― tissp! (tissp!), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:02 (seventeen years ago) link

Maybe I won't show up now, just to add to the drama!!

― marianna longmire (marianna lcl), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:11 (seventeen years ago) link

There isn't a stage to puke on is there? It's more will she puke on the unfortunate front row?

do you guys knwo if the social has a TV (that will be showing sky sports 2?)

― ken c (ken c), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:48 (seventeen years ago) link

No TV in the Social. Definitely not downstairs, where the party will be taking place.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:53 (seventeen years ago) link

Good luck for the gig kate, marianna et al. One day I will see the mighty Curves in action again.

― Dr.C (Dr.C), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 16:56 (seventeen years ago) link

― Tyrone Slothrop (Tyrone Slothrop), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 17:08 (seventeen years ago) link

― ken c (ken c), Wednesday, 6 December 2006 17:11 (seventeen years ago) link

Well? The Belgian chapter of the Shimurajugend demands a review! :-)

― StanM (StanM), Thursday, 7 December 2006 10:09 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, who puked?

― pfunkboy (Kerr), Thursday, 7 December 2006 10:17 (seventeen years ago) link

What a fricking to do.

― marianna longmire (marianna lcl), Thursday, 7 December 2006 10:48 (seventeen years ago) link

Oooh, what happened? (I'm sad that I can only go to Shimura Curves gigs vicariously.)

― Johnney B has zeros off the line (stigoftdumpilx), Thursday, 7 December 2006 10:50 (seventeen years ago) link

was it good? what did i miss?

― Tyrone Slothrop (Tyrone Slothrop), Thursday, 7 December 2006 11:16 (seventeen years ago) link

i hope the champagne was drunk at least :)

― substitute, mitya for him (mitya), Thursday, 7 December 2006 12:18 (seventeen years ago) link

On the plus side, June Sarpong thinks I'm a very stylish girl.

― marianna longmire (marianna lcl), Thursday, 7 December 2006 14:54 (seventeen years ago) link

Congratulations on being voted THE WORST MUSIC ACT IN THE FUCKING WORLD, gals!

― [electric sound of] esteban buttez (Estie Buttez), Thursday, 7 December 2006 15:05 (seventeen years ago) link

June Ping Pong - call her by her name!

Speaking of stylin', I've just realised I didn't brush my hair this morning!!

The shame! I feel so naughty! But that's what you get when your money is occupied NOT RECIEVING YOUR PROMISED DELIVERY.

― Sarah (Science of Unforunate Events), Thursday, 7 December 2006 15:09 (seventeen years ago) link

Well, I might as well announce this here before the rumours get out.

The show last night will be the band's last.

Shimura Curves are over. I quit last night. Marianna quit this afternoon.

Thanks for your support.

― masonic boom (kate), Thursday, 7 December 2006 16:37 (seventeen years ago) link

WAHT!?!?

― g000blar (g00blar), Thursday, 7 December 2006 17:01 (seventeen years ago) link

um, what happened?

― M Grout (Mark Grout), Thursday, 7 December 2006 21:40 (seventeen years ago) link

Results 1 - 10 of about 57 for shimura curves reunion rumours. (0.23 seconds)

― StanM (StanM), Thursday, 7 December 2006 21:59 (seventeen years ago) link

Everything good comes to a natural end and I think that's happened now.

Cheers girls, it was a lot of fun. I'll remember these songs, and those performances, as long as I live. And when I think of 2006 they'll be among the first things that come to mind. It was awesome.

skepticism/denial

― StanM (StanM), Friday, 8 December 2006 03:18 (seventeen years ago) link

when's the Behind The Music episode?

― bliss (blass), Friday, 8 December 2006 03:25 (seventeen years ago) link

when's the "Behind the Breakup" posting?

― M Grout (Mark Grout), Friday, 8 December 2006 08:45 (seventeen years ago) link

Sorry, you can't split up until you've had a run of at least 3 top 10 hits. And I reckon you could have had them - I'm serious. Sod all this 'natural end' business - STICK AT IT! You have something very special - real pop smartness, great songs, you look great and you stand out from the other dross without even trying. Don't chuck it all away AGAIN Kate - this could have been the one, and now you'll never know. The world is full of people who had 'a great band' once (ha I should know) but packing it in is always the easy way, sticking it out through the bad times because you believe in the music is harder, but it's the only way. And your music is worth believing in.

Of course I don't know what the reasons are, and it's none of my business, but I'd bet there's nothing that can't be quickly fixed by talking it through.

― Dr.C (Dr.C), Friday, 8 December 2006 09:39 (seventeen years ago) link

Dr C OTM - I'm sure there are all kind of reasons why this is for the best, but disproving the Shimura Curves Hypothesis makes me sad.

― Johnney B has zeros off the line (stigoftdumpilx), Friday, 8 December 2006 09:53 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm laying off the 'hypotheses' as I have no idea.

My guess is "give it 3 months off" and maybe then it'll resolve, whatever it is.

Maybe there will be a 'statement' sometime.

― M Grout (Mark Grout), Friday, 8 December 2006 10:48 (seventeen years ago) link

Ack

― substitute, mitya for him (mitya), Friday, 8 December 2006 10:52 (seventeen years ago) link

Things don't resolve - you resolve things.

― Dr.C (Dr.C), Friday, 8 December 2006 10:55 (seventeen years ago) link

Thanks for saying nice things about the band, guys. I (and I'm sure the others) really appreciate it.

I'm sure there will be statement at some point, when we've discussed it. Until that time, could you please respect the privacy of the five of us, as a band, and as people, and keep the gossip and the hypothesising off public forums?

Thanks.

― masonic boom (kate), Friday, 8 December 2006 10:56 (seventeen years ago) link

Things get less important with time.

Anyway, I'll lay off the 'hypotheses' even though. (xpost exactly)

― M Grout (Mark Grout), Friday, 8 December 2006 10:57 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't see any gossip and hypothesising, Kate. (I might be looking in the wrong place though).

― Dr.C (Dr.C), Friday, 8 December 2006 11:04 (seventeen years ago) link

Well, stop before it starts, probably.

I was thinking about starting a "so how did your band fall to bits (gloriously or not)" but maybe not a great idea for the moment...

― M Grout (Mark Grout), Friday, 8 December 2006 11:07 (seventeen years ago) link

Latest gossip: That bloke everyone saying Pete Doherty murdered. One of the members of Shimura Curves actually murdered him.

Out of respect for the band, I won't name which member did it at this point in time!!

― [electric sound of] esteban buttez (Estie Buttez), Friday, 8 December 2006 11:19 (seventeen years ago) link

Yes, and considering two of the ladies aren't even ILXors (and therefore probably have no idea about this sandbox), I don't think it's particularly fair to have any sort of a forum about it here.

― marianna longmire (marianna lcl), Friday, 8 December 2006 12:36 (seventeen years ago) link

the price of fame

― sede vacante (blueski), Friday, 8 December 2006 12:44 (seventeen years ago) link

behave yourself sede ;)

― kv_nol (kv_nol), Friday, 8 December 2006 12:50 (seventeen years ago) link

I think you should carry on until you have no original members, like Soft Machine or Dr. Feelgood. That should be the ultimate aim of any band.

― Dr.C (Dr.C), Friday, 8 December 2006 13:01 (seventeen years ago) link

lol heroin

― amon (amon), Friday, 8 December 2006 13:02 (seventeen years ago) link

Okay a couple of people connected with the band have requested I lock this thread for a bit and, as its by extension a thread about them themselves, I'm going to do that.
