It's usually full of hot sweaty chicks dressed for the beach, tastefully adorned with luminous body paint.
And gurning Geordie meatheads.

Are you sure her sore throat will have cleared up by then?Well, I don't know whether it's good or bad. We're not 'talking' until tomorrow night.
(I know that doesn't narrow it down much at a Pixies gig ). Yeah, it was a good gig. They always have a bunch of energy, and they don't even let you catch your breath between songs. New Kim did a great job, but I guess she didn't want to do any lead singing.
What's up Mush?Dammit
I'm overthinking things again.
I need something to distract me.
Well, as she was the one who told me we'd be talking tomorrow night, I assume her throat is feeling a lot better today.Are you sure her sore throat will have cleared up by then?
I told you before man, no deal.
god fucking damnit! (I don't know what you're on about)
Well if you must know, I was supposed to be meeting someone in Camden tomorrow for a few drinks. I've been really looking forward to it all week, and this evening I receive a message from them bailing.
No cool bro, not cool.
All awesome choices. Tame and Hey are two of my favs. I'd never heard Motorway to Roswell before.This is The Pixies for me:

New Pixies isn't really doing it for me...

Have you heard his stuff as Black Francis?
Black Francis - The Seus
I love the really lazily strummed discordant riff. And he's almost rapping on the verses.
So good man, I love this track!

This is so so so so good. For all At the Drive-in fans (and fugazi fans too).
They were this good when I saw them. Mind was exploded.
Omar is not only best guitarist ever etc but also a really interesting and thoughtful man.
Edit: you can go straight to 8 mins 34 for the best song!
So...
Ungrateful little moo. ;P
That's exactly what I said. That part with the "he's not mine, he's not mine!" Is totally Eminem! But good, SSLP/MMLP era Eminem.I have but not that song. I love the guitar! Great choice.
I imagine if Eminem was a rock star, that wouldn't to far off from what he'd be doing XD
Man, I just listened to the first song while I had a cig, holy fuck balls! Really good stuff, I'll listen to the rest after the film. I've heard of them, just yet another band I've never gotten around to. Big thumbs up from me.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4EWvjYufx4&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Star Trek and Star Trek: Into Darkness are probably in my top films of the last decade or so. As much hate as they both get, I thoroughly enjoyed them and always recommend them when people ask for a film to watch, regardless of whether they're 'Trekkies' or not. I particularly enjoyed JJ's use of lens flare in the films, really bought the action scenes to life. Cumberbatch was great as Khan in Into Darkness.I'm watching Star Trek Into Darkness, about halfway through. I'm really enjoying it, it's exciting, well paced and looks typically lush as you'd expect from JJ. Man, he loves to bleed those lights across the screen though, shiny horizontal lines everywhere!

I can totally see the Fugazi connection, angry shouty math rock mane!
Ah, misinterpreted what you said, that's fair enough!
Definitely gets the blood pumping! Nothing quite like it.
Yeah I know, Can't afford to go though. Won't be able to afford to do anything this year
Here's a link to some of Neil's stuff

I've posted that before a long time ago. It's my mate's band. Or rather was before he decided to quit.
I was wide awake last night at about 4am, fixing myself something to eat in the kitchen. It's always that piercing silence that gets me, you know? It puts you in thinking mode and there's nothing to interrupt the sound of your own thoughts; you're stuck with that voice in your head and you just have to listen to it. Randomly started thinking about stuff in the past and I realised something about someone else in regards to myself and now I feel kind of weird. I just remember this situation a couple of months ago, where I was sitting at a train station with some people. Something that happened during a conversation we had never actually seemed weird to me, but last night I realised that this persona I've built up over the years - keeping in mind this is like bottle I've kept closed for fucking YEARS in order to stop other people getting too close - had a hole in it. It took me two months to realise that someone managed to pinpoint my biggest insecurity and stop someone else from denting at it by accident. One of the reasons I've always bottled stuff up is so that I can stop these kinds of insecurities getting played on, but the one time that someone realised it was there, they stopped someone else from accidentally playing on it.
I'm not sure how to feel about it, honestly. I'm pretty open when there's a keyboard in front of me, but in person? Naw.

