Amazing night though no photos sadly. Great to meet Adele and her lad Matt even if he was offensively wrong about Lifeblood. Clubnight was really good though FD lot all left to drink in the park leaving me to dance away with Non FD Irish Claire and her friend Sophie to Motown Junk, ME and ADFL and others which was the best experience ever while a tad drunk.

FD lot, we need another meetup, sorry not to join you in the park but you lot live near me, Claire's miles away.

Props to the organiser who was a really nice bloke, I was the tall young lad in the green jacket, if you need any promotion for the next night let us know.

Yeah, I prefered the park too. I just don't really like Kro Bar, nothing wrong with the night, just the venue for me.

Kro is just too expensive. Can we have it in a cheaper bar next time?!

Looking back, I was a tad tipsy. Major bastard behind the eyes today.

But don't worry, Adele, I won't ruin your reputation by repeating your theories of subtext in Manics songs.

Yeah, I did the classic "thought I was sober but I wasn't" again.

Wasn't there something about The Witches too?

The Witches is an evil film about kiddy fiddling.

Hello All,

Thanks to everyone who came to MOTORCYCLE EMPTINESS and made it such an enjoyable night.

We've raised £104 from the entrance money, as well as whatever money is in the tins

Here's a link to give you an idea of just how valuable that money will be to people https://www.oxfam.org.uk/donate/yourmoney.html

I definetly want to organise another night, probably in June. More help with promotion will definetly be appreciated, especially as next time I
may have to pay to rent some more powerful speakers. I think the ones used for the first half of the night may have to be retired :-( Thanks for
being patient whilst the venue rescued the night too, I think it was worth it in the end :-)

Any feedback on the night is much appreciated and will be taken on board for next time. I may try and get a different venue, KRO was picked because
it was the only place I could get on a weekend. I still think it needs to be on a weekend, but if I try and book somewhere next week hopefully I
could get somewhere with their own decent sound system.

Also I just want to give a mention to the 'Robin Hood Tax' which you may have noticed being promoted during the night. This is a tiny tax on banks that
would raise billions for the people who really need it, and represents values of equality and justice which of course are also echoed by the Manics.

http://robinhoodtax.org/

I'll keep everyone up to date on what's happening for the next night, as well as any other campaigns/news/philosophies which I think will be beneficial
for people.

Best,

Chris.

Not at all, it's just there are obviously so many paedos out there.
