Apologies I Have None have just been added to the Friday night show which has made my day and Tony at No Idea has been kind enough to send us some Fest posters so the first 15 or so people through the door on Saturday that wants one can have one. As far as the bowling goes we're thinking a half one meet for a 2pm bowl. We need to book and pay in advance so can anyone that's coming for definite let me know asap? It'll be £6.25 each total I think for two games. I can't make it 'cause I can't move into my new house till 2pm on the saturday. I'll come out once I've moved my stuff in. How many people are coming down for the kingston festivities? I've no idea if its like 5 or 55 haha Who knows!? That's part of the fun of being a DIY promoter with no advance tickets, there's no telling if anyone will turn up at all! I guarantee it'll be a fun night though! |

Think I would have had a lot more fun if I hadn't spent all day feeling so bloody ill! Not a bad turnout although I don't think the Pompey all dayer and todays Brighton all dayer helped as Atom Bomb aside I don't think anyone at all came up from down south. The bands seemed happy though and lots of people said they had fun so all is good!
So who's coming to Young Livers in Brixton next week? I plan to be well for that one as I'm not drinking at all between now and then!! |

Pre-show bowling is deffo the way forward. There was a really cool atmosphere at the show, I had a few people come up to me and just say how everyone was proper friendly and having a genuinely good time. I think i'm gonna be making the trip down saaaf more often. Good to meet y'all! |

I'm gonna change some money this week for Gville but have no idea how much to change :S how much does 9 days of debauchery cost in dollars?

You can count on it! I reckon i'll be takin you up on that. Money eh...I dunno, I reckon i'm gonna be takin 5-600 quid which should be more than I need for a week but just to be on the safe side and that. Really only gonna be spending on beer, food, armpit tat and Fest-specific merch (the rest you can always get thru mailorder anyway). Although sayin that, you're always gonna come back from Fest with a shitload of records. Exchange rate has sorted itself out a bit for you tho!

I only exchanged £450 and that's to cover both my US trips! You've got me worried that I've under budgeted now! |

I only exchanged £450 and that's to cover both my US trips! You've got me worried that I've under budgeted now! Ha! I wouldn't worry, i'm just being overly cautious. I don't have designs to spend the lot, it's just how much i'll have between dollars and bank account when I go. I remember last time I came back from the US, my lift from the airport to home decided to go to the wrong airport. Cue me having to shell out on a Heathrow-Hull train journey at the end of a holiday. It's shit like that that makes me wanna have a little bit extra. |
