Oasis - The Shock of the Lightning

The View TITP warm-up on Thursday then TITP Fri-Sun.

How come? Thinking about aplying for small and standard at East Newington Place.

Firmed Mech Eng at Edinburgh. Now applying for accomodation.

When Grace started I was nearer the back but by the end I was nearly right beside the barrier so must of been near you for most of the gig. Was annoyed by the wee girls falling over every song.

What were they doing and where abouts were you standing?

What was the best gig then?

Yeah, they played Face For The Radio. Was one of the only times they've done it.

They've never done an encore, they just chop and change the setlist depending on how the gig is going. Encores are fake crap anyway. In Dundee they played a 24 song set compared to 20 in Inverness.

You'll be able to sell it outside no bother.

Life. The first bit sounds like an early Oasis tune.

Tesco don't have it in so I'm having to use Spotify. Album is quality.

Album is sounding quality. Can't wait for next Monday. Then Caird Hall. Then TITP. The View are on fire!

Previews of the songs are on amazon. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Bread-and-Circuses-Explicit/dp/B004M6SN8E/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1296834849&sr=8-3 Gonna be immense.

Got the Caird Hall tickets in the pre-sale

Not 18 till September. Hope it's not full of 14 year olds like the last one.

Tickets for Dundee, Aberdeen and Glasgow go on sale on Friday at 9am. Gonna sell out quick.

But they did secret gigs and a chistmas gis as well.

f**k sake. Only one date annouced in Dundee.

Dundee - Mech Eng Edinburgh - Mech Eng Edinburgh - Mech Eng with Renewable Energy Glasgow - Mech Eng Strathclyde - Mech Eng Will probably be going to Edinburgh. I got 5A's last year which was a massive surprise consider I was predicted all B/C's.Really struggling this year though, failing NABs and everything. Realised at christmas that I should've at the start of the year but there's no point now.

Picked up my fifth unconditional the day.

Good, good. I've decided to go to Edinburgh and will probably go self-catered. Hopefully get a flat with some fellow plonkers.

I'm not familiar with Edinburgh but if it's them steps I'm thinking of then they are a nightmare. 30-35 minutes, jesus. Is all the self catered accommodation outside of Pollock or can you still get it there? I don't fancy the catering, always hated school dinner type spaghetti bolognaise and that but would like to be at Pollock.

Was speaking to a boy in 2nd year at Edinburgh now and he was telling me the best thing about the place is the washing machines phoning your room when the cycle is done. Is this fact or bullshite? Would be a major pulling factor if it was true. Thing about Edinburgh as well, is it not spread out a bit? I think the main campus is a good walk from Waverly Station (don't know where the Engineering campus is though) then the accomodation at Pollock is another good walk. Heard there's good gyms and that though, would be using them and would hope to get into one of the football teams.

Doubt I'll change my mind. Planning to try get an RAF sponsorship to be an engineering officer when I graduate. I'm phucked for where to go though. Doubt it'll be Dundee because I want to move away, kind of exhausted the local student nightlife options here by the time I was in 5th year. Edinburgh would be good but it's full of St Andrew's wannabes. Then I'm not sure about Strathclyde and Glasgow.
