OK the conclusion is:

The Marylebone Tup, Coxon Street, tubes Bond St. or Baker St. - Pete will be there from 7, I'll be there from half past 6. If you've got a free evening then please do drop in, ESPECIALLY if we don't know you yet.

― Tom, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Tom, surelythis should be title Mentalist Alert!!!!

I'll probably be there from 6:30 too. Nowt else to do but work on my epic "History of pop music in film".

― Pete, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"Lunatic Kills After Internet Invitation".

― Ronan, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Oh GO ON then. Rum'n'coke and a packet of crisps please.

CO-WORKER has just gone to pub without me!! He sa he is meeting brother but to me this is PUB TREASONG.

― Sarah, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Don't make Pete angry if he has a chair in his hand is my advice.

― Emma, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I'm off to see Brian Wilson tonite. Have a good time y'all.

― jel, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

― XStatic Peace, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

hmm, i hadn't thought of that, but its a possibility!

― gareth, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Coxon Street? Help. I can find this: map in blue writing.

― Alan Trewartha, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Yeah everywhere says its on Marylebone High Street. Tom = XStaticPeaces CRACK ADDICT. XP = Marcello, right? Whatever. Who's going tonight? I think it's quite possible I'll turn up for a while but perhaps not stay all that long after all I am rather poor CHIZ. Also lots of BUFFY episodes to watch!

― Sarah, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I'll be there assuming I can find it, and early too! Work finishes for me in a mere 2 hours but I warn everybody - I think I might be coming down with evil stomach bug.Either that or I drank way too much last night and further rotted my belly.

― Jonnie, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i should be there about 8-8.30

― gareth, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Don't know if I'll be along yet, rather irritatingly I don't get any money until tomorrow and that IR cheque hasn't come through yet.

― DG, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

IR cheque

Has FatNick actually considered a career in the Inland Revenue? He'd have a fucking field day.

― N., Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

fuck it Deeg, we'll get ya beers in

― gareth, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Right after consultation with the Arsemonkey I am going to see a FLICK in Brixton tonight instead. Tup Free Zone = yay!

― Sarah, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I'll try. We'll see how the root canal goes though. (Yes, another one. Third in the same number of weeks.)

― dave q, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"From Hell" preview at the NFT tonight too. still i can see that any time later, beer won't be around for ever

― Alan Trewartha, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

No! I'm coming to the pub!!

― Sarah, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

save us all from "from hell": see ya 7.30ish

― mark s, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

OK then, I'll see if I can rustle up some cash (my dad's in Paris and my mum is a lot easier to get money from, especially when he's not around).

― DG, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

SAINTS ALIVE Starry never in my many years of pubgoing have I come across anybody faffier about the booZoR.

― Tom, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Well Tom for chrissakes if it was a Sam Smiffs there would be no hesitation. The Tup in Kingston I used to know rather well and EACH TIME I went in there there was a FITE! Glassing! People shouting in cockerney accents! Bad smells. I don't remember the beer being all that either - although if I remember correctly they had Pride. This is a while back now though. But now I will faff no longer I am going to THEE PUB.

I heard A House, btw.

― Sarah, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

All dead....YET STILL ALOIVE!

― Tom, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

maybe just maybe you guys could work on hte focus group together

― anthony, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I'm afraid that in our country, Anthony, it is not the done thing to sit around in a pub typing things into your laptop.

― Emma, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

(that is why we shun graham with such impressive vigour)

― mark s, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Alan, "From Hell" is rubbish. I saw it a couple of weeks ago. Not that I'm promoting the stinking 'Marylebone' Tup, you understand.

― N., Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

It disses Dr William Gull = it is by monkeys

― mark s, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

no wonder he like deca akenhed then.

― XStatic Peace, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I have just noticed that I am not working tomorrow. This means I may well check out this filthy Tup thing after all.

― N., Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

According to both Multimap.com and an A-Z of London I have lying around, there is NO Coxon Street in London anywhere. And, no doubt, there ain't been one there fer over thirty year...

― DG, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Try Marylebone High St then as Tom is on crack.

