Pissing on my own flyer! 11/9/2007
Alright?
I played at The Macbeth in Hoxton last night. It was a really good turn out so thanks to all who made the journey down. Proper little dive of a venue too. I did it as a favour for my mate Alan who was putting on his first night at the place, probably his last too.
As Tony Hadley once said, to cut a long story short, I brought 99% of the audience, spent £24 on cabs (as I had to bring an amp for one of the other bands), and what did I get?!!! F*ck all! Sound familiar?! After paying the sound man £70, alan was £3 down so couldn't give me any money for cabs! Classic!
The first band were called Expedition Order and were noisy f*ckers. The guitarist was playing a petrol can and the bass player wore a gas mask. No sh*t. Can you guess what they sounded like?! Nice guys though.
I was next and was pretty happy with my performance. I had actually rehearsed for it and do you know what, it worked. I didn't f*ck up once! My mate Michael said he thought I was 'alright' but should have been playing like it was Wembley Stadium. Easy for him to say. Look at it the place....
The electro outfit Sam Amant were on after me and were f*cking nuts. Very Nathan Barley. All shiny gold leggings and dungarees. Just think of that scene in Mighty Boosh where they're doing the '..I am electro boy, you are electro girl..' scene and you get the idea. I liked it but it cleared the room...
Anyway, just before I got on stage, I went for a wee wee and I saw that I was pissing on one of my own flyers that had found it's way into the urinal (no photo available). I guess irony can be pretty ironic sometimes....
I'm playing next Friday 21st at Mother bar in Old St so we'll see what happens then. I think I can guess...
Later yeah!?
