar, the ILX trolls have finally noticed your band's existence. Prepare to have your very own spoof site and haX0red wikipedia entries soon! You're in the bigtime, baby!

― masonic boom (kate), Thursday, 7 December 2006 15:02 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't really vandalise Wikipedia entries to attack the subjects of said entries, I only really do it to make the 15-year-old Wikilosers cry!

― [electric sound of] esteban buttez (Estie Buttez), Thursday, 7 December 2006 15:03 (seventeen years ago) link

Gah? xpost YES!

― g000blar (g00blar), Thursday, 7 December 2006 15:03 (seventeen years ago) link

Soon you'll have HenFAP and Dom Pasantino rape fantasies all of your own! Aren't you excited?

― masonic boom (kate), Thursday, 7 December 2006 15:05 (seventeen years ago) link

a) Counting the minutes.
b) Any publicity is good etc. etc.
c) Oh Noes!
d) All of the above.

Adding this to ilx-zingers.txt

It's really quite a relief when you get to the point where the trolls bump your gig threads for you.

― masonic boom (kate), Thursday, 7 December 2006 15:10 (seventeen years ago) link

Don't say I don't help out!!

― [electric sound of] esteban buttez (Estie Buttez), Thursday, 7 December 2006 15:10 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm gonna go wrap some presents, but while I'm away, I want you guys to keep this back-and-forth up, preferably on this thread.

― g000blar (g00blar), Thursday, 7 December 2006 15:12 (seventeen years ago) link

How about I just post pictures of Jim's eyelashes and swoon?

(For the record, my sisX0r fancies your drummer. What else is new?)

― masonic boom (kate), Thursday, 7 December 2006 15:13 (seventeen years ago) link

I knew it was a good idea to bring those two hunx in.

― g000blar (g00blar), Thursday, 7 December 2006 15:16 (seventeen years ago) link

Go wrap your pressies, dreamboat! ;-)

― masonic boom (kate), Thursday, 7 December 2006 15:16 (seventeen years ago) link

I thought the flyer needed a bit of a polish. This one's on the house!

HOW PUNK!!!!

― [electric sound of] esteban buttez (Estie Buttez), Thursday, 7 December 2006 15:47 (seventeen years ago) link

Punk is Pink clearly, just like canadian bubble wrap.

― Ed (dali), Thursday, 7 December 2006 15:51 (seventeen years ago) link

I like that our myspace profile remains shitty. OK, I like all of it.

― g000blar (g00blar), Thursday, 7 December 2006 15:52 (seventeen years ago) link

If it wasn't a free show, I'd print that off and try to get in cheap with it.

All MySpaces are shitty. It is the nature of them.

― masonic boom (kate), Thursday, 7 December 2006 15:53 (seventeen years ago) link

OK, am I being totally thick and did I miss something, get an incomplete Metro (mine didn't have any gig listings!) or did the fuX0rs cut the article?

― masonic boom (kate), Friday, 8 December 2006 11:26 (seventeen years ago) link

Nah, it's in there, it's just hardly an 'article'. It's in the 'Free in London this Weekend' bit. A little paragraph on RoTa tomorrow, with a sentence on 'newbies' Gooblar, and their 'catchy dancefloor rock n' roll'.

― g000blar (g00blar), Friday, 8 December 2006 12:55 (seventeen years ago) link

I am a nidiot. I got so distracted by the OOOOH SCIENCE CAN BE FUN paragraph in that that I didn't see yours.

― masonic boom (kate), Friday, 8 December 2006 13:00 (seventeen years ago) link

two months pass...

This FRIDAY, 16 Feb, GOOBLAR plays THE MILLER, by London Bridge.

This is a HEADLINING gig and THIS is how you will find THE MILLER.

― g000blar (g00blar), Monday, 12 February 2007 11:16 (seventeen years ago) link

Sarf London! Yeah! OK, right by my hospital, as well. Maybe I can get a quick dose of radioactivity while I'm there.

Can I plug my gig, too?

Saturday 3rd March! At Night of the Long Swords! While AMP and Lisa are ~~on family holiday~~ undergoing cult deprogramming in India, Kate and Frances are taking over Shimura Curves to do a wibbling drone set with extreme german engineering student pr0n noodly synths and silver capes set of spacepop supporting The Telescopes.

