TAKE THAT SHIT TO THE-BRITS.COM

J i m s t e r said:skel said:Nah, Junior is dude, if late there's a fine and noble reason.


So we have guest Ia* coming along, sometime strutter with an academic interest in the bootleg scene, promises not to bore you with it, and I took the liberty of inviting dude from the picture (hipster, pint, girl, portable-R) but no response as yet.





Because that's a RW move for the ages right there.





YOLO





B/w





Jimster you will be sorely missed




Gutted, but truly unable to do it.





McCoy's Crown Paints "DALGLISH 7" shirt in the wash?




Heh. No full-kit wanker, I.





b/w





They didn't print the names on shirts in them days.





(I fear this thread may be about to collapse under its own weight)

 

[Jimster]

I know the names on the back was a 90's thing.





But you may have wanted to distance yourself from the one KEEGAN.





Surely, with that amount of gravitas on your back, man would walk like he's pulling a black hole.





Without looking, are you still keeping "Gold and Popcorn" fresh?

I have love for the Kevster, and as his days as a Red pre-date the sponsorship era, I feel sure that those who know would know, if you know what I mean, and I think you do.





The blog is going through another of its lengthy fallow periods. I'm thinking it may be time to pull off the dust covers once more, as my Q column has recently been binned off (along with all the other specialist columns in the reviews section), denying my blatherings their one remaining for-profit outlet. I'm pondering a fresh approach, but I'm less certain about the details at this point.

Thanks Doc, I'm sure we'll all be visible to each other with unspoken insider vibes.


And Duder lives in a Cobainesque check lumberjack outfit.





Seriously contemplating a makeshift banner to rally round.


Most likely result of which will be a post-it note on a wooden coffee stirrer


"TTSTTB . COM"





It's on-R

 

[bennyboy]

I'm DEFINITELY coming to the next meet.

 

[DocMcCoy]

I am in situ.

 

[skel]

There in 5

 

[LazarusOblong]

Are you guys running out of new looks over there or what?

As always, meet up was epic. Excellent to finally meet P**l and to build musical bridges over the territorial saga playing out on the tv in the background. Let's do it again soon.





Also fantastic as always to see L*o and St*ve and thank you for the chud jewels. Bonus to meet I*n as well, please to post in the future.





Also thanks to internet celebrity Dom for making two worlds collide, shrinking the globe, and blowing my brain so much that it took me over an hour to find my way back to Stratford meaning I am just about to undertake an epic mission. Pray I am not duttied.





Still want to do the national Strut meet up, let us start the planning for that up again in anger.

 

[skel]

Yes great to meet up with Doc at last, junior n Duder again, Ian is a new plus and hope we can collectively help his goals. And Dom; great to see a RW phenom represent.

 

[DOR]

Someone needs to set up a way to call into a pub and buy a round. That should have been my mission for tonight.





Tho, I just finished watching an online feed (While at work) of my good friend getting married by Elvis in Vegas.





So I got that going for me.

 

[Pattrick]

I want to say 'awesome' but fear being owned, pwn'd, :sonned: or whatever else happens exclusively on forum msge boards.


But f*ck it, I'm sayin' it. Drove home buzzing.





Awesome night. Engaging, erudite and incredibly generous chats. Hope I didn't hijack the flow too much with my pet project which you all seem waaaay more qualified to be pursuing than me. Deep seams to mine which I'll endeavour to pursue in a way that creates further evenings, drinks, good times and maybe reconnects old friends.





I'll see you here more often, IRL too and if any of you ever stray east along the A11 Norwich-bound you'll be properly fed, watered and re- homed.





Thanks for welcoming me and thanks for the record gifts. Some way,some how, y'all gonna get payback for that!

 

[skel]

Thanks Ia*.





Right, everyone unscathed?


Got in at 1, at work for 7.30, sausage+egg sammich & latte combo killed off any lurking hangover vibes by 9, it's all good and Clerkenwell pub crawl tonight.





::yay::

 

[Duderonomy]

Finally made it home! Had avoided foisting my own drinking habits on you guys as I figured I would be no fun for the friend I was meeting afterwards, turns out his night had been a bit of a weird one and we went out for more drinks and the best chicken kebab I've had in years. Proper drinking should be done next time (on a weekend!).





Sh*t, was a great game aswell!





Always great to see you again Stev* and Al* - you missed a trick with those burgers, very tasty. Secret Wenger love revealed from Junior! Everybody loves an idealist.





Nice to meet you Ian, as I said, if you want to find out more about bad housemates there are some blog-like entries in this thread but I might search out some choice morsels for you... probably using such keywords as "crack", "smack", "ketamin psychosis", "abhorrent perversity", and "kept me awake all night".





Dom, if you're reading, sign-up and share some knowledge! Was great to meet you and would be good to learn more about the Colchester acid-jazz/rare groove scene - do a mix for your intro thread entitled Music To Be Hip To or something ;-)

 

[skel]

Duder, your devotion to the tequila is admirable.


Can't fathom where you put it all.

 

[DocMcCoy]

Gentlemen, it was truly a pleasure to meet you all. A first-rate way of rounding off my most enjoyable return visit to London yet - it must have been, if seeing LFC lose to Yanited in The Pub With Almost No Beer wasn't enough to put a crimp on the evening. The generous donations of chud were a delightful and unexpected treat - ta muchly, Skel & Duder.





I did feel a bit Damien Duff heute morgen, though.

 

[Duderonomy]

Whoa, in my hungover state forgot to say it was a pleasure saying hi Doc, and you're more than welcome to the chud. Definitely hook up again next time your in Blighty!

Jimster, you were missed.

Ha! I thought I was quite valiant to admit to my previous misuse of his image for personal gain. I probably shouldn't have told him it five times while laughing excitedly though.





On top of the declaration of Wenger appreciation I think I also expressed a wish to see Liverpool rewarded for taking a punt on Rogers. Must have been a very benevolent evening. Was great fun and knew I'd missed out on the burger when it turned up with a steak knife driven through its heart.





My only request is that next time we do it within semi sight of either a railway or through road for black cabs to accommodate those of us lacking the Ray Mears gene. Still trying to work out the route I chose that took over an hour to get back to Stratford....

 

[skel]

In the PMG, Chicago Blues, New Orleans Jazz, MerseyBeat and SF Hippy have now been joined by the Colchester Acid Jazz n Rare Groove scene as pivotal musical junctions that have led us to where we are today.


Thank you all.

Dom? Que?
