The weekend beer and music thread

[WeeGord]

Afternoon folks, hope you're all trying to keep cool... this heat is a real killer, I wish it was cold, dark and 3ft deep of snow right now. I definitely come from Northern European stock I'd say!

Another week passes, another lack of signings. I'm starting to wonder whether we're keeping our powder dry for the January sales at this rate! Why do we always seem to excel in taking forever about things? We really need to get some movement soon otherwise I fear we're going to start the season with a real disadvantage.

I'm off to Blackpool for the weekend for a friends 60th so sorry for the early start, but here's a craking song to kick things off with.

Summery Dreampop / Shoegaze...

heineken zero (something I never thought I'd enjoy), munching on cherries, watching cricket on tv & wearing a pair of spurs shorts which I bought about 15 years ago cos they were dead cheap in jd sports, and I'll never have to wear them in public. cheers.

Working, so dry tonight but here's a classic bit of Lennon, covering Little Richard ....

 

[rkangel]

Went for coffee with a friend I’ve not seen for 2 years. Turns out we’re both excited about seeing these. In November…

Hiding in the shade here in France and going to go down to the lake for a dip later. Was far too hot to go out on the boat.

Presently listening to Led Zeppelin whilst keeping an eye on the cricket. Have a lovely weekend guys and gals and remember your cap if you are going out.

Not even noon here, so coffee and the new Jim Bob single here:

Bought his Rock n Roll album a hell of a long time ago. Its very good, think Ill have a listen later tonight.

 

[Subbuteo_171]

Budvar first up. Asahi next, with a Paulaner to follow.

Perfect relaxed drinking weather. Sat in the garden.

Big day tomorrow, meeting our sons gf's family for first time, on warnings from everyone for best behaviour.

Cheers all, enjoy.

I haven't listened this for a good while, one of those you play it it to death. Came out in 1976 which was a summer much this one.
Just need the Ladybird swarms.

Happy weekend everyone

A few on the street have often talked about trying to get a street party going, but it has never really got near happening to the degree hoped. Tonight, we have arranged 5 houses getting together for a house crawl 7pm - Midnight (drinks and snacks on offer at all provided by the occupiers) I’ve got some music put together and a mix of wines, lagers and soft drinks, spirits locked away lol.

As it is such a hot evening, currently 22 degrees on the phone up here, I thought I’d play a song from one I have set up for this evening (second stint), it feels appropriate, hope you enjoy.

 

[Norman_Conquest]

We’ve been for our swim and the bar is officially open. Deb on the Leffe and I’m on the pastis 51.

Lots of police needed tonight around Deepdale Avenue then, steer clear everyone

I'd just like to point out that Sir Richard Starkey was 85 this week, and this is his finest 3 minutes. Only a B side, most bands would kill to produce something like this.
And I'm drinking gin and orange to rehydrate.
That's OK, isn't it

 

[bumface]

Bumface has decided to turn evil. I'm sick to death of being nice bumface. It gets you nowhere. I was evil bumface years ago and I did rather well out of it back then. This probably will lead to my people wiping out humanity. Thought it was only fair to warn you guys about that. Soz.

What a strange thing to say, be nowhere near us if there were

 

[borolad259]

I saw Courtney playing lead guitar for Du Blonde last autumn. She was fantastic. She doesn't quite get the same crowds for her own stuff, but she still performs as though she's a rock star. Something she seems born to be. Not bad for a mackem.

 

[guisborough_rob]

Evening all. Up in Sunderland to see the Levellers tonight. I must admit it’s with a tinge of sadness as my son texted me last night to say that one of his friends was buried yesterday and was a big fan. Bruno was only 45 and this was his favourite song….

 

[TeessideCleveland]

Finished work and absolutely f-u,,cked - so sat down half asleep with a couple of cans of Cruzcampo and Staropraren watching the BBC4 music stuff from 8pm

Have a great weekend everyone - be interesting to see what this is like with new presenters next month
