Why - yes, sir, they do...just like stunning straight males exist. Granted, it's a rarity, but it's definitely a fact!
Actually, there are probably more stunning lesbians on the planet than there are stunning straight males, ffs.

Welcome to HL.

That is Emo Emu. Humor is an alien concept to him. He knows only despair.

This roughly is what I saw first:

As I'm currently sober, & wasn't when I wrote my post, I can actually see why me writing 'stunning lesbians do exist' could get a bad reaction now. Oops.

Remember kids, don't drink and post! You'll get your keyboard soaked.

And strangely enough I did! I had fun sucking up the Tiger beer from the keys though.

Yes.. sadly, you're right. And annoying that is too, when one of them is the campest person one knows..

Ok here's a few Phono memories... not sure how 'amusing' they are, but might make filler:

* our hero, Mr. Eldritch, once spent a happy night around '89 at the bar in the phono standing next to a "spiggy" lookalike ala '85. Everyone ignored the authentic Eldo, but several people asked the imposter if he was the man...

* arriving at opening time (noon) saturday, picking up a member of the opposite sex, going back home at closing (4:30) for a few hours fun, then returning at 9pm for the evening was a rare, but fun delicacy. Bonus points for leaving at 2:00am "accompanied".

* Nothing nicer than forgetting the time change and getting an extra hours drinking (regardless of the direction the change went...)

* Final night (around '92), I remember peeling off bits of the wall and ceiling to take home as momentos. I think somebody got the beer pumps...

* Nothing but p*ss, p*ss, p*ss on the toilet floor. Yet still people did it in the bogs (hello Doug)

* I remember snogging some lass, going to throw up, coming back and continuing where I left off, without her noticing. I had such class in those days...

* Getting ready take some lass home, then being told she couldn't coz she had school tomorrow, but it would be okay on saturday.... (think I hit the Uni that that week)

* Being told if I couldn't make it up the stairs, I was barred for life. I couldn't. But was back the next week anyway.

* Being taught to DJ by Geoff. Half the time he'd be chatting to some lass with huge busts up til about 10 seconds before the end of the song then rushing to queing up the next one. "Remember, Stuffies and Poppies always go together".

* Remember Claire announcing the first Iraq war had started over the mic. I remember the shock and holding of hands over our faces.... a quite profound bonding moment.

God I could go on... if you're out in California, gimme a PM.

Theres a group on face book apparenlty for ex phono ppl - something like i miss the phono. quite a few of the staff and regulars.
Theres even supposedly a reunion this w/e in Leeds

I think I sat in some sick in there, once

Not much of a tale, but a tale anyway.

It wasn't your sick, was it..?

someone once told me that they caught That Guitarist snogging a bloke in the bogs once

not entirely sure if i believe that, but its not out of character from what i can gather

I'd hop straight onto the next trans-Atlantic flight from Leeds-Bradford, only there's two slight flaws - 1. No flights to the US and 2. She Who Must Be Obeyed might have something to say

tell her: "i'm going to buy ciggies"

*he comes back after 10 years*

"ooooh, what a mess at the tabacconist...."

That wouldn't be Doug that was into piercings would it?

I had a piece of the ceiling, I remember Geoff hanging up a dead raven one hallowe'en, other stories will have to wait until I'm sober enough to remember...

I used to go a lot in 83/84 but no stories of note to share. Overt enjoyment wasn't the order of the day. We just used to admire the Siouxsie look-alikes from a dark corner and discuss Nietzsche.