― Sarah, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

The Kingston Tup's beer has improved then. The last time I went in there (the day I was made redundant) I had a perfectly good pint of Bombardier.

― RickyT, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

there's a MOXON street?

― mark s, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

In Ewingtown, every street is named after members of Blur.

― Tim, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

on the other hand, the Marylebone Tup, 93 Marylebone High Street: prolly it's on the corner of the two hey?

― mark s, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

It is, on corner of two, I'll be there shortly.

― Ed, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

>>> In Ewingtown, every street is named after members of Blur.

Surely that's in *DJMartianville*?

― the pinefox, Tuesday, 29 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

so anyway, who went and how did it go? I would have loved to have gone, but getting to London and back from Oxford when I've got work the next day is a bit too much. Still, Tom presumably manages it.....

― MarkH, Wednesday, 30 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

sorry not to have made it - bumped into a couple of old friends in cambridge and got drunk there instead. next time...

― toby, Wednesday, 30 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I don't do it that often Mark. Anyway I enjoyed myself - I can't remember a single thing I talked about though. Thanks to everyone who turned up for a fun evening - Pete, Jonnie, Cabbage, Starry, Ricky T, Edna, Mark S, Anna, DG, N., and Alan. (Did I miss anyone?)

― Tom, Wednesday, 30 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

yes

― gareth, Wednesday, 30 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Aaargh! Sorry Gareth!

― Tom, Wednesday, 30 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Subjects ranged (within the space pf 5 minutes) from Satanic metalists Black Widow to the way soprano's in opera generally die coughing up blood.

We also discovered who Buffy is about.

― Pete, Wednesday, 30 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

In my bag I had the magazine that contained this ad. But I had not read it properly yet, so could not show it around.

― mark s, Wednesday, 30 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Pete, don't forget that we talked about the next pub crawl project.

― chris, Wednesday, 30 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

'Project'? That makes it sound much grander and more complicated than is strictly necessary.

― Emma, Wednesday, 30 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Pub Superstars!!!! A Decathalon of Drinking. (Though actually we were thinking more in the region of eight pubs). A pub sport in each: Bar Billiards, Darts, Cribbage, Quiz Machine, Fruit mAchine, Flippin' Beermats, Table Footie, Pinball.....

Its the footcha!

― Pete, Wednesday, 30 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

pinefox the acid raver is looking forward to M25 orbital parties

― gareth, Wednesday, 30 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I would just like to give Mr Martin Robinson some credit for the pub superstars idea, he spawned the theory.

― chris, Wednesday, 30 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

my only slightly derivative "pub we are the champions" didn't go down too well.

― Alan Trewartha, Wednesday, 30 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

So jealous. Where are all the Melbourne ILE's to go pubbing with? I hate drinking alone.

― toraneko, Wednesday, 30 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

(brian wilson was great!)

― jel, Wednesday, 30 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

But is he still?

Anna knows Sophie. Should have guessed. London is TINY.

― N., Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

You can cross it in but two strides you know.

― chris, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Pete, Chris - when is next congregation of ILE'ers and WHO IS BUFFY ABOUT? I mean I know what it is about, but it is like that whole Lara Croft being based on real-life archaeologist currently in Bristol Uni's Arch.Dept.? Must know. Must.

― Wilfred the Beagle, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

next booze-up? dunno to be honest but soon probably

Buffy? my ears switch off when I hear the words, sorry. I hear it's a fantasy tv programme, very popular with people who like Lord of the rings and that.

― chris, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Chris: you mean GothXors?

― Tim, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

No, we decided which character the series was based around. Well, Pete put forward his theory and I'm mulling it over. The character was Xander.

― Sarah, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

thems the fellers, them and hippies, which is why you don't like it Tim. (I presume wildly)

― chris, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

The word 'Tim' in Nepalese means 'Tired Joke', doncha kno.

― Sarah, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

The words "tired joke" in Starry-speak apparently mean "the truth".

― Tim, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Actually, I think Buffy has its moments. I don't hate it, but I've never gone out of my way to watch it. It holds a similar rank in my esteem as Countdown. It is *so* a goth show, though.

― Tim, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

The words "Tim smells!!!" in English mean in Starryspeak.... EXACTLY THE SAME!!! Grrrrrrrrr tis NOT ABOUT GOFFS!

― the stockholm monsters were more goff anyway!, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

It is *so* a goth show, though.

har! harharharharaharrrrrrr Tim is OTM! RickyT you NEWBIE GOTH!!!

― katie, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

No, Ricky T = old school 4AD fan, => already goff. Har.

I have appointed myself the gothfynder general, btw.

― Tim, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Burn the Goff!

― chris, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I didn't say Buffy was *about* goths, Starry.

― Tim, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i am thinking that RickyT will be waiting behind the door to club me with a bigge stycke when i get home.

― katie, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I think the Gothfynder General needs his own thread. If not his own page on FT!

― Tom, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

HEY! I am not an old school 4AD fan. I might like Pixies, Muses and AR Kane and own some Cocteaus records, but I have never even heard an X-Mal Deutschland record, let alone liked one.

― RickyT, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I heard you had a stack of Mysteres de voixes Bulgares bootlegs RickyT?

(or whatever they were called)

― chris, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

If you say Ricky T fast it becomes "rickety".

― Nicole, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Tells he the truth, I ponder?

― , Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I do own one Mystere des Voix Bulgares record. I'd forgotten they were on 4AD for a bit. Come to think of it, I also own a fair few Guernica releases, but that was early nineties anyway = not old skool.

― RickyT, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Tim! fetch the ducking stool, we haff a goff!

― chris, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

BY HIS OWN TONGUE CONDEMNED!

― Tom, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I am not a GOTH!

Still, good job about that underground bunker draped in black tulle I installed when I heard these 'gothfynder' rumXoRs...

― , Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Oh now come on if you are going to be a goth having 4AD releases is a rather BORING way of being one!

― Sarah, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

large, very black lettering Sarah??????

slightly....shall we say........ GOTHIC script???

does she have a familiar? I ask of thee

― chris, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I don't know why Starry protests so. I think she should take it as a compliment.

If owning loads of old 4AD records makes you a goth, then my producer is a goth. And that is clearly not so. So the syllogism is broken.

― the pinefox, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Tim is Cleopatra, queen of DENIAL. Everyone knows he went to university of Leeds so that he could be closer to ELDRITCH. Physician, heal thyself!

― Edna Welthorpe, Mrs, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

AT LEAST make it GUTTER GLITTAH! (a href="http://www.netgoth.org.uk/music/">heh)

― Sarah, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

GOTH!!!!

― Sarah, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I have a large AFRO KEN dog, is he my familiar?

― Sarah, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

It is true I went to Leeds. But I gained a degree in KNOW YOUR ENEMY STUDIES.

With honours.

― Tim, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Also, La Welthorpe is known to me as a close personal friend of Ver NEFF so her words on these matters can only ever be weasel.

― Tim, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Syntax disaster: Welthorpe is the Nephilimophile, not I.

Starry: if you be not goth, what theme did you give the last PARTY at your COVEN?

― Tim, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I am more goth than you all. I not only have collections of early March Violets and Play Dead singles, I *LIKE* them.

― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

and you are coming over to England when Ned?.......

*builds a bonfire* ;-)

― chris, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

BURN THEM!

― Tom, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

At least you don't have any Switchblade Symphony or London After Midnight, Ned. That would be beyond the pale and I'd have to pretend I didn't know you.

― Nicole, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

TigXoRs?

― Sarah, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

My name was missed off the register.

― Ed, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Hm.

I did notice a cat-like creature on my patrols, but I supposed that was some kind of shape-shifting at your GOTHICK event.

― Tim, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Blimey Ed so you were. Sorry. The fact that both you and Gareth arrived a bit later i.e. when i'd drunk a bit is probably not a coincidence here.

― Tom, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

and you are coming over to England when Ned?.......

Been over three times already. Ha.

At least you don't have any Switchblade Symphony or London After Midnight, Ned.

Give me *some* credit.

― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 31 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Have a good time y'all. Btw, I read Mark S in Sight and Sound! I told my friend Lynsey about ILE and she looked at me wierd. Oh well.
