Categories: Didn’t bother to do any flyering today. Was still knackered from last night and the weather wasn’t great. So decided to have another night off especially as there tends to be crowds in anyway from the weekend. Kind of wish I had now as the show started with 9 and ended up with 14. During which the other 5 that weren’t there at the start and the food being brought out and the women going to the toilet all helped to ruin the show. Once this started the audience kept nipping to the toilet, going for drinks and one of them slipped out for a cigarette. If that was bad enough she locked herself out so someone else had to let her in. Then a man came upstairs and completely interrupted the show because he didn’t realise the men toilets were downstairs. The doors and the chairs creak. I had the most miserable woman sat right at the front in the middle. I kept having to stop and pulling the show back. All in all my worst one. A real shame especially after the last 5 or so have been getting better and better.
The worst offender who went to the toilet, arrived late, got a drink and locked herself out for the cigarette asked me if I wanted to go to her show. She didn’t offer me any free tickets and told me she couldn’t put anything in the bucket because she only had a twenty-pound note. She also didn’t have a flyer for her show. Part of me was wondering where the hidden camera was. She topped the cheery on the cake by asking me if I could get any weed. Think Her show is at C Soco around 9.20. Please gatecrash and heckle.
Had a drink and chat with Emma which was great. She assured me the show was great and I was judging it by the last load of shows. We had a good chat about future plans and had a general catch up which was ace.
Dragged my sorry ass and guitar back to the flat, made a pizza and lay on the bed. That was fantastic to say the least. Sophia and Tina came back and we all flopped for a few hours then Sophia and I went to the Mercat and I got to do an opening 20 there to a lovely crowd. Rob Debb went on after and we had a good chat after. It was good to catch up.
On the way home Sophia and I found a Dim Sum restaurant that was open till 3am and we ordered a load of starters and a bottle of wine. It was a lovely way to send her off as she’s off to Turkey the next day. Lucky cow.
