Heartland meet-up... idle chatter!

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I think they hold all the live gigs there.
NOOOOO! Mind you, I'd always wondered how any band played at the Phono. Assuming the stage is where the DJ used to be, it would be pretty small and partly obscured by the pillar, surely?

Anyways, haven't seen them shrouded in smoke yet, and AS LONG AS THEY'RE STILL PLAYING BODY ELECTRIC I'll forgive the change of venue.
Go to sleep now, Francis.

I popped into the Basement last year

Bigger with a higher ceiling. Still has the Phono's cheep bar.

They had a smoke machine going then, and the stage is small but deep

Is the Bassment what used to be TopCats? If so, yikes and double yikes. That was THE place in the early ninties for those Mother&Daughter combos. Probably inspired Trisha, Oprah and all that gubbins.

One assumes it's better now.

I think it's been all sorts. On the edge of the Merrion Centre underneath what used to be Woosters pub. Used to be one of Mrs T's old haunts!

Dan and I ended up there after SG's leaving do. Didn't recognize any of the music myself but sounded like it might be right up Black Horizon's ginnell.

And of course all the Cure fans will be down at Pilton (Glastonbury Festival to you)

This should stop things from getting too soppy

We can have our own version with locals. Four of us are currently in Maryland, so we can plan a Still in Baltimore party. :wink:

@ QB - there sould be a 'male under duress "gulp"' emoticon.

And the first person who decides to respond with 'emoticon', 'female' and 'swallow' in the same sentence, should be banned for life! :lol:
