-5⁰ Celsius?

fingers mccoy 12-06-2010 03:30 PM

yeah

Berner 12-06-2010 03:33 PM

And your piping froze? You guys don't insulate them?

fingers mccoy 12-06-2010 03:39 PM

some landlords do, others are idiots

Berner 12-06-2010 03:42 PM

Clearly. If you knew that it can drop below 0 you'd insulate the pipes. Also now you've got a good chance of one of them bursting.

Ahh living in cold temperatures. It's -15 here right now with a windchill making it feel like -22. It's supposed to drop more later in the week :(.

Modern Iconoclast 12-06-2010 04:19 PM

It's a toasty 25 degrees Fahrenheit here. It also snows a metric fuckton here in the winter. Yay for living near a mountain range...

So, 500 words of literature review done. 5000 to be done for Tuesday 4pm.
Also found out today that it's only worth 5% of the course; point?

[QUOTE=benfan;18301034]So we have sacked a manager who has a 55% win rate, and replaced him with the reserve team coach. I am livid. I dont care who he gets long term, he needs get away from our club.[/QUOTE]


if this is all part of some grand plan i'd like to be aware of it. "they" may have something or someone in mind but to your average fan it just looks like the club have shat on one of the best managers we've had in years.

a little bit of communication to the paying customers would go a long way to settling things down. as it stands, saturday is just going to be another hate fest and will disrupt business where it matter most, i.e. on the pitch.

I understand why lit reviews are beneficial, but only 5%? They've structured the course so that the lit review is all I've had time to do over the last 10 weeks :confused:

Mate it's -19 in some places.

Sad But True 12-07-2010 11:05 AM

I know it's cool to hate on Periphery round here but I don't care, I'm going to see them in Feb, possibly on my birthday, which is nice.

Berner 12-07-2010 11:12 AM

Man that'd be awesome. I want them to come around here.

Why would I be doing that? And besides, what makes that such a bad thing? I'm going to see Roger Waters too next year (twice :D), and I'll be sitting down nodding my head.

The beauty of them playing the UK is that no two gigs are ever further than like 4 or 5 hours apart. And living in the middle of England means I'll probably end up going to 2 or 3 of them.

fingers mccoy 12-07-2010 11:34 AM

:lol:

Squirrel 12-07-2010 11:36 AM

I couldn't stand to see them once, nevermind several times in as many days.

Sad But True 12-07-2010 11:42 AM

Yeah.


So anyway, sup Lod?

Got an xmas gig for each band coming up, one this saturday and one the friday after. First one is for the smaller/side project type thing and we're main support, second one is for my main/oldest band which we usually pack out (done it last 2 or 3 xmases) so it's last minute practices ahoy.

fingers mccoy 12-07-2010 11:45 AM

i remember seeing porcupine tree live, the audience looked like characters from fallout 3 caught in an animation loop

Sad But True 12-07-2010 11:46 AM

So?

fingers mccoy 12-07-2010 11:47 AM

just banter, i'm not trying to belittle you

i got bored of shows for that kind of music a long time ago cause they don't give you much more than what's on cd apart from jamz and not being jazz/improv-based musicians they never really manage to pull much out of the bag for those

Squirrel 12-07-2010 11:49 AM

Periphery does suck shit though to be fair.

Sad But True 12-07-2010 11:51 AM

A big part of it for me is supporting the bands that I like. I rarely buy CDs, and it's not that I'm somehow attempting to absolve myself by paying to see them, it's just that I always enjoy music more when it's played right in front of me, even if it is almost a carbon copy of the CD, so to me it's a no-brainer.

fingers mccoy 12-07-2010 11:52 AM

i mean the performance community is a big part of my life too i just don't find those performances very satisfying but that's ultimately down to taste

Squirrel 12-07-2010 11:54 AM

news just in seeing bands live is an enjoyable experience for those that enjoy said bands music

Sad But True 12-07-2010 11:55 AM

Fair enough, as is most music-related discussion. I mean, some performances are just flat out boring ,kings of leon comes to mind, but that's mostly because they physically looked and act bored outta their fucking skulls when they're playing. It's also slightly because they've made almost nothing but shite for 2 albums.
