I finally got the DVD last week, the extra features are fucking amazing, how they can keep a straight face during the interview part is beyond me.



"We're doing all we can but I'm not Jesus Christ. I've come to accept that now"

The best thing about Darkplace is it's so damn quotable!

I kept hearing Sanchez in my head saying '...but the chicken's off' last night...it was a beautiful thing.
Bonsai Superstar dragged me around M&S one day looking for pork pies, so he could say 'here, let me cut up your pork pie' but they have around 70 grams of fat in them so I passed.

'Ah you've spilt. Let me get a nurse to help you out of that night dress...'

id say pork pies could kill you if eaten regularly, unless you are scottish, of which i am 50%!

'Buns?'
'I've seen a couple I fancy...'

 

[Yurn!]

'Just out of interest Dag, what kind of batteries are you using?

'ALL THINGS DIGESTED HAVE A HUE! AND WITHOUT FURTHER ADIEU!!!'

o mai hed guyse!!!!1

 

[Kims Deal]

Yeah i really enjoyed it too..I wish there was more chatting and crowd interaction!
Worth €16 though. He is a handsome devil

 

[Shock]

Thanks to everyone who made it down last night, was good fun.
Our next party is the DFA records night Friday week in Crawdaddy with Sh*t Robo & The Juan Maclean. mail [email protected] for reduced guestlist admission.

 

[bloopitybloop]

Let me introduce the band...

That's a guitar, that's a keyboard, that's a drummer and I'M MATT BERRY!

 

[portrid]

"I pull back my skin and push forward with triumphant vigour.
If you wish to control your destiny, then you must pay the Devil.
Dare I be so bold as to take you on a personal journey?
Share my pain, my pleasure.
With me, experience the heady ecstasy of new love, as well as the aching torment of dark despair.
Feeding time at the zoo is upon us.
I have come to realise I am but already half way there.
Shall we enter?
Behind the line we are crouching motionless.
My blood now rushes through my veins like ground marble.
Like the colour of a Thames sunset, remember; all things digested have a similar hue.
So, without trepidation, I give to you: Opium.
I dream. I am a bird. Just flying, just flying"

oh, and it was so cool meeting Graham Linehan and Arthur Matthews in the lobby bar. They were both lovely, but Monsieur Linehan has to be the nicest chap in the world.

 

[sweetoblivion]

That was great, even if it was nearly ruined by those knobs up the front. I swear I nearly decked one of them. Tossers. Matt was very nice if a bit reserved, but he told me he'd put me on the list...however as I don't go into gigs and say 'can I just check there if I'm on the guest list?' I didn't know! Still, lovely of him. Didn't go up to Graham Linehan but he looked friendly! Berry's keyboardist and bassist were chatting to myself and a friend after for a few minutes and the keyboardist 'tried to lob the gob' at me as Bonsai Superstar put it. Bizarre. Maybe he got me confused for someone else?!?

anymore anecdotes from this gig?
