Quiet room...

[dulwichmum]

*Jumps up with a start*

*Shrieks* "In the name of God and all of his Saints and Angels! Can't you see me sleeping here?"

*Falls back asleep in the manner of Father Jack...

Whispers to lovely Jah - I am working very hard at the moment, I pop in when I can;-)

[citizenED]

*Slithers in to witness the melodic chaos*

*dons air guitar*

*winds up, Townsend stylee*

*this could be just what i need*

*Twannggggg...!*

[Michael Palaeologus]

*Perhaps a little Mantovani or perhaps the Boston Pops to calm the atmosphere - hmmm, anybody ...?*

[Keef]

*Walks in looking for Jah, and keen to hear about the Stones last night, how was the coolest Keef in History???? (I'm a close second ;-) )*

[Jah Lush]

*Over here Keef, just been giving the lovely Dulwich Mum a massage, the poor girl's been so busy of late, I've got to get her to relax more so perhaps we'll be a little quieter today after yesterday's partying, it is the quiet room after all, got to let the lady have her beauty sleep*

*The Stones were the canine's testicles mate*

*They rocked and more importantly they rolled too*

*Keef of course is cooler than thou, sang a beautiful version of You Got The Silver with just Ronnie on 12 string acoustic with bottleneck embellishments*

*Ronnie played some fabulous stuff, more slide playing than ever and is a revelation now he's sobered up somewhat*

*Charlie's the best and most sartorially elegant rock n'roll drummer on the planet*

*And how Sir Michael Philip Jagger does what he does at 64 is beyond comprehension*

*Horn section the business - ooh Bobby Keyes is a blast*

*Backing singers wonderful, swoon swoon special mention for Lisa Fischer*

*Ooh looks like the sun is over the yard arm, fancy a pint?*

[Keef]

*Dear God Yes!*

*Sounds like a fab night, I must see them before they die!!!!!*

*Takes nail file from bag and begins to sharpen small dogs teeth...*

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Creeps nervously into room as only a newbie upstart can, clutching large bottle of Laphraoig and wonders if she can slip "I Ran (So Far Away)" on the turntable?

[SeanMacGabhann]

* welcomes a newbie with good taste *

* says hello to "Brenda" and asks if it's the original or the Nouvelle Vague cover? *

* brings a cup of Barry's red label tea to Dulwichmum and soothes her brow *

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

*Was mischievously thinking of the original group but am allergic to pepper spray so perhaps should form an alliance with MP and stick to Mantovani. Whisky and water very good for soothing/hair of dog - tentatively offers some to DM ..."

[dulwichmum]

Gratefully accepts offerings from chums.

Looks around and asks quietly; "Has anyone seen Mr Mockney lately?"
