I tape them all off Top of the Pops

I recently offered to lend someone some CDs, which on reflection it turns out I don't have. (I have the relevant tracks, but they're on tape - which is doable, but rather more of a pain.)

So. Is there anyone who's sufficiently local to me to make borrowing viable who can offer to lend me a CD which has on it either:

Rosetta Stone - Adrenaline
Baxendale - Music For Girls

I suspect one of those is a rather longer shot than the other :)

Pint or something similar to any loaner.

I'm pretty sure I can lend you Adrenaline if no-one else comes up with the goods. I'll forget to have a look when I get home tonight (I'm just being realistic).

Thanks, I'll forget to ask you about it tomorrow. Unless you're likely to be in Oxford at the weekend, though, I'm not sure whether I'm likely to be able to get it off you. I might be slightly in London on Saturday, but it'll be bound to be the wrong bit of London (I have no idea which bit you're in.)

Said CDs are required for a party on the 17th, so there is a bit of a time limit.

Heh. Phone or text me tonight and remind me if you want. There's an outside chance I can provide both. [livejournal.com profile] leathellin can give you my number... I'm pretty sure you have hers. In fact, it's possible she can act as a go between if she's going to be in London and needing a place to kip during the week.

Blimey. There's eclectic.

Thanks :)

You may now forget with a clear conscience :) An mp3 of Baxendale is apparently good enough, and someone in Oxford has got the wherewithal to provice the Rosetta Stone.

Cheers.

If this is Fluffy Mark and Catt's party, I should be there, so it would be a good time to hand on thc's prize for the photo competition as that way you skip a person in the chain.

Am bringing a couple of Tanzwut Cds (German stompy industrial bagpipe music) to lend Catt, though I think Morph will be interested in one of them.

Yeuch, lager is mostly horrible, I wouldn't wish it on anyone :)

Be nice to actually meet you for once!

[identity profile] erming.livejournal.com 2004-07-08 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
Yup I wouldn't wish lager on people either...

But yup would be good to meet you properly. I am going to the Globe at the end of the month with Catt (I seem to remember that you were planning on going).

cool, will see you there.

I went to see Much ado about nothing previously and well it was not bad, but probably a bit too Shakespearian for me in the first half. The scond half was great,

[identity profile] venta.livejournal.com 2004-07-08 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
Yup, I am. My annual dose of culture, y'know.

Apologies for all the posting/deleting, I'm not doing a good job of proofing before I post today.

(Or anyday, certain seditious sources might suggest.)

It's not, it's a different party on the same day :) I'm hoping to make it down to Leytonstone, though, so will pass on prizes and so on.

On which note, can you tell me if THC is teetotal or anything crazy like that ? (Prize for the previous competition was going to be a bottle of champagne, except it was won by a pesky non-drinker.)

Downloading the mp3 not an option?

[identity profile] venta.livejournal.com 2004-07-08 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
It's an option (same as mp3ing the tape is), it's just not a preferred option for sound-quality reasons.

Getting hold of a CD isn't drastic, just one of those I-thought-I'd-ask sort of things.

Kazaa isn't reporting either.

I already have a Baxendale mp3, if you're only after mp3s of the tracks ? I thought from something Suzanne had said that she wanted CD copies.

[identity profile] verlaine.livejournal.com 2004-07-08 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
I have Music For Girls but I fear insufficient locality.

I've got a CD of Adrenaline hanging around somewhere- you're welcome to grab it if no-one easier to grab it off is forthcoming. Seeing as I've used it a grand total of once in about the last 3 years and that was to rip it to my mp3 player I don't think I'll miss it ;)

[identity profile] venta.livejournal.com 2004-07-08 06:09 am (UTC)(link)
Aha. Thank you. I may badger you at the weekend some time.

Mmmm.... badgers.

Gah, I thought I'd supressed that particular animation. No, it's with me to stay it seems.....

Hooray! Someone else who remembers the words to c30, c60, c90!
