The Peel is the best pub venue in Surrey. Lots of hardcore bands with the weidest variations (I saw a dance-core band last time I was there) and some good indie/punk thrown in for good measure.

I highly reccomend it.[/QUOTE]
I see. I'll check it out sometime.

Hang on...let me check...

My trousers say I'm a boy.

I know I'm often suprised at who is actually a girl and who is actually a boy though.

Maybe its because we communicate by typing, and we use our hands for that, and I have feminine hands.

Jev 01-15-2006 07:17 AM

I'm a boy.
When I was called Flower Dance that confused a lot of people.

I mean on the internet :p

On the other hand, it has happened that I've seen someone from behind at a concert and though, "She's hot", and then she turns round and its actually an efeminite guy with long hair.

Especially at festivals where everyone's wearing similar stuff anyway, and its loose, so you can't tell the shape of their body.

Still, I love you really moaner.

I've come to find that FM 2006 is both a blessing and a curse, It rules majorly but is distracting me from GCSE revision. Oh well who needs GCSE's.

Lord Abortion 01-15-2006 03:08 PM

Yeah, I have had that.
Too many emokids invading metal shows... it gets a little hard to tell.

Do you have any interludes you can extend a lot?

I have a song called The Punk Rock Cliché And Purgatory's Angel, and it starts off a typical punk song, and then finishes with an Iron Maiden style outro. 'Tis very cool.

Anyway, we link the two parts with a jazz interlude, which is 16 bars on the record, but we play it lots of times through, with the guitar coming in on the last 16 bars while I do stuff with the crowd (get them to dance to the funky bassline, see which half can scream louder, etc...)

It's very fun and goes down so well live.

Either that, or or spend a 30seconds to a minute introducing each song "We wrote this sone because...uh...yeah...we were bored, so we played notes, and they sounded like this!"

Lord Abortion 01-15-2006 06:00 PM

FOD, foolish ones.

My new song is called [I]Chainsaw Sculpture[/I]

Spectrum 01-15-2006 11:53 PM
