so is everyone excited? personally i´m so excited that i just soiled myself. watling fest, if its anything like metalbrew should be a veritable feast of metallic and non-metallic delights. i am happy to announce that crowning glory will be playing as well as the mighty ahymsa at both watling fest and the birmingham gig on 24th october. attics, i know birmingham´s not anywhere near you but cmooooooooooooon...
also i´m coming back from portugal today so dudes anyone up for some mischief this weekend?
any info on running order at Watling ? very tempted to turn up and see for myself how bad you all are !!! but got to get back for mundane things like work - unless I win lottery before then.
Ed goddammit I swear I'm gonna tattoo our upcoming gigs to your soddin FOREHEAD so every time you look in a mirror (which I know is a lot) you'll remember where the HELL you and your bass are meant to be!!
Attics I dunno about the Watlingfest running order but I'll see what I can find out and then get Graham to post details when he's at work (cos over at Ahymsa Towers we still don't have as much as a phone line, let alone internet access! I'm typing this on my sister's computer - cheers sis!).
Tom, I am EXTREMELY excited about this gig, I'll be sure to stock up on extra underwear for all participants on the day...
You know, tattooing the gigs on my arm might not be a bad idea, that way ill have a permanant record of my fame. They would have to be pretty small in font though. Still, it makes for interesting reading.

Everyone would! My arms and of course my shoulders are one of the wonders of the world. Not only would I myself be informed of the gigs Im playing but anyone who walked past would know aswell, because their eyes would just be drawn to me and my wonderful arms.
Yes, I am God. Im also modest.

take it the real reason for the album delay is finding a studio with wide enough doors to allow Ed to get his arms and shoulders through to lay down those god (self) inspired bass riffs.
just got home after 15 hours out of the house - 10 hours travelling - to witness just 36 mins of Ahymsa and 41 mins of Crowning Glory - yeah and some other bands which were entertaining mainly reasonably good but were not the reason I made the effort - CG were very good - but the main attraction for me was my very 1st glimpse of the makers of one of my fave albums of all time and did they impress - HELL YES THEY DID - Alex is superb, Ed is nearly as good as he thinks he is (unbalanced grass lost out there) Graham is an enthralling singer/ showman /frontman /guitarist who cant help but give a performance even if the turnout is disappointing and then there is Kali
Amadiere 18-04-2005, 04:13 PM *** laydee guitarist in this here band (http://www.ahymsa.co.uk/) Her name is Gemma Caley and she has loadsa lovely hair and a nice arse :D
And...unlike some of the bands ive seen *cough*HIM*cough* they rock...
what can I add to a posting of 16 months ago !! except to say I loved her before I met her and nothing has changed - heres hoping for success to come your way, it will be well deserved.
That was YOU?! Do you know how long I've been trying to find out who posted that?! A mate txted me that link after she was googling people's names for a laugh (don't ask) and found mine - ah, its nice when information finally comes to you (after 16 bloody months!)
See now this is better, less Ed-praise, more me-praise I shall end up complimenting my arms in public if I'm not careful (now who does that remind me of...). Seriously though, don't encourage the bassist, he's like a stray cat, if you make a fuss of him once he'll just keep coming back. Then he'll get into your house and piss on your carpet. This cat/Ed analogy has gone too far.
So basically attics, thank you so much for making the trek to see Ahymsa and Crowning Glory - but where did you go afterwards, we couldn't find you! I think we're up north in Oct/Nov so perhaps see you again but closer to home this time! Thanks for the photos also, there's some really good ones in there and some hilarious hair-related pics too
And on that note I should probably get back to work, these files won't disorganise themselves...
Yeah man, thanks a whole bunch for these pictures. The close up of me is particularly appreciated! That was a nice day.
I had no idea that YOU were Attics dude, I have been trying to figure that out as well, Gemma kept telling me that it was someone I knew from Uni and I kept saying WHO?
Anyway, Peace Dude.

you misread Gemma - I also found the posting thru google and have no idea who amadiere is - so you have more admirers - google was also where I found ref to unbalanced grass - look forward to seeing you all again and of course to hearing the new album
as for the hair that is something impossible to keep out of the pics - tho its nice to see there is a smiling face under there somewhere - as for the close up of Ed wasnt sure whether images of the divine being were allowed here or not but aslong as the cultists dont get hold of it we should be ok
Ed the uni confusion was my daughter was at same uni as you but the veterinary side of it so your paths didnt cross.
Oh goddammit, so I STILL don't know who that is?!?! Argh!!
And Ed I never once told you that attics was someone you knew from uni, I have no idea where you got that from! (...oops just re-read attics' post...) It must be just that his daughter went there, you donut. I dunno attics, what are we gonna do with him? What do people do with (ahem) "gods" when they find out they're EFFIN STUPID?!?!
And yeah, you did say that it was one of my uni aquaintances. Its on the last forum. You even had a go at me for my memory loss on the subject.
But anyway, the question remains, WHO IS ATTICS??? Have we ever met?
Post on this thread with any suggestions, no matter how wild and insane, we must find out who this Attics is. I could ask but that would be too easy, it may be a trap. Better to throw wild accusations around and persecute everyone who is different to us... hang on... sorry, Im quoting Bush.
Moving on...

Ah, playground-level wit. So that's where we are, huh?!
Ed, I would NEVER have said that attics was a uni acquaintance of yours, because he ISN'T! His daughter is/was at Middlesex, that was the link there. Enough of this! And you HAVE met attics, he travelled hundreds of miles to come see us and Crowning Glory at WatlingFest on Sunday. Are you winding me up or what??!!
Since neither of us can be persuaded otherwise this will be stopped. But have I met Attic's daughter? And regretfully I didnt really meet Attics as I was tangled in things, Im sure I said hello and then hit my head on someone, but hey if you travelled all that way to hear us play then WICKED, we need more fans like you!
Dude
