White Fort, black brookes and an orange front deep v? Who was having more fun at the Lisson Party..

.....than i was! Couldn't stop looking at your bike. Sorry! Should have been working.
You weren't with the Dazed and confused mob were you?

sounds like yorgo

he probably was lol

And so it is!

Jeez, thought i might at least try the oysters! no such luck, guest list duty for most of the night. Dull!

Bright bike on a gloomy evening was just what i needed.

got to be yorgo, if not, according to a sighting during hovis freewheel, it'll be a 10 year old kid.

the 10yr olds bike is bigger than yorgos though

indeed that was a fun party. Massive headache this morning I must say.
Was with some Dazed people at some point but came in early with a different group.

no oysters for me though - I don't like them

yorgo

SMEEAR the 10yr olds bike is bigger than yorgos though

ha!

Whats lisson!?

On that freewheel thing, i saw a couple o kids on fixed bikes.
First a girl about fifteen. Then the boy with the ridiculously nice bike.
Then those wicked kids bikes that i used to ride a long time back.

Lisson Gallery opening party, it's Frieze art fair week so all the blaggers were out in force, getting pissed for free.

I would have been too if i wasn't working there.

I need a guide to blagging. Why on earth wasn't I there?

Everyone was there or somewhere else. T'was quite cool but i'd been at work from 8.30 so leaving at 1am wasn't what i needed. I didn't even get any Oysters and Guiness! Ho hum, i guess i'll wait until next year.

I think just saying you work for artforum works!

Yorgo got a beard? Think I saw him at the Faringdon Rd junction Monday eve?

Is this the dude, about 10 pics down doing the handgrab thingymajig?

Stef that bike has been flagged

Oh yeah, that was him alright. Suit jacket and sidi's + beard.

Should have guessed the bike was his.

Not that I know him at all.

long story, just say casino security style, it is a long story though
p.s. my broken english also plays a part in it ;P

guide to blagging by a seasoned veteran:

1 - look confident, but not arrogant. You ARE on the list. If not probably your ASSISTANT fucked up
2 - know at least one useful name, but make sure you don't say "oh I'm on Sarah's list..." to Sarah.
3 - look smart and artsy. As described above, suit jacket, arty beard, arty glasses, Sidi's. OK the Sidi's may be a problem in some Mayfair clubs.
4 - mobile phone. Arrive speaking on the phone, and continue the conversation whilst trying to get in. Chances of being perceived as rude though.
5 - "the invite is at my office but I just flew in from NYC/Monaco/Tokyo/Islamabad"
6 - work in magazines. Have business card at ready. threaten repercussion in the press if not allowed in
7 - arrive with incredibly hot girl, who looks like she does NOT like to wait or queue
8 - wait for someone you know vaguely to arrive then proceed forward at the same time while chatting about last night's event
9 - find the back entrance, or the low fence
10 - practice all of the above for long enough and you'll be a regular on the secne anyway so you won't have to blag anymore

Yorgo, lovin the fixed gear coverage in Intersection! This / last months fashion spread - did you get to look at that twonfro gear up close? My mrs is interested in the girls stuff.
