man. That mo-fo stays busy!

In order to mark the gallery’s first decade a three-day multi-arts event called No Soul For Sale - A Festival of Independents will take place from May 14-16.

Thanks Rob.

had not seen previous thread. forgive!

You brits get some fucking bad ass shit!

How long does it take to get from the north of England to the south and from the east to the west?

i wasn't having a go at you Rob, just pointing out that another thread existed.

how long depends wether you mean planes, trains or automobiles. i can't make the Tate gallery (which is in the east) because i will be at ATP (in the west) about 4+ hours drive away.

hey stu666 no probs man.



Re driving times. I always wonder because some places are geographically weird and it takes a while to cross them. Puerto Rico for example is about 100 miles east/west and 25 miles north/south, but to go from south to north takes forever becaus eof the mountain range.

It takes a 12-14 hour drive, going 80mph most of the way, to get from Houston (east) to El Paso TX (west).

this is on my birthday - which i've booked off work... perhaps i should consider a day trip.

take a trip! take pics! share them with us lowly Houstonians who did not get a SY concert off their last tour, even though we are the 3rd largest city in the USA.

sucks to be a houstonian?:rolleyes:

in some respects!

you should see the plethora of gorgeous women from every nation in the globe though.....

and they wear very little, even at downtown firms, cuz it's hot and muggy and the fabric clings to their every curve just like knox likes it.

Hmmm, I'd say 7 hours drive south coast of england to north coast of scotland, 5/6 hours from the welsh west to the east coast. You asked...

Sunovabitch - I'm dahn sarf that week for Boredoms & Pavement, but head back on the 13th :(

thanks. i am jealous.

Tempting... could make up for my Madrid heartache...
Anyone have any idea what kind of set Thurston will be playing?

Could be an improv set. My guess goes out to the new batch of songs he wrote for his upcoming EP on EPL.

more info soon at http://www.nosoulforsale.com/index.php/2010

Just got my ticket. Johnny, hopefully we'll bump into each other!

i would love to see this...Is he going to conduct the musicians like the Branca performances?

seems like the tickets have already gone...

I'll display my ignorance - who's Eva Prinz?

yes it is.

Thanks.

Not that it makes any difference, I can't go.

Does anyone have a spare ticket for the performance? damn my procrastinating tendencies..

Same here, I'm looking for two spare tickets. I'm not really hopeful - the website was pretty vague.

I can't believe it took this long for someone to mention that Eva looks like a hot little number. Kim beware, men are pigs after all and more affairs happen at work than any other arena...

the sex arena! I managed to score tickets from a loverly person who didn't want theirs. Very lucky! It shall be a good birthday!

Thanks TJ. I'll keep an ear out for that.

Oh well, there's always the Listen Again thing.

Anyone wishing to do the listen again thing on 6 music, it's at 2:12.30-ish - 2:25.30-ish:

(It's well worth it)

I'm waiting for someone to reply to a pm. If they don't by tonight my friend has two spare tickets to give away. If anyone wants them I'll pm you his number.

Have sent you a PM Mr. Genteel Death, hopefully I'm not too late.

Pm sent.

ah, shall keep an eye out for you! - I'll probably be wearing a blue pneu t-shirt if anyone wants to come and say hello! That being said I might have a panic attack and run away. :P

How many people need ticks? I'm waiting for returns.

DJ Spooky and Cosey Fanni Tutti, can't beat that.

Forget it, they're doing returns for tonight only, apparently.
