    Anyone going to Turn on New Year's eve? Or going to see them supporting the Frames even? I got my ticket the other day and I can't wait!! Looking forward to seeing Fair Verona again too.
    Oooh...the excitement is just too much!
    Roll on Dec. 31st....

    Fair Verona are supporting Turn? Interesting...

    I'm going to the Frames gig so won't be attending. Haven't seen Turn before* so not really knowing what to expect. Looking forward to Mark Geary though.

    Hehe this is going to be one hell of a night!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88 ✭✭TeenStar


    Can't wait for this! - wish i had rounded up a few more people to come along but that's laziness for you! Also saw this on Turn site:

    Support for New Years in Whelan's is Fair Verona, an all girl band from Tipp who say they are gonna play the gig in bikinis, and Red Twelve.


    :eek: :eek: :eek:

    hahaha so there ya go boys!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 223 ✭✭luce


    They didn't say they were going to play in bikinis! Chris D said it messing! It's mad how facts change...

    Chris D said it too, seemed quite interested in the idea for some reason:D
    But it was Ollie or Terry that posted it on the Turn site first.
    ....whether or not it happens ......now thats a different story:D

    they played Another Year Over for midnight, and released lotsa balloons from the balcony. Was a really cool gig, am so bruised from being front row centre tho!:D
    Whats the weird obsession here with calling ollie cole gay??:dunno:

    I can empathise with you on that one :)

    Soooo painful but soooo worth it!

    Were you the girl on my left who spent half the gig having to lie across the front of the stage 'cos of the pushing?! 'Cos that's what I did!

    Thought Fair Verona were excellent, as per usual. Will definitely be going to the Hub on Jan. 10th.

    As for Turn.....they rocked like mfs! (as only Turn can do :D ).

    xxx me


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 223 ✭✭luce


    Ooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! I'm in so much pain from being up the front too! Nobody ever thinks of the little people! When Ollie asked everyone to go easy on us, they pushed even harder!
    Oh well, it was a sacrafice I was willing to make to stand so close :D
    Fair Verona were fantastic. As I keep saying...they're not just pretty faces :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,483 ✭✭✭Töpher


    Damn fine gig! :D
    Wish I'd had more change tho, didn't have enough loose cash (without breaking a large note) to put hoodie and jacket into cloakroom, ugh, soooooo blóódy roasting! :D At least my face matched my top then! Both bright fricking purple I'm sure! :)

    Great gig tho, was nay pushed on Fair Verona tho. A bit too bland/predictable for my liking. (Not that thats a valid argument when I like Turn! :ninja: )

    yeah that was me with the short hair, was so much easier to just lie across the coats on the stage than push back!
    On my left was Lucy(i think!), we spent most of the time picking up the damn amp that we kept knocking over....lotsa extra work for Terry there, sorry!:)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,059 ✭✭✭memaeve


    Yea, t'was madness!

    I think Kimmy was on your left. I just met her for the first time last night, she was over from London. Unless there's another Lucy, but the Lucy I know was on my right.

    Poor Terry!

    Oh yeah I saw you! I was actually on Maeve's other side though, not yours :D It's all very confusing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 249 ✭✭mydarkstar


    ah now i have it sorted- was definitely Kimmy o my left cos i was talking to her and she said she was from London. She's probably in pain this morning too, she was the one helping me pull that damn monitor back into place all the time- not an easy task!

    Sure, I can sleep easy now i've got that one straightened out:p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 223 ✭✭luce


    So it went:

    to clarify- i said 'incredibley pretty- b.itch', not incredibley pretty bit.ch (ie i do not mean that she is a bitc.h, i mean that she's too pretty dammit, it's not fair!
    she's such a lovely lovely girl, i've talked to her at gigs before..
    turn were deadly supporting the frames aréir too... the qwhole darkness thing, my friend had never seen them before&now he won't give me any of my stuff back.. so i'm turnless at the moment..

    oh, to complete my clarifying, &to defend myself, i was merely trying to put them in mind of your girlfriend when they were planning on gayly deflowering you for newyear's... some'd thank me, but NOOOO
    sniff


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 223 ✭✭luce


    Hey Ollie, how are you? Thanks for a great gig. I got very squashed though!

    Yes I have to say I don't think Butterfly was being bitchy.
    Every Turn fan knows very well that Ollie's girlfriend is lovely.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 223 ✭✭luce


    P.S. This message board isn't at all slow for me :confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4 Olliec


    No problem butterfly. I know what ye meant.

    XO

    And acquiescefc

    I am just getting ready to go to eastren Europe on a small tour. It's gonna be great going to to some great places we have never been before and with our good mates Bellx 1.
    After that back to work. Gonna record a new album and a side project thingy also. Gonna do as much music as i can this year. I don't get to do enough music so i think i need to do some side projects to keep me busy. That can be my new year resolution.

    That and maybe become gay.

    Hehe, nice one :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 275 ✭✭butterfly


    this eastern europe tour intrigues me, and fills me with ideas. i thihk that instead of this eastern europe tour, come live with me! we're very nice, really.
    ok, now stop me if i'm wrong:
    *you're goin where you've never been before, see new things, meet new people (you don't know me, or any of the poeple i live with- new experiences aplenty)
    *you'll look forward to sleeping in the back of a van, if you're lucky (you are free to use the 'driveway'..- or 'porch' as it's known to friends)
    *you'll try new foods (we had ketchup on toast 4days in a row last week. and last week was Christmas)
    *you'll regail the natives at night with music the likes of which they've never heard before (because that basta.rd atole my CDs, as i've mentioned)

    SEE, and all this &more for a fraction of the cost of eastern european prices- those former soviets, always squeezing til the very last drop..

    man, i typed a lot....

    Thats one helluva resolution, side project sounds interesting. Noticed you singin with Andy I think after the gig, is that the side project?

    But seriously, enjoy the east, itll be a bit chilly tho. Hope you get some quality song producin time around Boll X1 gigs.

    And dont do the gay thing, (have mental image of Ollie turning into Hayley from corrie)

    Ciao for now.

    I have to say, I preferred your old turn site and message board (no offence) teh new one is a bit fidgety!

    Probably the best supporting performance I've seen at the Olympia (bought the ticket before the Whelans gig was announced, or at least, I saw it announced) and definitely the best version of the darkness song I've seen or heard.

    One question, copies of Antisocial are impossible to find in Dublin. I have one, but a few friends want it and I'm loathe to burn it if they can get a copy themselves (for Irish music anyway). Will it be re-issued at all do you think?

    The message board is fine.... the news page, now there is a problem... 700k to load.

    i seem to recall people before asking on their site about that, and it was pretty much burn away with anything from the Infectious days...

    Yeah the old message board was easier to use for sure. I don't like the catergories.
    Will do up the site this year and hopefully fix the message board thing.

    Yeah i think we are gonna re issue "antisocial" this year with "check my ears" also.

    Just don't tell our old record company.
