[QUOTE=Polyamarous;14631099]I feel sorry for the Klaxons, for they cannot compete against the awesome power of the smashing pumpkins.[/QUOTE]

I will proberbly go and watch Klaxons, i dont care much for smashing pumpkins.

I can see the same situation happening this year, as last, a group of my mates tried convincing me to go see pearl jam, because even if i don't like the, you have to see them live, where's the fuking logic in that, if i don't like them then i dont want to go watch them do i, idiots, so i watched Maximo Park, who where brilliant and a very much enjoyed.

Replace the bands with the pumpkins and klaxons, and walla, this years situation will arise.

Dead Star 04-30-2007 03:20 PM

Pearl Jam were so immense live.

I didn't like them back then but seeing them live converted me.

2muchket! 04-30-2007 04:24 PM

Klaxons are good imo. But then again I love metal. But outta Klaxons and Pumpkins i'd rather see klaxons. Now if RATM were to play reading/leeds as they did coachella on sunday that'd be a different story.

Patrick O))) 04-30-2007 05:55 PM

That happened to me a few years back

There was White Stripes/Morrissey on the main stage (can't remember which. Doesn't really matter) and Mondo Generator followed by Mark Lanegan in the carling tent

My mate Dav's girfriend went to see whoever was on the main stage, so he left halfway into Mondo Generator, and Spencer never made it to the carling tent, his girlfriend was seeing the Main Stage too (she's one of these 'we can see from here' types. I have my misgivings ... ¬_¬)

Needless to say, I stayed :) one of the best live sets I've ever seen

Urgh, I cannot stand new rave bollocks.

Going to a club and seeing people dancing to the same songs week on week just really puts me off it. It annoys me when people defend them by saying "yeah but those are just the songs for the mainstream".

Just, seeing hundreds of sweaty morons singing along that "doo doo doo doo doo doo doo" song gets old very quickly. Like in 5 seconds.

2muchket! 05-01-2007 08:29 AM

You mean Golden Skans ?

Nu-rave is just a gimmick. I listen to rave and theres nothing rave like about s***disco or klaxons

Patrick O))) 05-01-2007 10:26 AM

What a GORGEOUS DAY! :eek:

I've thrown back the curtains and put some music on. In about half an hour, I'll be able to tan from my bed :cool:

Ooo, a romantic evening in with oneself, joy!

We can get Uni hoodies, and I can lol at yours because mine's Leeds Uni and yours is only Leeds Art College.

There's quite a rivalry between Uni and Met, but only really as far as sports goes.

That's about it.

Untitled 05-01-2007 11:03 AM

Jev 05-01-2007 02:15 PM

Okay, like an hour down and I've done 326 words.

I am distracted somewhat.

Untitled 05-01-2007 02:17 PM

I hope i get into leeds uni :(

Looking good that they rang me to arrange an interview, me and my tutor thought we would have to ring them. :)

Mexican Bandito 05-01-2007 02:24 PM

question about student loans if anyone can help;

me and mum were looking through my form (I don't know if it's different from English region ones) and it asks to put the address of where I'll be staying when I move down. But I don't know yet.
Should I just put 'student accomodation, Bradford'

I'm going to phone up tomorrow anyway, but just wondered if anyone could help at all.

Untitled 05-01-2007 02:28 PM

I dunno about that, because im thinking "i dunno where im going to live untill i know exactly how much money i will have...."

Patrick O))) 05-01-2007 02:28 PM

Yeah, that should be fine for now.

I've never recieved anything from them at my term address. I don't imagine they'll ever actually do anything with the information. It's more a way for them to assess your loan situation.

Like, if you were living at home during term, among other factors, you might recieve a bit less loan because frankly, you wouldn't need it.


And besides, you can always update your information later on :)

Mexican Bandito 05-01-2007 02:32 PM

Thank you :)

Living At Home £3,495

Jev 05-01-2007 02:35 PM

That's why I'm going London and leeching off my parents.

Patrick O))) 05-01-2007 02:36 PM

:-*

"ADDRESS: Ask Patrick, he knows. Patrick, what's our address? He says 6 Thornville Crescent, Hyde Park, but he isn't sure of the postcode."

:upset:

:-* ^-^ eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Mexican Bandito 05-01-2007 02:37 PM

I'm well writing that :D
or
home#1: Bradford
home#2: 6 Thornville Crescent, Hyde Park




It's going to cost me £2,800 for accomodation next year. Which I don't think is bad considering it's ensuite :) and a spanking new building.

Mum told me I might not get a bursery though because of how much income they get, so I'm kinda worried about that =/

Untitled 05-01-2007 02:39 PM

i should get a bursury, i wanna go in Opal1/2 halls (heard anything bout them pat??)

they are mega £££££ (£93 a week, prollt to much)

2muchket! 05-01-2007 03:43 PM

Need to find out about accomdation really. Would be helpful if I knew were I wanted to go ¬_¬

Untitled 05-01-2007 03:53 PM

What you are you going too?

Clunge 05-02-2007 01:58 AM

Morning all.

Erw, thats disgusting.

[QUOTE=Untitled;14636029]i should get a bursury, i wanna go in Opal1/2 halls (heard anything bout them pat??)

I know almost nothing :p

£93 a week is an absolute sh[size=2]it[/size]load to pay for halls, are you sure that's right? :confused: My brother was broke amost all year, and because he could only apply late on, he had to take the first place in halls he could get, which was about £70 p/w.

It was a nice student hall, so you do seem to get what you pay for, he had a big room and kitchen/lounge bit, but my housemate's was perfectly good and he was only paying about £60.

If they really are all that and you can afford it, there's no reason why not. But you WILL spend the year looking at what else you could have spent the money on... :(
