Broken Records are on tomorrow night here in Glasgow – my new abode – however Be A Familiar are on at this Mill thing at the Oran Mor so I’m heading along to that. It’s been recommended to me so we’ll see. I’m attempting to embed myself in the Glasgow scene now.. probably a bit more tricky seeing as the place is somewhat larger. Frightened Rabbit at the Arches later this month should be a cracking homecoming/biggest headline show yet affair. Then there’s Wee See Lights on the 1st, again as part of this ‘Mill’ selection.

Looks like I might miss the ‘final’ Great Invasion.. cock.

Wee Half China – I’m not sulking actually, I’m cogitating. You made some excellent points and I think I will post about it when I’ve had the chance to work out quite what I want to say. And work out how to not say it incredibly offensively as well.

Gav – I think you qualify as a true music nerd once you start buying things you know nothing about simply because they are on a little record label you’re keen on! I put that down as my turning point anyway.

Fuck! Is it Broken Records and Sparrow at King Tut’s tonight?..

I thought I’d missed that one last week.

There’s nothing more frustrating than thinking you’ve missed something so not bothering to check and then finding out you’ve missed it again when you hadn’t actually missed it in the first place.

Bollocks.

Ah, c’mon Mathew, you love a bit of meat to chew on and a rap across the knuckles. Keeps one in check does it not? Still friends? Take down those shields…

Through and through… I walked straight past a kebab joint and a chippy to get to that deli.

Nic are you some sort of middle class snob, with your tasty sandwiches and everything? Shame on you.

Rob, so is Broken Records and Sparrow & the Workshop at King Tut’s tonight, but it’s hard enough trying to stay on top of Edinburgh gigs. If I threw in Glasgow as well it’s take me all day.

I had a rather nice deli sandwich on the weekend: parma ham, fresh figs, gorgonzola and balsamic vinegar.

Radioactive with pretension by the time I’d finished it.

Yeah, I loved the first Snow Patrol album so much, I’m now ’songsforpolarbears’ most places on the net. I’m embarrassed about it now.

Hmm, why did they crawl so far up their own arses? Songs For Polar Bears is a good little indie debut.

I too bought stuff just because it was on Jeepster. And I’m glad I did. Salako were a fun find.

This seems to be on the verge of crossing paths with Euan’s ‘I love bums’ post.
