Heartland

hi, i'm an 'old' goth - stuck in the back of beyond and looking to find some likeminded people who must still be out there! (and not the emokids dressed in black which is what passes for goth round here!)
sisters a very old and favourite band so thought i'd start here!
anybody else bored beyond endurance?!
talia

good evening, you have come to the right place

Hello Talia

Welcome on board.
Can't go far wrong here I can tell you.
Emo free zone!

thanks for the welcome, will be nice to speak to some people over the age of consent! that actually know what 'proper' goth is - not that i'm not open to new stuff but, well, you know what i mean (i hope!)
all this is a bit new to me - forums and all that - used to have 'sounds' in the old days - pop an ad in and penfriends galore (how quaint!) now i find myself stuck here on my own, hard to find people like me - hopefully am addressing that here and now

Hullo there!

wouldn't say the "G" word to loud if I were you.



There loads of goffs here (albeit closet ones )

Take Uncle James for example.

just how old of fartness are you?

and watch it Cureboy

Probably too young to say hi, but I'll go hello nevertheless

Hello.

I'm doing an old goth radio show tonight, you'll love it!

no, sweetheart, you're a bit older than my son so that's ok!
i'm just over 40 - and feel a whole lot more! had a bit of a grim time a few weeks ago when i went to 3 gigs in a week - terrorvision, ministry and wedding present. they were all great but made me realize how isolated i am here - just didnt know anyone and, whilst i dont mind going to gigs on my own, 3 in a week was a bit much! need to 'meet' some new people, i really do!
nice to meet you all =

see it's on at 9 - will try and listen. dont have a great internet connection here (someone sneezes and it goes down for the whole village!) so it crashes and freezes all the time but i will surely give it a go. have had some trouble listening to music recently (bad break up and all that sh*t) but have to get back into it, it's been such a huge part of my life and i dont want to give it up
cheers

Welcome aboard Talia!

IZ.

Hi Talia, welcome aboard. There are a lot of "old goths" around here (including myself ). Btw, nice taste in music you have!

"Cureboy"

Priceless stuff, James. I vote for "Cureboy" as Steve's forum rank, if any mods are reading.

Anyhoo, Talia, depending on how far in the back of beyond you are (and some of us are out in "raound heeyaoh we haing hoss theives" back-of-beyondness), we do fairly regular meet-ups and I'm sure you're more than welcome to toddle along and say "hi" any time.

Are you in London by any chance?
If so, you could join the London Goth Meetup Group

yeah, London Village, ya FUD!

you have meetups -cool! i live in west norfolk (and yes, i am the only one!)but london's easy enough to get to. my only problem at the mo is that i'm working weekends til october - no chance you meet up in the week is there?! otherwise, will have to wait til then. would love to meet some of you, really would.
*goes to dig out some goth stuff from the million boxes in the spare room!!*
other than that, i can now drive wherever (ex always did the driving cos i 'couldnt') but, since getting my new beloved car, missfliss, i've been all over-it's amazing what you can do when you have to

OI!
I resemble that remark.

No. I do really.

thank you, it was a good week on the music front! just the isolation thing got to me a bit- it all seemed to be kids and loved-up couples!

IF you're interested in LGMG then here's the site link: http://goth.meetup.com/8/

The upcoming meets/events are the Alternative Bring N Buy this Sunday (that's more an event than a meet) and a Goth Walk (about Steampunk) next Wednesday

hope this isnt considered too rogue- obviously sisters is why we're here but, is anyone into cardiacs?!
