Keep us posted, chum.

Brilliant gig on Saturday - all three turns were cracking. Just needed it all to be louder. I was getting a bit cheesed off with people standing there talking loudly over the music and not even looking at the stage. Ian's solo stuff is brill - his singing sounded a bit Lawrence From Felt, I thought. Cherry Hex were dreamy - totally gonna buy their EP. And Deerful, well, yes... the new song was a beauty - can't wait for the album now. <3 <3

Would anyone fancy a drink on Tuesday night btw? Or maybe Wednesday. I'm finding a little midweek session helpful at the moment in negotiating a path through the gloom of January.

That sounds awful, doesn't it.

[tonieee]

I'd be up for that. Where do you fancy going? I might not stay until last orders though as I have to get up ridiculously early these days.

I was really annoyed with the sound levels/people talking on Saturday. Matt the sound engineer said there wasn't much he could do about it without mics feeding back etc. Wish the talkers had fucked off into the rest of the pub. They were all music scene people so should have known better.

Probably can't make it to the pub this week due to lack of funds and slippery death pavements.

That occurred to me too, looking round the room. And the usual exodus of 'our friend has performed, let's not bother watching the other acts'. Very Sheffield, but still disappointing. Still, the night generally was ace - were you happy overall with how it went?

tonieee, I'm not sure about pub now... I'm so exhausted I might need to just curl up in a blanket and hide every night this week. Will let you know if that changes.

Yeah, it was a great night. It was nice to see so many people come out and to be able to pay the acts decent money (50 each!). I need to see Ian and CH and the DC again because I couldn't hear them from the back.

However, if the Crown does remain a venue they need to do something with the live room to stop people getting in without paying. There were a few who didn't bother.

[tonieee]

I was one of the talkers. I'm really sorry. It was a great night and you should totally definitely put Ian on again.

It's probably best for me not to go out midweek these days anyway. I'm thinking of going to the pub on Friday if any one fancies it?

Maybe. Let me know if you do! I'm planning on going to Chesterfield on Saturday night so if I do make it out on Friday as well then I'll probably just want to stay local.

[tonieee]

Local's good for me.

[tonieee]

Dobbie's going to come up to Walkley about nine for a pint or two. He fancies going to the Hillsborough Hotel - is that locally enough for you? Otherwise I guess the Blake? The Beer Co shuts at ten doesn't it? So we'd have to leave almost as soon as he got there.

Hello Everyone, Is anyone from Sheffield going to Preston on 17th February to see the Suncharms and the Orchids? I mean its the Suncharms. THE SUNCHARMS!

Ooh I didn't know about that. How easy is Preston to get to/back from?

Are you coming out tomorrow night to see us and Milky Wimpshake?

[duglasette]

I think Penny is going to Preston and staying in a Travelodge. I was thinking of driving there and back on the night but its further than I thought, so I might take the hotel option too. I'll still be driving so can offer a lift if you fancy it?

What venue are you playing tomorrow? I may well come along. How exciting! Two great gigs in the space of a few days. Woopie!

[duglasette]

The Orchids and The Chesterfields are also playing. Its a superfab line up.

[duglasette]

Cheeky chappie Chris Mabbs has persuaded me to come out tomorrow - £3! Can't go wrong.

Yay!

I'll look into the Preston gig and let you know.

[duglasette]

Loved your band tonieee! Had a smile on my face all weekend as a result. :)

Also - I'm definitely going to Preston Friday if anyone would like a lift. I'm staying in a Premier Inn. I'm planning to drive there in the afternoon so I can have a detour to good old fun packed Blackpool and eat chips on the windy sea front. Coming back Saturday lunchtime-ish.

Ah... I wouldn't have minded, cos I didn't get to see The Orchids in Glasgow at the weekend, but I can't really stay over. Nice of you to offer though - thanks!
