Ed,

Desparately need to talk about The Fall /FUSM proposal for Roadmender in Northampton.

if anyone knows Ed - could you nudge him for me? - tell him i'm waving a fat wad of cash in the air and it needs collecting ;) , ta.

I love posts like this.. It confirms The Fall are as ramshackle in organisation as I always hoped they'd be..

I've played my part in being ramshackle I can assure you. ;) Emails could have been lost due to a computer fuck up - but I'm getting desparate now.

Ed could you email me also. Lets talk US dates and such.

on the way to moscow they could make a stop in France, Holland, Belgium, and Germany as well! ;)

and then come into the united states and entertain us.

Northampton :D that's nearer than last 2 gigs I've been to get it on ;)

I'll go to £1K for a gig at my house...any good Ed? Think of the live album potential....'Live in a back-to-back in Leeds'.

Australia anyone? On a visit to say hello to Conway in NZ???

Did someone say Northampton? No Fall, but this sounds good... quite tempted meself, and it takes a lot these days to get me north of Palmers Green:

"UNDEREDUCATED MUSIC's 2nd BIRTHDAY BASH
live @ The Racehorse, Abbington Sq. Northampton
Saturday 7 August from 4pm. £5 or lower

Wet Dog

The Retro Spankees
"a discordant noise which leaves the ears ringing... confusing, crazy, and a little overwhelming" Drowned In Sound

The Legend (tbc)
from Brighton, "Everett True and Danya making profoundly magical madness from a guitar, a taped piano, an upturned drum and tremulous voices that ache like angels" Careless Talk Costs Lives

Alto 45 (tbc)
from Norwich, "lo-fi pop maestros" or "punk for tired people"

Pete & The Pirates
from Reading, guitars covered with blood, everyone singing at the same time, Velvet-like mayhem

Lesbo Pig
from London. Three girls, guitar and a violin. Annoyingly brilliant.

MJ Hibbett & The Validators
from London via The Midlands, Billy Bragg for a new generation, a rare full band show.

Winston Echo
Quirk pop oddball. Daniel Johnston meets Jilted John

Columbus & Crusoe
"alt-country-tinged, lo fi, polyester-coated, British suburban eccentricity " Drowned in Sound

Clubbing Seals
rocking and meandering and weaving and taking the breath away.

all the profitsare going to local charities, so you can donate money AND get to see some absolutely blinding bands."

I have a nice backyard for the fall to play at here in hilliard ohio.

Anyone heard anything about whether the Middlesborough gig from earlier in the year is going to get re-scheduled at all?

Russia is one of the places I've always wanted to visit. If The Fall embarked on a Russian tour, and I wasn't too busy with my work at the time, then I would probably consider following the tour around Russia.

It would be good to see them in a different country for once. I almost got to see them in LA earlier in the year, except for two small problems: i) My flight left the week before they were due to get there; and, ii) They didn't actually get there...

:rollover: :rollover: :rollover:

where is watts at tohelp us out.

still waiting :banghead:

same here.

Fall fans in wait shock.

has anybody ever put their band on ebay....play to highest bidder + travel costs :beer:

Who needs ebay? I'll start the bidding at 50p.

i'll pay 20 us dollars, what i paid to see them in cincy and cleveland.

OK... 70p?

40 dollars. then.

Re the thread about Roadmender.
The Fall have declined the invitation to play in Northampton(twice before) and as for wads of cash being offered,well that is not the case.
The Fall are very professional and only deal with promoters with a proven track record.

With regards to Russia the same applies.
The correct proceedure in booking The Fall is via The website and not the message board.
Sorry for any confusion caused by the threads.
The Fall are very busy recording new material and will appearing at the gigs listed on the website.

Many thanks

Ed Blaney

The Fall Rule!

good newsw about recording-what are the chances of a southern hemisphere tour-i understand the financial constraints-let us know if there;'s anything we can do

i belive the correct expression is "the fall rock" (FALLCHASE circa 2004)

Gobbless their pointed heads!

This is the most uplifitng news I've heard in a while...

I think FALLCHASE deserves a namecheck on the next record or sleevenotes-he is your most enthusiastic fan and it would make his..........life (up to this point).

Everyone in agreement say "aye".

PS-agreeance is NOT a word

Looks like it's time for someone to roll out the "most enthusiatic fan" poll...

:D

Correct procedure indeed! Its called offering WORK for fucks sake! I'd love it if this band were offered this headliner , that live event. Scanned NME for weeks looking for a fall mention in the festivals. No luck. Drove 90 mins on me tod about 4 years ago to see the fall at the leopard doncaster . At this time the band were on their knees. Supported by a band called trigger happy. Shite lead vocalist ranting about 'polce oppression' etc sub clash stuff. is that ed blaney??

Oh dear- i can see where this is heading. Be very careful-wind yer neck in dude ;)
PS-sorry mr Bat-you are also very enthusiastic I can tell.

BTW-apart from the bournemouth runner-anyootherfan been namechecked?

come on cha cha cha! HELP! Anyway, answer the question is that him?

yep it is-i thought you were feigning ignorance. There was a tussle on the board recently with things getting messy with the broker being maligned, so maybe you were unaware.

I think its fair enough to express an opniion about Trigger happy though ;)

aye. why aye man!

agreance sounds like a GWB word.

I believe that Tom Robinson is his leaner years would come round & play a show at your house for 200 quid.
Urban myth?

agreances all round then.
The Fall totally rule, man.

thank you very much for recommending me for the next liner chachacha, I am just a huge fan, and I do usually mention them to my g/f everyday, she is really sick of hearing about them, but its quite funny. , mr. broker sir, would there be a way i could get hooked up with a signed 2g+2?

he knows no bounds...

Sorry thefallbroker,


Silly of me. My appologies, it hever happens again.
