We havent met up for ages folks and there seems to be far more Carduiff posters around these days so howsabout it guys and gals? jangle jangle.

As there seems to be a mass of posters in the Pontcanna area may be we could meet at The Robin Hood,have a few beers ogle Charlotte and then move on somewhere else!

I'll be up for a Christmas meet!
In fact, if there's any urban club nights going on around that time, I'd be delighted to do a DJ slot (if asked!)

Maybe if KBT uis around he could sort a venue,Draig would prob be up for playing too. A Welsh Offline ?

Pontcanna!! Fucking snobs!! :mad: :mad:

And I suppose you'll be meeting up with yer la-di-da chums from Grangetown...

How about a proper 'ardcore meet in Adamsdown, eh? ;)

No, on a serious note, ddraig was too modest to put his own thread up, but he's playing at the Holodeck night on Fri 30th Sept, and has suggested (http://urban75.net/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=3563210&postcount=7) urbanites might like to come along.

Anyone up for a night out in Clwb Ifor?

(And to answer 1927, no we shouldn't have another *failed* meet!)

That would be a great idea,cos I can feel that the next meet is gonna be the bestest yet!!!

If we gonn ahve one before the Big Xmas extravaganza should we have one when PhilDwyer is around? Perhaps he could let us know when he 's in town!

Serious heads on.
Some thoughts for maximum turnour

Definate time not a 4 hour window

Weekend meet.. for those working, or live out of town

Central meeting place...close to bus and train

1927 to drive us all home!

I'm up for a meet in principle anytime.

If we get our heads together we should easily be able to sort out a venue for a little Cardiff disc-spinning, but be warned, unlike in cosmopolitan London it appears that people will have to be forcibly dragged to any night (especially in the week!).

I'm fairly certain i'll be out to see ddraig next saturday (and for a few before of course) and should be alright to come out any other time.

RubberBuc's suggestions are spot on though - sensible time- short meeting window - central location - weekend.

ddraig
22-09-2005, 15:53
:eek: fuk me a meet thread with 12 posts that i ain't spotted, fair do's! :D

up for meeting anytime but as a dole scum may have to sup some soda water if it's the wrong side of giro day.
robin hood is fine as are most places.

think it might be a bit much to ask people to go to a pay meet at a club and it is next week (FRIDAY KBT!!), but if a few are up for it or a drink in dempsey's or somewhere near clwb beforehand then all good.

would be great to put on a night down here for urbs and greater to have ed playing, we can but try and sort something. lets have a 'practice meet' before then see how many we can get.
i don't know many venues that are free and easily available yet, what are people's thougts on the back room of millers tavern?, riverside :eek: not too far out of town and i could lug some kit round there. am sure the landlord would be up for it as i've sounded him out and even we can't do worse than the karaoke night with the sum of two old fogeys in the corner and karaoke man crooning at his bored date (kiss of death anyone)
seen callaghans is going for a 2am licence monday to friday, but they seem to be mostly sorted for gigs afaics.

also definately concurring with RB on central location and as specific a time and location as possible to meet.

so hands up for next friday!
and/or hands up for between oct 11th and 14th as mentioned!

Friday (whoops!) - bang up for a meet up.

Im busy saturday - I've been roped into having a crack at rowing up at Llandaff. It's a bit 'jolly hockey sticks' I know but I fancied geting out on the Taff in a boat.

From the ninjah thread

Ninjah Day
SAT 1 OCT is, apparently, NINJAH DAY! To honour the occasion Boobytrap Records are putting on a parade around Cardiff City Centre, with the great man at the front of a procession which will also feature some of his beloved Cymru Girls and a brass band performing some of his music... The parade will weave to the Capsule garden where there will be an album playback and the Booby bosses will deliver a speech on the pivotal role Ninjah plays in our great capital. To be a part of this auspicious occasion download your invite here and get yourself down to Virgin Megastore on Queen St at 2PM next Saturday...

Well Fri night is ddraig's big night out in Clwb Ifor, so anyone who is up for that could meet before for a pint... the cheapo Weatherspoons right opposite? (Or is that a baaad place on a Fri night?). Else Dempseys, perhaps, although I have to say the standard of their Guinness seems to have proper plummeted since I was last quaffing there in 2004. Anyone else noticed this? (Any recommendations for good Guinness in Cardiff?)

