Oh Dear God.

[caddyman]

It seems that there is a strong possibility that I shall be going to a club in Birmingham tomorrow night.

The horror.

I was a young fogey and now I'm a middle aged fogey; I am not a clubber. Never was - even in the days when they played my sort of music. Actually they never played my kind of music. Can you imagine a Prog Rock Night Club? No, neither can I.

So. Leather jacket, King Crimson T-Shirt, dark glasses, baffled expression, ear plugs and pained wallet.

And Phyllosan. It fortifies the over forties, apparently.

This may be my last ever post.

Note: Maybe pax_draconis was just joshing me. I hope...

All the amusing things happen when I'm away :-(

I'm glad you're amused.

I bet the bloody place doesn't even sell proper beer...

you could go to whirly, there's a chill-out room at the back which sells you a nice cup of tea and a biscuit. (And you bring your own beer, which is cheaper and nicer than beer at clubs normally.)

Unfortunately, Brian is in Birmingham this weekend, which rather gets in the way of coming to Whirly.

On the other hand, Brian - if Jane's description intrigues, I could remind you nearer to the next one?

So I've heard. I mean what DO these young people drink?
And I don't suppose the Disc Jockey will turn down his record player so one can talk.
I have to say my preference is more Chalkie's "local" - The Church!

That's a 3-minute giggle.

*LOL* Caddy out clubbing, sitting there with his tea and biscuit.

(yes, yes, Pot and Kettleblack)

Behave, child.

A prog-rock nightclub eh?

*imagines much heated discussions afterwards about the difference between Rick Wakeman and Tony Kaye's Hammond organ sounds on "The Yes Album" and "Fragile" respectively*


Twould be nice though. How would one dance though?

20 minute air guitar solos.

I have a cousin who used to run one in Belfast for a time back in the seventies. A wee bit before my time alas but it would have been something. Think he called it "Silver Machine".

20 minute air guitar solos sound like a chuckle.
However should they be lucky enough to hear the gentle strains of "Larks Tongue In Aspic Parts I and II", 2 people shall have to face the strain of air-drumming, one replicate Bill Brufords patterns and the other skitzing out in proper James Muir stylee. Not to mention an air-violin session.
