Jan 9th, IGI compilation launch

[Catalyst]

Neverborn were great altho I think Jez picked the wrong instrument to play. Should have played guitar instead of keyboard. Or better yet learn guitar and then alternate between guitar and keyboards.

I can play guitars, I'm just not that good anymore, In fact I'm fucking terrible.   But after all the technical problems onstage last night with my keyboards cutting out of the mix I should maybe consider it.  First one of the DI boxes was intermittant, and then my pedals kept vibrating loose on the wobbly Castle stage.  Meh, you were all too drunk to care.    

Mhorgl were awesome.

Yeah, the first couple of gigs I saw them I was critical of them, but the last three gigs I have been much more impressed, and last night they were killer, really nasty sounding.

What was the turn out like?

[Nosaj]

The turnout was fairly good. But I think the castle curse started to strick when Mhorgl were playing.
Pretty hilarious how my drinking glass broke when I clicked mine with Trease's glass. But I think my glass was already weaken'd from comming out of the hot dishwasher and having ice put into it for a drink. Dramatic temperature changes is what makes glass shatter or crack easily.

Thanks for the info.

[Nosaj]

You are welcome.

Looking forward to hearing The Ascent live, their song on the compilation is really good. 

Still waiting on the rest of your review...

still waiting to hear your review of the Khariot track...

I was thinking that it might be an idea if you wanted to bring some copies to our CD launch.

That would be awesome. I also need to pick up some more copies of your first two albums, I seem to have given away my own copies!

What was the turn out like?

Nearly 100 people turned up, and 40 copies of the album were sold. Not bad for it's first day.

See Trease, the standard way to clink glasses is to moderately tap the rim of your glass against the top edge of the other person's glass. Not, as I observed, to aggressively slam the thick base of your glass into the fragile thin rim of the 'victims' glass. 
Poor old Jase, having to scull back the rest of his drink filled with shards of glass. Lucky his years of bernie's kebabs, ziggy's pizza, peters by the sea and other assorted buckets o' meat has given him a cast iron stomach.

Having flogged this compilation CD pretty hard this last week, I wanted to say that a couple of songs have real grown on me.  The songs by Archaic and Advent Sorrow in particular take a couple of listens but are really cranking tracks, Advent Sorrow has some sweet and inventive keyboard licks hidden in the mix too.

I don't go to peters by the sea anymore. Don't even need to go to city kebabs for a bucket of meat, cos the one in northbridge does it too. Also Ziggys in no more. But newer and better pizza places have cropped up. Also Daz you forgot to add years of fishing and drinking baileys to that list.

But to point something out I have never drunk baileys while I was actualy out fishing. Altho when I went back to the caravan I did have a drink of baileys then.
