NINJAS - Subloaded 8th birthday - Bristol 29/09

[gwa]

this sounded wicked.. maybe next time, hey!

[ch3]

I've known some of you for a fairly long time now - you know I love you to bits! Special mention to my over 30 yo crew, we still fucking rock it

You can't be over 30, none of you can be.......?

Time flieees! Lol at Magma "accidentally" having me IDed at the entrance. Bouncer just looked baffled at me: "But he said you were..." Oh ffs, Si, I'm not even sure what did you say, but in the end Zena's trick with a bank card seemed to have convince him and let me through.

Speaking of Zena, I knew that she would eventually become a veggie - even if, as she said, it's just to eat more vegetables

my veggies!

Hah, one more memory of Kochari sitting in the window, looking like he's having a total bliss, then asking Si: "Can I have a toke from that spliff if I tell you a story...?"

[Johnlenham]

"Its not a very good story though."

"Oh."

[dubfordessert]

hahahaha

there was a guy leaning facing the speaker stack having a chat with it for a good 40 minutes iirc

[dubfordessert]

"I cant find my last spliff! nooooooooooo"
5 mins later
"Oh my god! I found it!!!! amazzzzing!"
"Look I found £5 aswell! get in! £5 right in ma pocket!"
Luke:"Legal tender, found in your pocket? how crazy."


Ch3 you looked beyond happy at points! keep thinking about the day/sub/after party to get me through work today.

i'm still remembering some of these conversations now. dan's super deep conversation with the other guy at the windowsill (sorry don't know who you are) that culminated in "I LOOK LIKE JAMES BOND" was a pretty great moment

i don't know if i met kochari though? who were you?

[Johnlenham]

The guy on the window was kochari!
AHA! yes! total silence fell just as he said it aswell.

the other guy at the windowsill

[teamhobson]

No fucking idea what you lot are on about. I remember Dom giving me some SOUND life advice or something but i have no idea what it was... I thought you were some sort of prophet sent to sort me the fuck out.

I also remember having numerous really good conversations with folk, then half way through my spiel, staring blankly at the recipient of my shite chat and having to ask 'what were we talking about?' Again, sorry folks, mentally i was somewhere else...

[herbs]

wish I'd gone

[particle-jim]

wish I'd gone

same, i didn't go so that i'd be fighting fit to play a gig last night, was a poor choice, the gig was fucking terrible, wish i'd gone subloaded

[herbs]

not seen any ninjas in ages :/

[Kochari]

I remember Dom giving me some SOUND life advice or something but i have no idea what it was... I thought you were some sort of prophet sent to sort me the fuck out.

Yeah the combination of tea, blanket and transcendant psychedelic spiritual experiences made me think so too...Till I woke up jammed under a table having lost all my hash, my jacket and a significant portion of my serotonin levels

[particle-jim]

not seen any ninjas in ages :/

last time I saw u was dmz 6th bday weren't it? Been flippin ages

[herbs]

yeah I think so. I've been hibernating.

I'm totally reading everything you post with your voice and accent now.

At one point you came over to me and Tom, started talking about god knows what, then cut yourself off mouthing "what the fuck am I even talking about"
You then turned around and outloud asked if it was a good idea to put all the joint stubs into one rizzla to "get all the stuff out the roachs"

Also nearly setting yourself on fire with a well made cig and taking a HUGE mouth full of scalding hot tea and screaming like a girl
The beer sip /tea sip/ beer sip seemed to work out ok though!

I remember too much from the ngiht! though I have no doubt Ill be caught in such a state and have people laugh at me instead soon enough

[welts]

Guys - Huge thanks to having me along and making me welcome.(Luke... The other one) Especially Kay for putting me up and supplying me with copious amounts of tea. Sorry for heading off early and not helping with the clean up.

I cant remember much of the after party as I zonked out once my ass hit the bean bags, but i know it had good music. Was really cool to hang out and talk shit with everyone. Lots of names to match with tags so any stories will remain a mystery to me.

Sick music , sick headbutts and sick hang outs.

Hope to see you all again sometime!

[wolf89]

^^So were you the guy asleep on the floor the whole time. Haha

Really sick night anyway. Good to see everyone again and meet a few new people too.

Cheers to Kay for putting up with having everyone round making a mess at his house and thanks to wubstep for letting me crash at his place till I went home.

[pete_bubonic]

That was a a lot of fun. My days it was hot in there though.

Was good to finally meet you man, I was a bit all over the fucking shop haha. Yeah seriously hot in there that's the most I've ever sweated in a club

I was pretty drunk when i saw you, so I might have been a bit:

'I RECOGNISE YOU! I HAVE SEEN YOUR FACE ON THE INTERNET AND NOW IN REAL LIFE.'

Apologies. I had an absolute stormer at this, really a stand out night for me this year.

I've just read through the last two pages and have reached uncontrollable giggles.

Too many funny moments.

Time flieees! Lol at Magma "accidentally" having me IDed at the entrance. Bouncer just looked baffled at me: "But he said you were..." Oh ffs, Si, I'm not even sure what did you say, but in the end Zena's trick with a bank card seemed to have convince him and let me through.

Yeah, err, sorry about that. I think I thought he wasn't letting you in because you didn't have any, so I just started saying numbers in a sort of panic, then realised I was making the situation much worse and ran off.

But YES on the over 30s crew... glad to be on board. I think we were still looking pretty human when we got back to Paddington. High as fucking kites, but human nonetheless. That train journey just disappeared.. probably a good thing Zena fell/pretended to be asleep; I'm fairly sure we were talking utter bollocks. All I remember is playing with a piece of ribbon. Ribbon doesn't even entertain children. I'd fallen to the level of babies and cats.

Hah, one more memory of Kochari sitting in the window, looking like he's having a total bliss, then asking Si: "Can I have a toke from that spliff if I tell you a story...?"

Maaaaan, Kochari and his friend (was that Cosmic Dave?) floated in like two shamen there to see that everyone was going to make it back to the planet safely. At utter peace with this eerie certainty about being at peace too... I just wanted to shake one of them and say "TEACH ME!".

It was a pretty shit story though.

Luke - Happy MOTHERFUCKING Birthday, homenugget. Love you man. Train journey was jokes, beers with my brothers and the shit bands was a nice way of finding a midpoint between two vibes seeing as they'd only just got out... really glad you came along! Looking forward to deconstructing it all properly in Brixton tomorrow night. CHYYEEEAAAH

Riddles was an absolute star all night... genuine sincere "OHMYFUCKINGGODI'MHAVINGAGOODTIME" in his eyes for the whole time. Beautiful! Pleasure to deputise your skinning up at kay's!

And thanks to wubstep for filling in when my brain couldn't handle skinning up...

HobsonHobsonHobsonHobson... amazing. So fucking enterTAINING when you're ruined... I'm not even sure how many spliffs we burned down together in the end that night, but you're a wonderful man.

Great tunes all round in the flat tbh... enjoyed Jo's magical mystery tour through wub's record box. Nice rnb singalong session too. SNH's answer to Sonny and Cher only without all the marriage and domestic violence RIGHT HERE.

If I hear kay say "Badger! Behave! Naughty Badger!" on another night out I might actually soil myself... it's becoming a bit of a 4am catchphrase!

I've no idea why I'm so happy today, but I'm pretty sure it has to do with having one of the best party crews in the known universe. You lot are all legends. It's an honour every time.