I'll start another thread when ILX is back up.

― masonic boom (kate), Monday, 12 February 2007 11:34 (seventeen years ago) link

You fool! Don't you SEE that ILX is NEVER coming back?!?!? You've PLAYED right into their HANDS!!!

― g000blar (g00blar), Monday, 12 February 2007 11:36 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, they said that about Shimura Curves, too. I said never say never again, but here we are.

― masonic boom (kate), Monday, 12 February 2007 11:39 (seventeen years ago) link

I have a funny feeling that I'm doing something on the 16th, though...

Oh yes, it is the Texan's birthday party. So we are going to the Texan Embassy to drink margaritas and bitch about how bad English Mexican food is.

― masonic boom (kate), Monday, 12 February 2007 11:42 (seventeen years ago) link

on friday i am going to see the finlays at the buffalo bar. unless pb's new not-staying-out-all-night regime includes not actually going out in the first place, in which case maybe i am not.

― emsk ( emsk ), Monday, 12 February 2007 12:03 (seventeen years ago) link

I am, I think, ready for gigs again. Mark H('s friends) this evening, Gooblar on Friday. Yes.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Monday, 12 February 2007 12:09 (seventeen years ago) link

Excellent stuff, Andrew!

and yes, I am not *in* Fanfarlo, but as they keep expanding maybe it's only a matter of time....

― MarkH (MarkH), Monday, 12 February 2007 12:11 (seventeen years ago) link

Wait - the Curves are back in action? Yay!

― StanM (StanM), Monday, 12 February 2007 12:17 (seventeen years ago) link

Yay Curves! Yay Andrew! Boo Texan! Boo Finlays!

― g000blar (g00blar), Monday, 12 February 2007 12:22 (seventeen years ago) link

Yay Radleys!

― StanM (StanM), Monday, 12 February 2007 12:25 (seventeen years ago) link

No boo-ing. Not all Texans are evil. Mah behbeh will sic her dirty dronerock friends on you if you don't take that back:

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g152/Lnachts/tsm12.jpg

OK, they don't look very threatening there. They look like dirty dronerock chipmunks. But still. Be afraid.

I have rough mixes of the Shimuras album in my bag! Ooooh! I had better shut up and mail them to AMPy.

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:28 (seventeen years ago) link

I wish I was in London to come to all my friends' gigs. I hope they are all great and, crucially, well attended.

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:31 (seventeen years ago) link

Josh looks a little like a young bob geldof there.

― Ed (dali), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:31 (seventeen years ago) link

Would you stop with the young Bob Geldorf thing!

Trish, you were in my dreams last night! You dragged me kicking and screaming to a comedy gig. And then each commedian was hotttter than the last, and I was all "ah, so THAT is the point!" But the thing was, the really hott comedians were not as funny as the not so hott ones. And I remember going on a thread on dream ILX and talking about how "hey, I can talk about comedy now! I've been to a club!"

I suppose that should be in the "try something new" thread but it was in a dream, not IRL.

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 11:34 (seventeen years ago) link

Wow, hot comedians. That would be a gig worth going to. I wish I'd been in that dream for real, instead of just appearing in it as a shade.

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:30 (seventeen years ago) link

You were in it for real! We were talking between acts and we were theorising about why the less hott comedians were funnier.

Oh wait, you mean you wish *you* had had the dream for real, or you wish the dream was real, i.e. we were at a club with hott comedians?

I'm confused.

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:38 (seventeen years ago) link

I wish we could both have experienced the dream. I have been to comedy clubs, and hot comedians are few and far between (but don't tell them that).

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:40 (seventeen years ago) link

-Because the really hott ones tend to become actors
-Because the not so hott ones have to develop a sense of humour as compensation for not being hott
-Because perfect people with perfect faces and perfect lives never experience the kind of heartbreak which is the dark strand necessary for true funniness

(at least, these were the things we were saying in my dream.)

Anyway, sorry! Gooblar! Totally hott! Go see the totally hott Gooblar band!

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:42 (seventeen years ago) link

On at 10:30 tonight!
