sweet. how did the garage go? it used to feel like i was playing there once a week at one point in about 2004/5. not been back since it re-opened.

i'm playing at some little night in hither green on thursday. iccarus club? might be fun.

Not been there. Cannot come either, broke. Sadface

Garage was nice inside now, shame about the sound though. The upstairs room isn't built for loud music

Its ten years on Thursday since I joined the only band I've been in. Its obviously no longer a ongoing thing; but its strange seeing some of them play in new bands; peculiar band envy.

All very strange.

That never goes away... It is strange...

And then you get Josh Homme as a front man.

He hates that, but it's sooooooo true...

Are we still doing recruitment in the pimping thread?

Myself and a friend (who I have played music with for years) have guitar and bass covered for a new project we've been working on for a few months. We're looking for a drummer now to get instrumentals nailed, then hope to find a vocalist.

We're playing relatively up-beat post-hardcore/melodic hardcore along the lines of some combination of Hot Cross, Touche Amore, Joyce Manor and any number of other vaguely shouty/melodic bands.
Hoping to have fun with it and see where it goes. Write some songs, play some shows.
Looking to practice somewhere central/slightly west London.

I guess it's still pretty early days, but if anyone's interested, give me a shout....

TONIGHT!!!

BUUUMP!

I always enjoy doing band-related stuff but for some reason I've been epically slack with writing/practicing in the 2nd half of this year, I think I need to either shit or get off the pot in '13.

*Excellent *names.

Can't listen at work. but, Vinegar Strokes in particular is... verrr good.

Ha ha yeah. Puerile but I like it.

Elvers playing part four of regular monthly residency at the King Charles I in King's Cross tonight.

A friend, Lo, was asked to do a set of her ace French psych pop songs at a place in Shoreditch, so we cobbled together a little band to back her. I plonked bass. We're the first 45 seconds of vid only, then Highfields and Fake Club... it was fun...
