The Loyal We

We belong. We don't belong.

About Me

When I grow up, I want to be a laser.

People say that
"We'll never change"
"We'll never change"
But I have.


I listen to an inordinate amount of music from Scotland. I accidentally come across as a pretentious wanker quite a bit of the time.

I don't live in Brighton, I just go there for shows. I can also be found in Southampton or Portsmouth (again, I'm only there for the music).

My Interests

Music, rain, separated by autobahns, guitars, cycling, Radio Spytime, outsiders, cheese, Pony, strange German art, kitties, polka-dots

I'd like to meet:

Pony.

Music:



Television:

Black Books, Futurama, Green Wing, Have I Got News For You, Little Britain, Never Mind The Buzzcocks, the IT Crowd, the Mighty Boosh, Doctor Who, Torchwood to some extent - though John Barrowman's putting me off

Books:

I'll read anything. Worrying, really.

CSS @ Concorde 2, Brighton - 01/02/07

It's a sign of a good show: you've got bruising on the back of your elbows, your ears are still ringing over twenty-four hours later and you don't mind either of them. But I'll start at the beginning....

Where someone has gone horribly wrong

That someone, for once, isn't me. Someone on last.fm has edited the CSS event listing to include the second support act, but for some reason... the support act are appearing on the listing as the head...

Oh, you bastard

Why is it so difficult to find out support acts for bands? Obviously I don't mean the big bands that publicise tours on a double-page spread in the NME and have fifteen support acts over various dates...

'Mon the 'fico!

Oops.Anyone who's been in my room will know that I'm not the tidiest person in the world. I managed to highlight that today by finding a package that arrived almost two weeks ago (I hadn't realised it...
