Packing for IBIZAAAAAAAAA - and generally saving my marbles and staying out of trouble 
Well after last weekends shenanigans where I had partied Friday Saturday and Sunday night with very little sleep all weekend I thought I may have a quiet one!!
I am def staying in Friday as I am doing a car boot on Sat morning to get rid of all my unwanted goods before house move next weekend (very excited) then some of my mates are playing in a charity football game so gonna go and have a look at that. At this point I should really go home however one of the girls we are going to Ibiza is having her 21st birthday party so not sure If I can stay in! It depends if I can rope the boy I have been seeing to stay in with me, although we are such a bad influence on each other we will prob stay in and then get tempted into a party early doors.
If I do be good and stay in IKEA and packing sunday

Friday - having a 'do' for an ex work colleague who moved to Hong Kong but is briefly back
Saturday - Glasgow Stag & Dagger 'festival' - basically, lots of bands playing in various venues across the city. Warpaint, Clinic, Yuck, James Yorkston and Dels are about as famous as the artists get, and sadly it's timed so the best stuff is on at the same time.
As long as I see Warpaint, I'll be happy. I'm ruling out clubbing now - too expensive to stay over, plus I'd have to make sure I pace myself during the day.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh EXCITING
JEALOUS after a few days living as a virtual hermit, am back on the razz this weekend
tonight - lord sabre himself andrew weatherall is dropping tunes at The Drop, stoke newington. £4. would be rude not to.
fri - work drinks in southwark + lowlife djs at grammaphone commercial st, closing down party - v.sad to lose that place to property developers <insert rude word>
sat - heading to a party on mare street called magik - there is annoyingly at the same time also a quality party called 'the idiots are winning' at life on the clerkenwell rd/old st junction with luke solomon and chris duckenfield. Am sadly not the roadrunner (or Fusion) so one will have to suffice.
sun - I don't know. I've started writing a blog even though am not remotely inspired right now. CV needs to be sorted out too, something I am totally dreading but which can't be put off any longer

He's amazing, but seen him 3 times already (and he's up against Warpaint, who I haven't). The last time was when he played random stuff for 3 hours or so (with break) to a room of about 30 people in my town.
We came back early from the break and he asked if anyone wanted him to play anything so I requested his cover of 'Song to the Siren'. It was utterly amazing to hear him do that.

Tonight - Art exhibit opening followed by a fashion designer friend's birthday party in the nightclub Soho Rooms and possibly a quick stop at club Rai for their promoter's birthday party.
Friday - Rock & Roll boat party until 1am and then t.b.d. Hoping to make it to Krysha Mira for afterparty with Tiefschwarz and DJ T.
Saturday - Might go for a bike ride if weather is nice. Hope to check out at least one of 2 new clubs (Colors, Discodome), swing by the opening of new cocktail bar Gorki, and make it to Gagar Inn for DJ Thomas Schumacher.
Edit: Might go see Two Door Cinema Club concert in early evening.
Sunday - Watch football, attend a dinner at some new rooftop restaurant.

Is/was it still owned/leased by the guy (Bernie) who had/has the Rhythm Factory?
dunno who the personnel are. I got it slightly wrong - the flats are already up and typically some yuppies have moved in and started kicking off about the noise. That old chestnut. What do you expect if you're going to move into a flat next to a club, you doughnuts!

the website says:
It is with great regret that we announce the closure and final party at Gramaphone on Saturday 21st May.
Our closure is due to the fact that the council allowed luxury flats to be developed next door to our venue and then subsequent complaints from the residents of these new flats caused the council to take away our late night license for club events.
Unforunately the Gramaphone cannot be financially sustained without these events and has had to close.

Friday: While my original plan was OTR in Sheffield, it seems that idea has now gone out the window, which I'm gutted about. (Everyone else dropped out, and I hate going out by myself). So probably just say in
Saturday: Work from home
Sunday: Work from home.
This should bolster my funds yet again for Ibiza.
