We played at The Slimelight once.....
What an experience that was. After we got laid into on some newsgroup by that uncle nemesis bloke. He described Mark the bass player as a Carl McCoy wannabe (Mark is 6"4) and me as a pub rock guitarist... cant remember what he said about our origional singer.
I later found out that he wasnt that keen on The Sisters and he hated the idea of tribute bands..... and you know what, we have NEVER been offered a gig in London since!
Paddy.

Still playing guitar - sometimes weird shaped ones.

Is it relevant to point out at this junctrure how much I detest the "Tradgoth" label?

Because it's something made up by rivet-heads and cyber types.

If the cap fits...
Why oh why oh why do people insist on going to "goth" nights and then insisting the DJs spend three quarters of the time playing rave music?

I must be colour-blind in that range then.Black Horizon wrote:Yeah and EBM isn't Rave music, it's Industrial music with hints of Techno.

I am back from London !
It was a great trip - and I and Mrs Goth are Shattered!
Much to our joint annoyance we were unable to make it to either Candem Market or "The Dev" at all over the weekend.
We do intend visiting again in a couple of months and we will be staying much longer!
"The Intredid Fox" On Friday was the same dump it has always been - but at least the toilets have been improved, even if the quality of the beer and the attitude of the bar staff has gotten much much worse!
"Satsuma" - off Dean Street - a japanese place was IIRC very "interesting" - I suggest a "Bento Box" to anyone (Sushi etc).
The visit to the Tate Modern was "inspiring" - I got to see a Dali classic close up, a decent "Francis Bacon" and one of the three full size versions of Rodin's "The Kiss". The "Turbine Hall" with its smoke, sun and mirrored ceiling was "Awe Inspiring" WOW!
My apologies to those who I may have missed in Candem/The Dev - I will be sure to spend a large amount of time in that area sometime soon!

"little tokyo" in leeds also do a rather spiffing range of bento boxes - i heartily recommend the tofu one
What’s the difference between a buffalo and a bison?

The "Bento Box's" are really great - in particular after 8 pints of Stella since 4 PM
These boxes allow you to have a small, yet filling, selection of various Japanease eats - I had Sushi, Grilled Chicken in Black Bean Sause, Seafood Dumplings and a Salad along with a Bowl of Rice and a strange "soup" which was "Fan-F***ing-Tastic!
And this was in Central London and it only cost £10.60!!!!!! - Which is Nice.
Perhaps a visit to "Leeds" (TM Home Of The Goths ) is in order in the very near future.

Hmmm. Lots of the "rivetheads" and "cyber-types" who I know ARE "tradgoths" - myself included! My theory is that we've all kind of gravitated toward/stuck mainly with industrial music, since "g*th" music has gone straight to hell...markfiend wrote:Because it's something made up by rivet-heads and cyber types.
