it asounds like metro might be getting wound up over the right part of it (ie cosmetic-for-vanity-surgery banned - who gives a fuck; abortions banned - er quite important) but just being incoherent about it.

HIS GIRL FRIDAY

Getting battered to the drug of my choice isn't a bad plan, actually. Might be fun. Ooooh, I've got Aguirre to watch, I might do that.

Or I might just buy loads of roses and give them out to single people in town. Maybe put my phone number round it. That could work!

Fieldings have had those funny noses for hundreds of years!

Anyway, he's not for you, Emsk, he's shagging Courtney Love now. Or was at least.

ew no i don't want to do him. far too skinny for a start. just HUNT him! and amy! i don't want to do her either, i just want to go drinking with her.

― emsk ( emsk ), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 12:20 (seventeen years ago) link

We could have a veggy food, wine and boosh evening at mine?

― Ed (dali), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 12:20 (seventeen years ago) link

They're tryin' to make me go to Camden, I say NO!!! NO!!! NOOOOOO!!!!

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 12:21 (seventeen years ago) link

x-post, that sounds like something I would be up for! Even though it's probably you that gave me the dreaded lurgy. Can we watch Black Books, too, since I don't perve over Boosh? Bernard Black can be my bloody valentine.

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 12:22 (seventeen years ago) link

I would have to tidy my flat, which would be a good thing.

― Ed (dali), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 12:23 (seventeen years ago) link

This sounds like a plan!

Anyway, what am I doing mucking about on teh web? I should be ripping MP3s for Ver Payne SisX0rs.

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 12:23 (seventeen years ago) link

(can you shot me mp3 too please?)

― emsk ( emsk ), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 12:28 (seventeen years ago) link

Someone on ILX (Michael Jones perhaps?) caught him!

He has shifty eyes, I do not like him. (Fielding)

OK, just remember NO SHARING, Emsk, these are embargoed until they are properly mixed.

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 12:32 (seventeen years ago) link

do you still want to do mixdown at mine? I am away for the next few weekends, but I can give you keys.

― Ed (dali), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 12:36 (seventeen years ago) link

Let us finish recording first! We are going to try to do another session before ver Payne SisX0rs go to India, but then in March perhaps some proper mixing at yours would be good.

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 12:37 (seventeen years ago) link

I'd like to be around, so I could watch and learn, but it is yours whenever.

― Ed (dali), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 12:37 (seventeen years ago) link

No, that's fine - I would actually rather you were around, as another pair of ears is always good. ("Did you hear that pop?" "What pop?" etc.) Especially someone who is not on the recordings and trying to play up/down their own sounds.

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 12:39 (seventeen years ago) link

great, I can say things like 'there is two much flutter on your bottom'.

― Ed (dali), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 12:40 (seventeen years ago) link

::slaps Ed::

You impertinent engineer!

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 12:42 (seventeen years ago) link

Blame Flanders and Swann.

― Ed (dali), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 12:43 (seventeen years ago) link

All this recording and mixing (and slapping)! I've gotta remember to make you a cd of individual tracks of "piece of me", K8. Unless all this new action on the SC front (good thing) makes you forget about collabos (bad thing).

― g000blar (g00blar), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 13:23 (seventeen years ago) link

No, no, I have not forgotten!

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 13:25 (seventeen years ago) link

Nice. I'll have you know that yr tune is always stuck in my head.

― g000blar (g00blar), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 13:27 (seventeen years ago) link

Ha ha, good! That is revenge for Uh-Oh, then.

Damn, listening to MP3s at work is making me realise all the stupid P's and B's I did not manage to edit out. MUST. USE. POP. SHIELD.

I always do now, but forgot to in the last sessions, and had to edit them all out by hand, which was PAINSTAKING.

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

yay have consulted w n's p and she is also up for food, booze and boosh at ed's. she is watching the um f*tb*l first tho.

― emsk ( emsk ), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 13:29 (seventeen years ago) link

Hang on is this tonight or tomorrow? I thought the fussball was tonight.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 13:36 (seventeen years ago) link

(but I was wrong, as ten-seconds googling reveals)

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 13:36 (seventeen years ago) link

is tonight VD? It is not. (Thank fuck.)

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 13:40 (seventeen years ago) link

Mein gott, I made this curry during the worst of my flu, when I had no sense of smell or taste. My god, it is hotter than I thought it was. Yum.

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 13:41 (seventeen years ago) link

Everybody's gathering round to watch boosh and eat curry? Bah, if there's a bright center to the universe, I'm in the town that it's farthest from.

― Johnney B's got a system (stigoftdumpilx), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 13:42 (seventeen years ago) link

I need:

a) an inflatable FP to sit at my desk and make it look like I'm awake and alert.

b) a nap.

― Forest Pines (ForestPines), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 13:54 (seventeen years ago) link

FP, I could do with one of those, too. Bah.

I am EXTRA SPECIAL EXCITED!!! because I've just confirmed that the special mystery harmony singer at the gig on the 3rd March will be SANDE FROM THE MEMORY MACHINE!!! Still trying to hammer out details, but she's up for it.

So looks like the line-up will be:

-K8 on laptop and guitar and vocals
-Frances "Doom" Morgan on synths and drones
-Sande on vocals

Are you sure you won't be joining us on some drone Mandolin, then, Ed?

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 13:58 (seventeen years ago) link

Let me strum a little on that. (No pickup btw).

― Ed (dali), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:02 (seventeen years ago) link

holy shit.

― emsk ( emsk ), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:03 (seventeen years ago) link

The thought of being on stage with hott girls appeals but at the same time I fear my own inadequacy.

― Ed (dali), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:08 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, holy shit! This is going to be awesome! Memory Curves! Shimura Machine!

Ed, you can just be mic-ed. If you are feeling insecure about your playing, then just move away from the mic. Honestly, all my songs are based on drones. No more than two chords on any of them. It is not hard.

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:10 (seventeen years ago) link

SC back back back?? Wow and, indeed, yay!

With all the changes in personnel, ppl from other bands etc, you should prepare a Pete Frame-style Rock Family Tree!

― Ole Martin Halck (OleM), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:17 (seventeen years ago) link

Meep! Full name! Googlexposed! Oh noes! Ah, never mind.

Name some chords and I will answer you by the end of the week.

― Ed (dali), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:19 (seventeen years ago) link

1 - Dm
2 - G and C
3 - errr, actually I'm not sure what note that is
4 - D I think
5 - A
6 - Err, don't know but chances are it's D
7 - D again, yup
8 - G and F natural but don't worry about it

So, basically, the only notes you really need are D and G and occasionally A.

And people say I'm not drone.

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:24 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm listening to Spiritualized Live Albert Hall thingy for the 1st time in years today. I'd forgotten how much fun the wailing harmonica is/was.

Ed - do it! (You must wear a cape)

― Johnney B's got a system (stigoftdumpilx), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:29 (seventeen years ago) link

I wonder if I can grow a roy wood style beard by then.

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

get a stick-on one

― emsk ( emsk ), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:36 (seventeen years ago) link

Only if I can get stick-on sideburns!

Beards and capes, this sounds like Kerr's dream band. :-)

― masonic boom (kate), Tuesday, 13 February 2007 14:39 (seventeen years ago) link

It is that time of the afternoon, when I need coffee and hott boys.

That is possibly the most ginger I have ever seen Benjamin look. Even his eyebrows look ginger. K-rowr.
