This forum is as bad as the South London de-Press

[swiders]

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.

Anyone got the new Arcade Fire album? I'm looking forward to hearing it.

Trying to get back on topic..... I wonder if it's been reviewed in the South London Press?

[mockney piers]

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]

I've got it too, in fact I am listening to it right now......

ps have soft spot for kaiser chiefs as they are fellow leeds people (even though they went to the posh school)

[Keef]

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.

[swiders]

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".

[clare]

ricky wilson shook my hand in dublin last year..........swoon.........(not really)

[mightyroar]

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.

[mightyroar]

O. Just realised there already is such a thread. i'll get my coat.

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?

[Brendan]

Awww. I've gone all warm and fuzzy.

[Moos]

Me too! Sniff!

I hadn't discovered the forum in those days. I'm just sooo young.

[Frankito]

I still get angry when I think that this forum has been running for so long without me knowing about it....

[Michael Palaeologus]

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.

[Alan Medic]

I'm not sure the slaughter of all at 73 has actually happened yet. It's not wishful thinking is it?
