Is anyone actually going to come? Halloween, Barbelites... Could be cool...

I would love to be there but unfortunately I have a prior engagement with Morrissey on Gauda Secunda... I insist that everyone who can make it goes, though, because it's such a cool idea and the "Barbelith Claims This" banner is excellent.

I'd like to come - where/when?

Mr I> Check the banner at the top of the main Underground page. All the details are there.

Love to come, but can't.

Ack. I wanna go see this film with barbelites - feels right somehow, but have a leaving party to go to on thursday which I'll feel like scum if I don't attend...

12:59 / 28.10.02
Abandon them! Barbelith calls you! How can we be a legitimate cult if we don't have occasional weird events to congregate at?!
 
 
Bear
13:03 / 28.10.02
I'll come along, paying payday and all I feel flush. Has anyone booked then?

But as its Halloween I have to perform a ritual at 20:13 so if nobody minds me bringing along a rat?

I think you should all go... apart from being 150 miles away I've seen it already but if I was there I'd go and see it again because it is a wonderful wonderful brilliant magnificent film and I'm still not quite sure what happened. Usually I get bored but there was nothing boring about it and it actually made me lean forward in my seat continuously and I don't think I've ever done that with an American film before.
Go and spread the word.
 
 
Ariadne
13:10 / 28.10.02
Thursdays don't work well for me - but I can do drinks afterwards, I think. So long as Bear keeps his rat to himself.
 
 
jUne, a sunshiny month
13:37 / 28.10.02
just re-watched it in France : it's available through location for a good month or so, and it's already been my 5th time ! iiicckkk ! am i addicted or what ?
all of you, go there, and after the movie, have a drink for me while all together. please.

If wishes were fishes
I'd swim across the sea...

Next line, please. Because the next best thing to being there is sending regrets written as collaborative doggerel verse.

Yes, the whole "thousands of miles and oceans between" thing is a bit of an impediment. Would love to, but, you know...same old, same old.

If this were creation
I'd join in this rhyme, you'd see..

Sorry, I'd love to put some bodies in suits but it's not meant to be.
 
 
Regrettable Juvenilia
15:53 / 28.10.02
Um... Other, non-Lithy people are pressuring me to go see it on Sunday. If I was a rich man, fa dee da dee da dee da dee da dee da, I'd do both, 'cos this film rocks so much it's untrue, but I'm going to have to choose.

If I do have to go with Sunday, then Lyra feel free to join me then (possibly in Islington?).
 
 
Tom Coates
20:58 / 28.10.02
No! No! You must all come on Thursday! Otherwise it's just going to be me and Cal! That's no good! I have to say thank you to everyone!
 
 
The Return Of Rothkoid
21:52 / 28.10.02
Well, I can't come unless someone invents teleportation, or can funnel the money from that "pay my bills" internet chick into my account.

Or something like that.

Bah.
 
 
Linus Dunce
22:34 / 28.10.02
Er, don't know what the camera fund was, but if a good film and a drink are involved ...
 
 
Wrecks City-Zen
22:46 / 28.10.02
Hey Tom,

Hats off. What a great idea... you should be applauded...

(claps like a gleeful child...)

We should see how difficult it would be to set up some North American dates.

If this one goes well.

CHEERS!
 
 
The Strobe
23:23 / 28.10.02
Well, I'm sorry I can't come then (work and all etc)... so do enjoy. I went to see it tonight. Marvellous - just haven't worked out why yet... oh, and I love the website...
 
 
STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

I'm well up for it (saw it this afternoon, and am filled with an urge to see it again)- BUT my flatmate just asked me if I'd drive her down to Weymouth on Thursday...

Movie is London sounds better, though. Just depends on what excuses I can come up with...
 
 
Tom Coates
06:35 / 29.10.02
More importantly - has anyone got any idea where we should go for a drink afterwards?
 
 
bio k9
07:57 / 29.10.02
To a bar.

08:00 / 29.10.02
Bridge and Tunnel!

Of course it's actually miles away from the movie, but would be terribly convenient for me...

..It really sounds cool
But a friend from art school
Has a show on that night
And I have an invite
It's at the Royal College you know
That's where I wanted to go
But they put me on the reserve list
So I'll hide my bitterness while I get pissed
On loads of free wine
... Maybe next time?
 
 
angel
08:44 / 29.10.02
Arrrrgh! Sorry Tom, would love to see this but I have to work that night!

Have a good time though!
 
 
Tom Coates
11:58 / 29.10.02
So is ANYONE actually coming?
 
 
Eloi Tsabaoth
11:59 / 29.10.02
I can't make it, as I have to be the devil that night. Buggerit.

12:25 / 29.10.02
I am truely sory I can't be there Tom, because I'm young and poor (that's not why I'm sorry, that's why I'm nto there). I would, however, be there if I could. So I could stand on yr toe to amke you let me be a moderator, and so I could belatedly add to the camera fund, as I forgot to when I was up for SFD's thing...

May the film rock ass! And if someone wants to, like... nick a hellicopter and take me away from 28 Days Later so I can see this instead, I'm game.
 
 
Sax
12:31 / 29.10.02
You know I'd love to come Tom but unless Ariadne can get herself out of London on Thursday my bail conditions preclude me from being within 150 miles of the capital, I'm afraid.
 
 
No star here laces
14:56 / 29.10.02
Tom - could you do sunday instead? Maybe we could all go for a bite beforehand and suchlike then...
 
 
sleazenation
15:13 / 29.10.02
looking into the logistics of thursday - should be doable depending on tickets...
 
 
adamswish
19:34 / 29.10.02
would love to.

actually in London on Thursday for an interview in the afternoon. Only problem is getting back up to the sticks (well West Midlands anyway) afterwards.

Am open to offers of sofas for the night (will be in suit so can't have floors).

If not, have fun you all.
 
 
STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK
06:56 / 30.10.02
Bah! Managed to cancel driving to Weymouth, but forgot it was Halloween, and have promised my flatmate we'd do some cool Halloween stuff.

However, I will try to convince her that going to see this movie will be the coolest Halloween stuff ever.
 
 
that
09:48 / 30.10.02
Would love to come, too, but also can't...
