[redhead Subject: seven-seas ...trail of dead I went to see trail of dead in manchester on Thursday. i had a great evening. pretty wierd though. Before the gig, I was having a little trouble. My ticket had not arrived at the box office. I was getting a little sweaty, as I had travelled over from sheffield. So I tried to find the venue to speak to the door staff. I am not familiar with manchester union and I accidentally stumbled into this promotions room full of posters. I sezied my opportunity and asked the geezer in there if they had any promotional posters for the gig (great souvenir thought I). The gent spoke with an american accent and I twigged that it was actually the lead guitarist/singer for trail of dead. What a stroke of luck! I explained my problem with the ticket, so he arranged for a back-stage pass. No poster though, I was gutted! So they played. And they kicked ass! An awesome selection of mellow and explosive songs. About three times during the gig, this bird ran on stage and tried to make out with one of the band. oN her third attempt she managed to get round the back of the stage and she never came back. After the gig I exploited my ticket priveledges and hung out with the band. What a thoroughly nice bunch of lads. But there was this girl, the same one who ran on stage, trying it on with everyone and trying to get us all pissed on vodka, and just being a pain in the arse. well, after an hour we all got kicked out by the manager so i grabbed my stuff, said thanks to all, and left. When I got outside, i saw this bird again, staggering along the main road. Shed got about 100 yards and then she took a dodgy step and fell flat on her face. i raced over, to find her semi conscious with front teeth smashed. no-one seemed to be with her, and she was pretty f~~ked, so i called an ambulance. we went to hospital and i sat and waited with this bird, whom id never met, whose name i didn't know, who was throwing up all over the place, for about 2 hours. i was sat next to this geezer, covered in facial scars and looked pretty f##ked, whose bird had just overdosed on heroin. then this other guy went into a fit on the floor and lay there squirming for about five minutes before anyone came. just a few yards away was this bunch of lads who were also at the gig. one of these was hit by a flying cymbal, and had a nice cut on his head. funny thing was, even though this bird was trying it on the whole band both on and off-stage, she had a boyfriend in the audience. she just f##king left him there while she flirted off back-stage. after about an hour and a half of waiting, a call cam through to the hospital, and it was her boyfriend, wondering what the f##k had happened to his bird. he came over right away, and i left to go back to sheffield. 'mental' is the word.

Details will follow -- I don't know the name of the club.>> I'm betting that you are probably playing the Bugjar or the Water Street Music Hall (depending on the scale of the event). The Bugjar is a very hip club that gets all kind of cool and unusual acts into town. The Water Street Music Hall is a huge club which brings in a variety of different bands. The holiday season timing on that one could be very tricky for me, but if there is any way I can swing it, I would really like to catch this gig.

A little Christmas treat for those who are lacking a copy of Candleland. I found two copies of it at Amoeba yesterday in the clearance bin. They were $4.95 each and have a tag inside saying that the CD is slightly imperfect looking but plays fine (which I confirmed.) I figured that was too good to pass up because I'm sure there are people here who don't have it (and everyone should!!) First two people to email me privately can have them for the cost plus whatever the shipping comes out to. Cheers, Anne Yahoo! Shopping - Thousands of Stores.

I am, Raj, I am! :-) As it turns out, I got to talking privately with someone on the Nick Cave list about the Bunnymen, because he said he still played old Bunnymen music! I asked him if he knew they were still active and told him about the EP and he said he actually saw the WAYGTDWYL tour, but had no idea the EP was out. I gave him the gimme addy and he wrote back and said he bought it!!!! Cool!
