You're all too old, musicians should be taken out and shot at the age of 40.


Of course in 5 years time when I turn 40 I shall revise this ;-)

I have been following a lot on this forum for a while now and rarely post anything , but it does seem to me ,that

some people enjoy slating off Buisness people who are trying to make a living (very hard to do in this age)weather it be a publican or a band !

At the end of the day ,were all trying to make a living.

If you have the time to sit onfront of a screen allday , slagging off people , well it seems you have no work , and must be scrounging benifit,s . No one else has that type of time to spare, unless your the Victor Meldrew type .

I like and agree with Kingy,s post,s ,and would like to no when his band is playing again in East Dulwich.

I'm guessing you probably drink in The Cherry Tree? Wild guess, I know.


ETA: Would you like to share with us your definition of "the Victor Meldrew type"?

this is all wrong - wrong wrong wrong - face to face real - this is wrong - you know where i will be and you know who I am cos I post the gigs on here - it's not a 'forum' it's a bulletin board - there's the gig - take it or leave it - full stop

you would get more people to go to a gig round here these days if it was affiliated to a knitting/crochet club

Registered 2008 though, Da Manager 2013.


Oh sad, sad person that I am :)


ETA: And generally, the lower case "i"s are a CT giveaway, which don't appear in Dazzer's - er - case.


ETA: Though the use of "slating" is interesting, I give you ....

Well our next gig isn't affiliated to a knitting/crochet club, and it's been sold out for weeks :)


You seem to have a thing about full stops, Kingy?


ETA: And yes, face to face is real, so it's a bit hard to understand why you chose to call a pub owner a "knob" on a public forum, with no immediate explanation, and no apparent provocation save the mention of his pub on a thread.


ETA: And subsequently called him even worse, which I'm not going to repeat here.

Miller Anderson & Dr King will be playing @The Draft House on Sunday 13th October 2013 between 4:00 pm and 6:0 pm

We popped in briefly, and were amazed at the size of the band!


The place was rammed, lots of people enjoying roasts. Great way to spend a Sunday afternoon!

    • Hi, Looking for a bedframe with no head or footboard for a double mattress. Normal UK double. Ideally wood. If someone has one to sell or give away please get in touch, thank you!  
    • Great answer, but how do you then square it up with pension pots investments without adversely impacting future growth.  Buit of a tricky one as on one hand it should be nationalised but on the other we don't want to see future pension poverty relying on government top ups.  Far too complicated for a simple answer   
    • Driving down one of the side streets near the park last night we saw a group of kids in front holding a rope across the road. Did feel a little anxious and then when we got closer it turned out to be a harmless trick - nothing in the road/dangerous, just three kids on each side holding long twigs as if they were tugging a rope between them. i'm conflicted - quite a theatrical prank (I presume copied from online) but given the location could well have been the same group mentioned above. 
    • I have no idea, but not so difficult for one of them to stand to the side and record. In an odd way at least if they were doing it for social media it might explain the motivation, albeit misguided. Others may disagree, but that feels less worrying than a desire to intimidate.   I think comparable games like "knock down ginger" where children run away and/or momentarily stick their tongue out as cheeky gesture, have a different vibe to what is described here.