My mate used to be ents manager at Glamorgan for a couple of years - He's left now though so feel free to slag away.

He paid Panjabi MC £2000 to 'DJ' - he turned up, said there was a problem with the decks (there wasn't) and proceded to play his hit single on CD about 3 times before naffing off with the dosh.

Anyway, I digress, All systems go for Friday? Me and my mate are meeting up Saturday instead so I suggest;

8pm in Dempseys


Anyone who wants to can come for a couple beers, then (if they want) knock on to see DJ Bonesatron on the wheels of steel in da clwb.

Well the past 2 years there has been no summer ball.
Several years ago the summer ball was headlined by Robbie williams and held on the playing fields with full funfair etc.( it was the dogs apparently)

When i went 3 years ago we got 'the cheeky girls' and atomic kitten and a couple of dire tribute acts in the CIA.
The following year it was cancelled after they booked some newly emerging chart dance act and a big brother failure ... and 'lots more to be announced'and its never been done again becuase the powers that be don't seem to want to gamble the budget booking someone decent and then still expect people to pay out for tickets.At £35 a pop plus all the ££ to buy a new frock etc you want more than overpriced booze, a bad photographer and some shite entertainment.

I have watched these meet threads with interest over the past months and envied those of you have been able to go. Money is very tight at herman towers and these meets always seem to coincide with a particularly bad financial situation, eg mortgage week or bills week. I think by the next one I ll have the funds to pop along. Maybe by then someone would have suggested Ponty instead of Cardiff as the ideal venue. Ponty is great it has everything- a famous bridge, its the home of the national anthem and beer is cheaper than Cardiff too.

Have a great time at the Cardiff meet and have a pint for me. Did I remember to suggest Ponty? Oh yes! ;)

Not a ponty pub crawl then? The market tavern is a great afternoon boozer. If Ponty is a non starter I may not as well bother suggesting Merthyr, Aberdare or any of the more outwardly valley commando towns.

Nevertheless, next time there is a Cardiff meet I'd like to come along. Though I guess the central Cardiff I remember is largely gone, replaced with plastic winebars and themed pubs. It started to go downhill when they shut the Square Club if you ask me.

Best line is as far as Ponty as this would mean a train every few minutes between Ponty and Cardiff as the Aberdare, Merthyr and Rhondda trains all pass ponty. Which may mean Whetherspoons or Greyhound Ponty (opp station), Probably the Otley in Treforest, Anchor Taffs Well, Not sure whats in Radyr TBH, The Railway llandaf North, then Cathays.

To Start further north would mean say- Conway Aberdare, Queen Vic in Cwmbach, nothing in Fernhill, Cresselli Arms Mountain Ash, Navigation Abercynon then Ponty etc...

Not much on the Merthyr Line. And not too sure about the Rhondda.

Nevertheless, next time there is a Cardiff meet I'd like to come along. Though I guess the central Cardiff I remember is largely gone, replaced with plastic winebars and themed pubs. It started to go downhill when they shut the Square Club if you ask me.

i'm playing again next week! :o
but this time at gretsky's above the ice rink in town at a night called junk which has jungle, techno and breaks along with body painting, raffle, games and chai.
on sat 15th October

anyone fancy it? :)

Glad I went along to this in the end!

I spent the evening in Chapter getting smashed on strong continental lagers, including one that was like drinking the ashes left in the bottom of a bonfire. Just about kept it together enough to have a game of pool in the Foresters, then headed to Callaghans where there was a bizzare old rock and roll band. No band member was under 65 by the looks of it, and there was a buffet!?

Managed to stagger to Gretskis somewhat the worse for ware in time to see ddraig mashing up the place!

Nice one!

It's good to know our brothers and sisters on the Celtic Fringe also have immense hassle organising meetups :D Still I think you lot are *slightly* better off than us as there are a fair few of you around Cardiff/Swansea.

Trying to organise a Scottish meetup is a logistical nightmare cause of the distances involved... when you have people having to make a 100-mile round trip just to meet up it becomes a nightmare.

Good luck :cool: :)
