Patterns, Brighton, Friday 12 October 2018

[Mr Bod]

After having a look I find that over at Al Duomo they have a live Heavy Weight Reggae Sound System which goes ob till 4am.. ?

Nope no takers? did not think so..

[pomfob]

60 minutes starting at 9?!

Can someone sort out a list of post-gig pubs?

*Looks towards Kevo*

But Mucky Duck, Hand In Hand, St James' and East Street Tap have all been mentioned as potentials.

And I have a list of the guided pubs, so all is not lost.

can everyone get their fingers crossed this storm doesn't fuck up the entire railway network over the next couple of hours? cheers. I'm still bitter about the two gigs (in my entire life) I missed because weather broke railways. one was BSP. the other was, well, you can probably guess. another band I like a lot, supported BSP in 2006, from Leeds... let's just say that when explaining to the Virgin staff there was no point me continuing to London as the concert I was due to attend would be finished, I just couldn't bring myself to mention their name....

[Heartland]

If you get as far as London you've cracked it. Tropical down here

[Skinku]

Can anyone formulate a setlist for the elderly please?

[Mr Bod]

this.

[Bastian]

Pretty much the same set as the summer dates and the tour early this year, albeit shorter.

[Mr Bod]

Not that this is in any way a large amount next to some folks around here but by my count Patterns would have been BSP gig number 25 for me... which I think is respectable what with being old slack with kids and coming late to the party.

sad excuse corrected ...

[Blackout]

Having kids, and not discovering the band until later, are perfectly reasonable excuses (not that anyone needs an excuse for what they choose to do with their life, obviously)....

....Being old really isn't, I mean have you seen the rest of us :) :) I got into BSP in 2002 but didn't really start going to lots of gigs til late 03. I was aware they had a regular fan crew. At 31 I was slightly concerned about meeting them, I mean the band were in their 20s then so their fans would all be teenagers, no? I met original forumster Zoe whom I also knew off the Doves forum shortly before the BSP 2003 autumn tour, she was about 25/26, and we figured she would at least be closer to their age and we could both pass as a few years younger than we actually were, so we wouldn't look too out of place. Imagine our surprise when most of them turned out to be already pushing (or in some cases over) 40... :)
