They're back

To explain their ex-per-i-ence

Basically, getting to work before they rise, not going to their haunts, but knowing they're back is the basic idea.

Signs include:

Sainsburys has sold out of 3 quid red wine and dried pasta

Can you fill me in?

Try finding a copy of the Observer in any newsagent within five miles of the campus after 1 pm Sunday. It ain't happening.

Trailerpark at the Cellar is full to bursting, even tho they did virtually zero publicity.

ha i bet over 99 % of 18 year old student freshers don't even know about The The - Soul Mining.

They all probably listening to NME New Rock Revolution bands: BRMC/ The White Stripes/ The Cooper Temple Clause etc.

Increase in number of Marlboro Light (that's LIGHT, dickwad health commissars) smokin' posh girls in queues at ATMs, tittering at the natives.

I'm 23 and, although I know of The The, I got no idea what that post meant.

feel free to burn down the rest of Ann Arbor now, too, with the possible exceptions of my house, the Del Rio, and Encore Records. the froshlings have returned once again.

Andy Williams' royalties from "I Love You Baby" increase 500%

Soul Mining was once famously voted the best album ever in a student survey.

I was disgusted.

i remember circa 1987/ 1988 Sounds published the results of a best student album poll ever - both infected and soul mining were in the top 50.

Boston owns this thread.

The full length of my street is full of cars in the morning (commuter school).

Being unable to move for posters and flyers for shit clubs.

(There's one this year with the AvidMerrionCraigDavid saying 'it's PROPER BO', joy)

It ain't happening.

Ditto for any copies of TNT
