If you get to speak to Islander Faye, punch her in the cnut for me? Ta.

I noted that one already. It’s a free gig too, if I recall, so no excuse.

Prince Edward Island are playing The Caberet Voltaire in July (14th, I think) – one expects you to attend…

Yeah I saw that. I just informed Mrs. Toad that we would be going and the best she could manage when I described the event was a stunned silence. This is an unparalelled achievement of bizarre artistic gob-smackery and I applaud them. I’ve been trying to shut the old mare up for years, with nary a smidgin of success.

ALSO: most exciting thing of the week is “A trip out with British Sea Power” at the Caves tomorrow night (thursday)…they’re playing a soundtrack to the film The Man of Arran from 1934 as part of the film festival….

I think if we’re quick then we can catch found’s second set after the Bear Scotland night.
If not, probably just the DJ set.

Though I have been wrong in the past.

It is the longest day.
Though maybe I’m taking that a little too literally.

I ignored your post about the Hollow Heart Parlour because I know nothing about it and hence can hardly recommend it. So I left it in there as a ‘Bart Recommends’ sort of thing. Although god knows why if you’re going to be like this.

I was hoping that Botanics thing would be during the day so I could do both. I take it you’ve analysed the timing in depth and have decided that Bear Scotland first and Botanics second is the best way to do everything? If so then I shall throw my lot in with you I suppose. At least someone around here has a clue what they’re talking about, albeit a tenuous one.

I knew about the FOUND gig, but the details I have are sketchy (think the details are sketchy in general) and it clashes with the Bear Scotland night. And since you seem to be ignoring any of my contributions to the Edinburgh listings, I thought I’d cut you some slack. But never again, Matthew.

Never again.

Though according to Ziggy they’re doing two performances, and then a DJ set afterwards – so am planning to head down after the Henry’s show.
