That's the guy who Keef drunkenly demanded drinks from.

[Keef]

Heh heh :)-D

I did apologise when I'd realised my mistake...

[Jah Lush]

I saw Pop Will Eat Itself at least three or four times back in the early 90s and have one of their albums too. Aren't I the lucky one.

[Mark]

To get this back on topic (although I fell it will get Lounged anyway) how many people do you think were there last Friday?

[Jah Lush]

Roughly I'd say about 60 maybe 70.

[Mogs]

In true Mag style HIGHER

[Ultraconsultancy]

I was on the verge of tapping said PWEI fan on the bonce to tell him I too, suffer, and have one of the original pepsi logo t-shirts somewhere. but i desisted, thinking this would mark me out as musically marginal. but clearly there were more than two of us.

Sean do you know every eighties musician that gets mentioned? Were you a venue manager, or a drug dealer or something?

What's the time? It's def con one!

I'd say Jah is about right with 60 or 70 - quite a few crowd-refreshes tho so it may be a bit higher - at any given point, just standing in the room I counted 30-40, add in the significant smoking contingent* plus those people who came and left early or arrived late and I'd say 70-80 maybe?

Ultraconsultancy, firstly t'was great to meet you on Friday. Secondly I did nothing of the sort but instead spent my teens/20s in rural Ireland and then middle-England devouring the 3 main music weeklys plus whatever monthly variant came out. Jah started to speak to me about music at one point on Friday but I sort of moved away from the subject because I feared I would bore the bejasus out of him ... As is evident from my forum use, when I get into something it veers towards the "heavy"

* on the smoking note, I'm not sure what the smokers think but if that room had us in it when smoking was allowed it would have been hell up there

[Keef]

Agreed. Just wish the stairs hadn't been quite so scary after a few drinks!

[SeanMacGabhann]

Oh Lord I know what you mean - although I was more alarmed when I was sober - by the time I was gone I barely noticed them

[Jah Lush]

Sean, I'm sure you wouldn't have bored the bejasus out of me by talking about music. I think you'll find I can be just as obsessive. It's only a few short years ago that I finally weaned myself off reading the NME every week. Still get Mojo though.

Yes, those stairs were a bit scary and if us smokers had been up in that room it certainly would have been damned foggy up there even with the windows wide open.

[citizenED]

What stairs?

[shambles]

Hello all! I had a great time at the party...very hoarse the next day mind! Thanks Mark for making it happen

[ChavWivaLawDegree]

I can't believe I was too drunk to care about cake! You did a really good job getting everything so nice and rounding up so many people, Mark. Even my moany ex-bf had a good time.

[Keef]

I think I stuffed a whole square of cake in to my mouth at once so as to free up a hand for the stair rail... Class personified me.

[AllyCat]

Was that before or after you made me eat a whole sqaure of cak ein one go..??!:))

Thanks for organising such a great party - really enjoyed it!

Looking forward to the next get-together already - and I'm saying that after going to bed at 3.45am last night after the soap awards!

[Keef]

I made you eat cak?!?!? God I was more drunk than I thought!

[hyounan]

just found this...

yes, it was a truly a great night and I was excited (very sad I know) to try and guess who was who from their sign in names...I couldnt believe how many people their were either. I dont think I got the chance to speak to half of the people there... In case anyone knew who I was - petite girl with fringe with a very tall boy and who kept saying 'Im from the wellbeing well!'!!!

Met some really lovely people...

Hope to meet again at some point

[SeanMacGabhann]

ahhh! so you are hyounan - got it now. Very nice to speak to you - that was the civilised part of the evening for me (not drunk, still holding it together etc)

[citizenED]

And it was nice to meet you too, hyounan - (was it you who offered a free massage or am i thinking of someone else?) sorry if I wasn't making much sense - my party ettiquette was rather the wrong way round: say hi to all the people I know first, then, when I'd had a few, find people I didn't know. Good form.

[Dulwich Born And Bred]

When is the next one? and can I come?

[SeanMacGabhann]

you've seen the pictures? and you still want to come???

Looks like Oct 12th at the Canning (top O' Denmark Hill)

[Brendan]

I think the general consensus at the moment is 12 October. See this thread http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?20,49338,49856#msg-49856 Everyone is very welcome.