No cool bro, not cool.
Seems like you are already opened up to this person so won't make a difference in you showing it more except to let them know you don't mind. Hard to know what to suggest if its a girl, guy, love interest, colleague etc. but some kind of get together couldn't hurt.
So glad you like! The big record is called 'Relationship of Command', it's one of the best albums I've ever heard. Sales pitch alarm! Honestly love them.
Thats a shame, saving up for something?
Wow, that is crazy, found them randomly on a youtube clicking adventure. Didn't even realise they were British lol, not very observant apparently. So you are in a comic, you have a band, you know a band famous enough that another GAF'er mentions them, you like NIN... yep, very cool person. Play the guitar as well by any chance?
Bro, I'm sorry - I'm trying to find a workaround now
Should be able to grab a drink or two on the cheap, but I really am going to have to keep it to one or two - my month isn't looking great financially.
They're only a friend, it's nothing more than that. I'm just shocked that someone saw through the facade.
It is easy to think that you can hide your own insecurities/feeling, but spend enough time with someone and they will probably figure it out. It is very hard to actually deny yourself. Not worth the effort either.
You know I love you Mike, I wasn't trying to guilt trip you. But if you can make it that would be awesome, I really have been looking forward to this all week.
g'morning folks, it's Friday, how is everyone today?
It's alright
To tell me
What you think
About me...
Seriously though, we're good and I've sorted it I found out I'm actually working in Barking today too, so I definitely won't be late!
It's alright

Continuing last night's theme of headsick and rage, feeling pretty glum this morning. Tired and a bit headachy anyway but I think what's really pissed me off and got me thinking is this social obligation we've got to go to tomorrow.
Basically, got these folks we used to be very tight friends with, saw them multiple times a week and all that. The guy in the couple used to be the drummer in my band, but he flaked out for pretty lame medical reasons a couple of years back which put a pretty big tear in the friendship. The girl in the couple is technically my wife's 'best friend' but in the past year we've maybe seen them 4 times, mostly on birthdays. They live mayyyyyyyybe 10 mins walk from my house, moved house in September and we've still not been invited over to hang out.
Frankly, it's fairly obvious that neither of us gives two shits about the other any more. If we cared enough we would have got in touch ourselves, but our lives have been fun and full of great stuff this year. These people, while nice company, are fucking boring people and do nothing with their lives. The guy is super talented but depressive and so does nothing (making me feel a bit guilty for having done lots of things lately) and the girl - if you ask her "how have you been?" will tell you about her shitty job for an hour.
So, yesterday we get a text from her - it's her birthday, do we want to go out for a meal and drinks on saturday? Well actually, no. Because it's January and I'm skint and you gave us a couple days notice and frankly I don't give two shits. Friends you only see on your birthday are not good friends. And frankly, now the relationship has dropped this far I don't even want to see them on my birthday any more. Needless to say, Mrs say we should go because it will be nice. Was suggested if we can't afford the meal then we should go for drinks which sounds even worse - wait for a call about 10 to say where they are? Meet up with folks on an entirely different energy level at that time of the night? No.
So yeah, I'm fed up with this shit. Needed to brain dump. Need new friends
"It's January and we're skint" is reason enough not to go out IMO, disregarding any friendship failings.

You have us now!
But yeah, fuck that noise. Tell them you already have plans.
I was actually thinking the same. I have not only seen you more than them this year, but had actual fun times that stand out in my memory instead of just glumly hearing how shit it is to work in Claire's Accessories.
edit: I can't tell if this is sad or awesome. I'm going with awesome. We've had awesome times this last year innit
I have no useful advice for you Jed.
This post was pointless.
Yup, it's a stock "yeah, I'm not going" excuse."It's January and we're skint" is reason enough not to go out IMO, disregarding any friendship failings.
To be fair, Claire's Accessories is a bit shit.I was actually thinking the same. I have not only seen you more than them this year, but had actual fun times that stand out in my memory instead of just glumly hearing how shit it is to work in Claire's Accessories.

Accessorize is the new hotness.
Good morning one and all, how are we on this Fantastic Friday morning?
