i used to live in kentish town on leighton road - just around the corner from the forum. also a good live venue although now its the home of "the church" and "school disco" so less appeal. looking forward to seeing those random canadians.


have you read the post about the indie band at the herne on the 24th - its in the whats on section. they sound alright, will def get along and have a look.


yes...still off post.

I haven't seen it reviewed in the South London Press *ahem*, but I have got it and it's very good (though less creative than their spellbinding debut).


Darn, this is in danger of turning into the "I love Kaiser Chiefs" thread I was whinging about the other day.

Clare, Brixton is the Best venue in London in my opinion! They do actually roll chairs in occasionally for things like comedy (saw the fast show there a few years back, was odd seeing the chairs), but it's best for gigs, as you get a good view wherever you stand! Don't stand at the back though, as the sound gets a bit rubbish when you're under the upper circle!


Hope you have a top time! Who are you seeing?


Swiders, I saw Snow Patrol at The Forum last year, fantastic little venue!!! I loved the fact we were right near the front, and I got to the bar and back in the space of one song!!! :)-D


Sorry to be off topic.

clare, you can't be real?


every time i see ricky wilson and the gang staring seriously at me at the Elephant and Castle junction it just cracks me up.


having said that, i've probably seen the chiefs at more festivals than most bands. they were just everywhere in 2005 and 2006 so it was unavoidable really. good fun but def not "serious".

I'm just listening to it too. Got it in Peckham Woolworths. Love the Fire. Love the Academy. saw Guillemots there a few weeks ago. Do we need a separate thread for Indie lovers in ED?

Love Snow Patrol but his voice goes a bit wonky when live I think.

Of course they are and that's why you went back 4 years, I blame LM for setting a precedent and the medical profession for giving AM so much spare time. Haven't you got leeches to gather?

Good God! I started this one. Has it really been 4 years?


I dont post much now. Not since the mugging and my car being stolen and the burglary and the crack den raid next door and subsequent slaughter of all at 73 and the clowns on Peckham Rye and the rabid fox scare and the killing of Mrs Dobbin the lactating donkey by a psycho Dulwich Mother.....


.... but its a grand place to live.

      Bitey Fox.

      By Babbit · Posted

      I’m not sure how many other people have experienced this; but both me and one of my friends have the same story. Around Crawthew Grove and Crystal Palace Road: I was followed by a large fox right on my heel. At first I didn’t notice because I had my headphones on, but then I noticed my shadow had an extra lump in it, funnily enough, it was a fox, very very close to my feet. Even if I sped up walking it just tried to get closer - it was quite frightening actually, it was quite clear that it wanted to nip me. I didn’t know what to do so, I started to reprimand the fox and walked slowly away from it, facing it - which it didn’t seem to like and backed off a bit. I then proceeded to speed-walk away.   Quite frankly, the whole situation was quite embarrassing and a little bit frightful as I’d never had a fox even come up to me. I’ve heard of particularly curious foxes that might come up to someone who beckons them, and maybe even bite that person, but I’ve never heard of a fox chasing someone. The amount of confidence that it had was incredible.    When it happened, I was on the way to see some friends, and once I had told one of them, she told me the same thing happened to her.  if anyone else knows anything about this bitey fox then let me know!

      Recommendation: Spoiltdog aka Andy

      By Enable · Posted

      Another recommendation for Andy. I needed an old kitchen removed as an emergency. Andy came over quickly and did a fantastic job. I have used Andy a few times. He is punctual, helpful and always does an  excellent job.
