You should go ahead with your plan mate
I really will only have a couple of hours spare, and haven't even got my tickets or travel sorted yet, it might not happen

Oh, I shall
just thought it might be fun if others joined me.

FYI - my gig is at the Koko in Camden - if that's too far North of the river for you I'll understand.

Your gig in what sense?
Are you playing something of merely attending? Camden is easy enough to get to, this is a civilised part of the world after all.

Sorry, the gig I'm going to
I have no musical talent whatsoever

I have my son during the day on the 9th
but I should be free and could be in Camden by 6 or 7 if that fits and you fancied a pint.
( CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Wed 21 Sep 2011, 15:24, Reply)

Should do.
I can't stress strongly enough that this is a theoretical plan thus far - haven't paid for or organised anything, don't know what time doors are or who's supporting. I'll let you know, thank you for your interest though :-)

No worries, I can suggest a pub if you're interested.

You'll have to, like I know where to drink in Camden

(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Wed 21 Sep 2011, 15:29, Reply)

I would recommend The Dev if you're not easily intimidated
it's a goth/punk/metal pub but friendly enough, BTW are you sure you mena the 9th? It's a Sunday.

I certainly do, sadly
Train engineering works mean a three hour trip each way and not getting home until 2.30am. And if The Dev is a goth pub I daresay it'll be full of people going to the gig.

it's about a 10-15 minute walk away from the venue, so there's a fair chance.
and it's not so much a goth pub as the goth pub. I probably still know a few of the regulars, more worryingly I dated one of the bouncers and while we split on good terms not everyone there may be aware of this, which could be interesting to say the least.

Are you still on speaking terms with him?
If he gives you a hard time (fnarr) I'll defend you. I'm well tough, me.

She's one of my best friends
So I doubt there'd be any problems, just not been there since we were together. She doesn't work Sundays though.

Camden?
WTF?

Somewhere central would be nice.

Perfumed ponce.

Nicely played, FILM-boy
I didn't choose for the gig to be there mate, if it was up to me they'd be playing Norwich Waterfront and I could avoid going anywhere near you benders

Who's playing BTW?

VNV Nation
You won't have heard of them unless by virtue of me banging on about how awesome they are

I have Praise for the Fallen
Mostly because I think Joy is an excellent song, the rest of it is OK too.
( CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Wed 21 Sep 2011, 16:03, Reply)

I'm impressed
Joy is indeed an amazing song. They open their headline set at InFest with that. I went absolutely spare.

They aren't that obscure, are they?
Techno-industrial isn't really my thing, but I like some of it and it used to get some play at The Electric Ballroom back in the day.

I went to a Salsa night at The Cuban in the market last Thursday
Pretty surreal, the bar is right opposite CyberDog, goths kept wandering through

The people watching at Cyberdog can be very funny. I think I am too old for anything else to do with that shop

I choose to point out that the clothes are more expensive than their construction warrants
but yeah, I'm too old for it as well.
