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.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
