Forget About The Sugar

I don't know about you, but I don't go out dancing nearly enough. If you feel the same way, why not come out next Friday night, to a new club night called Forget About The Sugar.

The flyer says they will play Annie, Vitalic, The Go! Team, Girls Aloud, Pet Shop Boys, Goldfrapp, St Etienne, Stereolab, Missy Elliott*, Gwen Stefani, Basement Jaxx and The Postal Service. I have it on good authority that there will also be grime and crunk and possibly some reggaeton being played.

Come and shake a leg with me.

*Yes, that almost certainly means 'Lose Control'. W00t!

I think I could do that; it's cheap and I can walk home. If I only drink water all night, and my ankle doesn't give out on me* I'm definitely up for it.

*I've jinxed myself by saying that, haven't I?

Will there be Prince, do you think?

People, people, London people do you not want to dance with me? Let's put our pretties on and be better than everyone else- come along people, let's throw off the shackles of mmmppp and be hedonistic children of the glitterstarbrigadefaction.

Who's going to dance with me? Let's see that bright eyed enthusiasm? I'm getting old before my time, I need your help.

Sounds sublime, and not in the sticking bits of x-men onto yourself sense of the word. Not sure if I'm free on Friday night, but if I am, I shall be there.

Ah dilema, brain split to now overcome...

Work summer party, free booze, directors (*shudder)
or
Silly dancing, less booze, more affable people.

hummmmmm

They're pretty sure it will be back to normal by tomorrow morning. My friend's brother is in the Herts constabulary and he's been called in for the clean up operation tonight. It sounds like London should be *physically* back to normal tomorrow.

Okay - looks like the night has been cancelled. Apparently a friend of the organisers' is still missing after yesterday. I'm crossing my fingers for them, and, well, what else is there to say, really?

Well I dunno about you, but I could still do with a fucking good drink after all of this. How's about London barbelith raising a glass or ten in the Blue Posts (or somewhere) after work tonight?

14:59 / 08.07.05

Yeah - about to start a thread on that very subject - just weighing up issues of venue - bear with me.

blue posts on newman street seems good to me - central (and thus equally distant for everyone) yet close to bus routes...

Any more news re: the missing person? I hope everything is okay there...

And I knew I'd jinxed myself. Ouchy.

No more news.

Don't really know how to reconcile these two awfully different facts...

The girl in question died in the attacks, PM me for more info. Fucking horrible.

Forget About The Sugar has been rescheduled for 12th August.

Same place?

18:21 / 10.08.05

Yes it is.

Will there be drinks beforehand?

Drinks are good. Suggestions as to what to wear? ::wishes he'd brought slightly more fashionable clothing::

Fly Beezy (War Minister)

18:51 / 10.08.05

I could tell you what not to wear. Would that help?

Tryphena Absent

18:54 / 10.08.05

Stripes are probably a good bet. I'm wearing jeans and my mock victoriana top, that's all I ever wear to events like this.

Psi-L is working in hell

19:01 / 10.08.05

I'm there....though possibly not in stripes. It's my last weekend in London for six months, so feel I need to make the most of it!

Ideally I would wear a pair of Polo Skipperys, matching cap, razor blades in my gums (BOBBY!), and a yellow Havana Joe's goose jumper.

Sad to say, I will be wearing none of the above.

What should one not wear?

Bard: One-Man Humaton Hoedown

20:23 / 10.08.05

I have some plain colored t-shirts, black jeans, a few dress shirts, and a black suit jacket/blazer thingy. I didn't exactly expect to go clubbing whilst here.

Never a good idea to go to a club dressed as the Cape Crusader. Unless...y'know...its one of THOSE clubs.

telyn

21:18 / 10.08.05

Yes, shall be there. Wearing clothing of an undecided variety. Maybe even varigated.

Rex Feral

10:14 / 11.08.05

Stripes are probably a good bet

I've got stripes.

Don't wear this:

Old dear. Gin. Problems

11:43 / 11.08.05

Those 'Nobody Knows I'm A Lesbian' t-shirts are still considered pretty stylish, in London, if you're a guy.

Actually there may be a few of those. Remember that diagram I drew last night? The one that explains EVERYTHING?
