That Bungalow 8 Meet was months ago! I hope you havn't been floating around friendless all that time!

Friendless? Nooo...

Sounds good, we'll see you all on Sat night in the Abercrombie and will look out for the 6'7 DJ!

Cheers!

The next Britpop night is on Saturday 15th Sept at the Clare Hotel on Broadway... expect to hear 100% British indie tunes from the likes of Arctic Monkeys, Bloc Party, Stone Roses, Fratellis, Libertines etc...

FREE ENTRY and cheap drinks... starts 9pm!

Who is going to join me there...?

Indeed it is.

The Whingeing Poms have moved house....to The Clare Hotel! Their monthly Britpop shindig will be taking place on Saturday 15th September from 9pm until the bleary-eyed wee small hours. They guarantee 100% British indie and a healthy smattering of stiff upper lip. Gin and Tonic anyone? $9.50 St Arnou jugs will be the drinks promo of choice on the night. Expect to hear: Oasis, The Libertines, David Bowie, The Rolling Stones, Arctic Monkeys, Pulp et cetera et ceteraaaaaah!

No worries - I see you posted the advert from the Brag magazine, looked like a bit of a bizarre post at first but it all makes sense now!

Ha - just spreading the word as much as possible, would hate for people to miss out on one of the best nights in Sydney.

there are a lot of good bands that play here, Hard-Fi are here in Oct, Kings of Leon in Jan, the Klaxons are playing but they are sold out.

check out http://www.liveguide.com.au/liveguide_sydney.html - gives you a full list of the bands playing over here... it is my bible.

a few of us on this thread also go along to the thurs night drinks... we will be out in darling harbour tonight if you fancy it? if not, and if you want to meet everyone on sat then look out for a tall (6 foot 5") dark haired guy with glasses (he will be milling round the DJ area) and ask for Vicky and I will do the introductions.

If anyone is interested - there will a few of us heading to the Clare Hotel on Broadway this Friday 28th. It is a mix of music but it should be mainly indie - probably head there for around 9ish.....

Yes, I'm up for that. need to get out of the house after this convalescence and do some serious binge drinking. I'll be dead cheap too, as I have barely touched a drop for two weeks!
