|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

yeah theres no scene round here to speak of outside of the normal dance club thing. despite the fact that i think a lot of people are up for it.. when it comes down to events etc theres a lot of apathy |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Isn't day to day living more important than the odd IDM gig? After all, its only geeks noddin their heads behind computers. Just think of what you'd leave behind; barbies, Sheilas, surfing, beaches, Fosters, koalas and kangers. Personally I wouldn't give a XXXX for the UK. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ill second that. im a surfer-nerd :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
manchesters a lot cheaper than sydney,i think manchester is one of the best nights out youll have..rob and sean have only played here once in melbourne |
||||||||
|

Don't slag of britain, jonesy. If you don't like it so much why don't you go and live in russia, you pinko leftie scum? Britain's great. I'm proud to be british. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hahaha i love how you throw around the words 'leftie scum' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Why are you proud to be British? And I would move to Russian only its not socialist either. That argument became even more redundant by 1989 mate. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats it im not,but oz is a awesome place,its just i had a better life in uk,so now im thinkin about it a lot |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
right with ya. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm proud to be british because i was born here mate. That's why. You should think about that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
believe it or not im very proud to be aussie,just missin homelife...uk |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm proud to not be British, as I hail from the independent paradise known as Wales |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
been to some fine rallys around that neck of the woods |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
OK, I'm thinking about it but I still can't quite figure it out. You are proud because you were born in Britain rather than say, Africa or Thailand. In essence you are proud because by chance and circumstance your parents remained in the UK when they made you and birthed you. That is not actually an achievement; its just something that happened. How can you be proud of something that happened? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
im proud of my birthright,it not unusual.really,and oz is really an awesome place,its just i think my heart is still in manchester..and as for idm,i seen it born,rob and sean are best mates,amd ive supported them from day one...................so to break it down one last time,ive lived in oz,ive lived in uk..i think uk worked better for me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and i was born in oz. |
||||||||
|
|

sorry last post was general |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Wot, think about blind unquestioning loyalty? Only to Liverpool FC for me, and from some on here to Ae, LOL...for my own part, I'm English, and hate the word British for all I'm worth...only worthwhile thing we did to make up for colonising the world was a little campaign in the early forties... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Maybe you could ask Sean and Rob why they don't make beautiful music any more? :-( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hanal - perhaps you can help me with something that has always bothered me.. Why are Mancunians so interested in street fighting / random violence? Admittedly it is a problem in many towns in UK but Manchester always seemed paticularly lairy. Why? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"so to break it down one last time,ive lived in oz,ive lived in uk..i think uk worked better for me." So bloody well get your ticket to Manchester then! |
||||||||
|
|

I like the UK. Not sayin its better than anywhere else, but it's my home and I like it. *tears* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, I like it too. I think the climate and scenery are really good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

manchester is a really good place to be at the moment. but you should consdier whether you'd be happy back here. sometimes i wish i was elsewhere but i think that all i know is here in this country and what i've got herre makes me happy. do what makes you happy. not always easy to do but ultimately the best option. |
||||||||

hanal ... you´re mainly missing the IDM scene plus its expensive? i think you should look at 1) the local idm scene 2) your´re own financial situation i.e. really examine the local scene and how you perceive it first before deciding on any huge moves. Be prudent mate and really have an open mind. i bet you´ll discover great IDM nights out and a fucking class lifestyle with less expenditure. I HAD to do that here with this crappy job i have and i love it |

theres quite a few cheap electronica nights on in manchester now, not a huge amount but things are moving on since pellicanneck got a good hold on the market over here, theres also a lot happening in birmingham which isn't too far away. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'll quote you on that next January! |

Amusingly, literally ten minutes after I posted that it started thundering. It still is. I love our unpredictable weather. Ha ha since starting this post it has stopped thundering and is now raining. See what I mean? Keys: Re: living cheaply. I know what you mean, for the last two weeks I've been dead skint (literally had less cash than if I was signing on) and it's not so bad. Now I've been paid I'm going to try to continue like that and not spend so much. |

England = shit and the english are overly fat and ugly :( I'm going home to Paris or maybe Greece. End of story |

Move to Swansea cause all the birds are sluts |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|

But seriously... IDM's a load of bullshit anyway. |
||||||||
|
|

Music on itself is not enough reason to move, I think. If you miss your mates and all that, we're talking about diferent things. You should consider every aspect of live, and if you come to the conclusion that moving to the UK is the thing to do, go ahead then. |

yeah but you live in Norwich... ;) |
