> whatâ€™s the general consensus on Adline?

Written in the first person, no bylines, sloppy grammar…

*JOKING*

A mole writes… Bob magazine is the work of Alan Johnstone, former editor of Adline. Whether this casts light onto any of the above comments I’m not sure.

The Warehouse Project Beneath the Streets

Good stuff – Friday afternoon boozing on a warm(ish) spring day. Just back from the Abercrombie on Bootle St myself. Full of briefs and villains :)

If you’re local to Tib St, permit me a plug – the guy who did our artwork is Jamie Barnes – also the proprietor of Applique Apparel, just up the street from Centro. For screen printing, garments, graphics etc they are the tops!

Ah – different sweaty basement I’m afraid – TTOO started in Centro.

Corbiere’s was That Amazing Thing – similar names and timeframes, though I am not Francis Wooff!

> I donâ€™t see any point in a rave

There really is no answer to that! Are you including all forms of discotheque and pre-recorded musical soiree there?

> I listen to â€™sad bastard musicâ€™

There’s no such thing, unless you’re an avid Black Lace fan.

Fairplay for not rising to my trolling about live music and musicians :) That said, any “live” or “traditional” musical performer who gets up on stage to entertain an audience is *by definition* on an ego trip, regardless of how obscure or underground they may be. Not to judge you understand, I just prefer something more group-participatory myself.

> Great night you used to have by the way

Cheers – if you’re thinking of This Thing of Ours that is. Sounds like we’ve met – did you ever go?

We did a six month run in the second half of last year, but it’s back on hiatus now. I want to go to other people’s clubs for a bit instead of organising one. It’s not a sustainably healthy lifestyle :)

If you think that the point of a rave is to watch the deejay then you’ve missed it entirely.

Sticking with live bands means sticking with the tyranny of the front-facing, artist-audience dichotomy.

That’s great for record companies who want to market “product” to “fans”, and for the egos of those on stage. Not so great for the rest of us.

What’s more, a kickdrum and a synth have more sheer visceral passion than any collection of shaggy muso knobheads could ever muster.

That said, Â£40 is a total ripoff. Get thee to a free party young man.

Any designers in the house?
