Engine Shed ,Lincoln, 07.

Love these pictues, especially the bottom one, so good to see Adam almost smiling

I seem to recall much consternation being caused by the number of fingers on Sarah's shoulder.

I know Ben is a BIG lad but..........

...it would of course explain his fabulous skill on the bass !!

....Adam has very little time to smile , as he works very very hard all the time.

He certainly does, NEVER stops. Seth would be lost without him and his gaffa tape.

At the end of SBE Seth rushed off stage at the end and gave him a great big hug - it was wonderful to see :-)

oh bless.

dear little adam.

He'll be there , all excited , with a big box of gaffer tape , waiting for the tour bus.

how can you tell if he is excited?

he smiles.

(0:

a bit like that.

but obviously not with his head at right angles to his shoulders.

my sister doesn't like adam...she calls him mr grumpy...

.....it's because he looks the part but they won't let him on stage.
I think this should be the year , man at the back and he who looks the part should form their own group.

I'll make the tshirts.

do ya think "man at the back and he who should be on stage " is too long a name for a band???

actually I think "man at the back and he who looks the part " sounds better.

you could put it into initials...
matbahwltp...or maybe not...

But what about Cousin Paul!

I am sure he is a frustrated rock star, or pirate, can't quite make my mind up..............

He can't do that he's
"MERCHMAN" ! .
*cue dramatic music.
he needs a tshirt with a big f**k off "M" on the front and long boots .
And a cape.
And some sort of trousers obviously.

Not so bothered about the trousers, maybe satin hot pants?

And a mask, definatley a mask - to increase the sense of mystery......

*suspects jane has a thing about masks and very possibly blindfolds.


We don't know if he has the legs for satin hotpants. we have the evidence to show they would look rather nifty on Seth and Adam .
Will withhold judgement til evidence is produced.
.

*wonders about what this 'evidence' might be*
masks are cool! but would I think a rapier on a belt might beccol or that taking it bit too far???

pictorial evidence is always required.
have you not seen the lovely summer "shorts " pics.

he could have a rapier on a belt
but would need to be careful when moving about on the tourbus. any sudden movement could spell disater in a confined space such as that.

*wonders how satin lederhosen would look ,or would they be satinhosen.
*ponders.

yes, i saw those pictures...
have you seen the video of the summer shorts on youtube??
it could have a special case...and it is very thin so it may be okay on the tourbus...
hee hee, he could go around inscribing 'm' on all the venues he plays at...or s.l if he wanted to promote the tours...
*realises that the thing called 'babbling' is taking place again*

*suspects Merchman would have the pins for satin hot pants becuase he is a surfer

*goes off to check for evidence - and can confirm have a fine pair of legs. And given his long roping skills would make a VERY good superhero.

babbling is good, it's the life force of the blog.

*likes the idea of mysterious "M"s appearing around the country .

I have seen the vid of which you speak. Satin shorts are the way to go.

As long as it's kept in it's little case, it should be safe then.

If paul , or M as he is now known has a costume , it's only fair Adam and Jamie should have one too.
They could have similar outfits to M . but minus the rapiers and with shorter capes, so they don't get caught up in the equipment on the stage .

*awaits evidence of surfy/mountain bloke type legs.

Should I load the evidence here or let the mire share in the madness?

*jiggles
Ooooooooo quick quick here here anyway just be quick.

*yawns and looks at watch..

I'm trying, really.

Yes I know I am....

I have sent them here, how long do they take to appear?

Looks, I managed it

*points

*jiggles



you did you did

I see I see!!!
*jumps up and down in self praise*
did those come off myspace by any chance??

You knicked them???

*looks nevously around for internet police.

I would not say knicked, just presented them to a wider audience..........

that's alright then.

The mire's quiet tonight, maybe because we are on here instead......

quite possibly, but we can't be in two places at once.

tell you what, it's a jolly good job nobody reads this thing sometimes.

I know what you mean, sometimes I think we are talking to ourselves on here.........................................................

we are, didn't you know.

my type/scrolling finger is throbbing after last night.

why don't we just pack up here and wander back to t'mire.
.

....then again, that's like watching paint dry sometimes.

it's the bits in between the tours/promises of webchat's/competition results/announcements of albums
that tend to drag .

I think i go on the mire at the wrong time as theres never anyone around...or they're scared of me!!!

mirelings are scared of nothing, it's Seth that's scared of us ;-)

too true!!!

And I don't know why, after all we are only interested in the music!

of course we're ONLY interested in the music...it's got nothing to do with the fact that we try to steal his t-shirts and drool on him...or remake the lots video...
nothing to do with that...nope nope nope

We only have to do these idle pastimes to fill in the gaps while waiting for album releases and tours.

It keeps us out of trouble.

It's not good to drool on people.
They might get germs.

The blog was invented to keep us out of trouble , they can keep an eye on us here .
I've seen them, sliding the little metal door thingy open.
Always the eyes looking, staring.

Then what was the Mire invented for?

Or is that some forgotten experiment that grew untended in a petri dish?

the mire is for busy times but we wander out here when it all goes quiet ,so relentlarse built this for us to kick about in so we dont go on the rampage .

oh, is that what the little metal door thing is all about...I wonderd why that was there...
and it does stop me rampaging...
very effective system!!

important to prevent affirmative action when they announce the delays in album releases, chaotic web-chat, any other disasters really.................................

...it won't last you know, one day the mire will descend upon the gaily decorated garden shed office that is "relentlarse"
and shout rude things at them , knock on the door and then runaway .

relentlarse??
i'm guessing that you called it that after all the messups they've made?
and whys it a garden shed?

.............because it's how my head works .
It's what happens on here after a little time.

I reckon it would be all they could afford, and I doubt it would be gaily decorated. More like ramshacked and we could not knock on the door because it would be hanging off its hinges.

*realisies jen needs time to go back into the scriptures of the mire for all the answers to all the questions.
*realises that will take far too long and so waits for the next one

(0;

......of course relentlarse aren't based in a shed, they have fabulous offices carved out of pure gold and adored with precious jewels mined on jupitor.

no, the garden shed is the bit they have purely for all things Seth.


(0;

Oooooo look , I just found the "n" from adorned lying over there.
*points

I see it!!
*grins*
but why would seths stuff be in a shed...to make it more folky? or westcountryish?
or am i just ruining a merely random comment?
*goes with the latter*

All comments are random on here .
They need no explanation,
The just "are".

If we stop to explain them all we'd get nowhere and that would never do.

or we would all get seriously confused...
or at least more confused than we are already.

let confusion be our watch word.

maybe our collective name should be a "confusion of mirelings" rather than a "caution of mirelings"?

or 'a confused caution of mirelings'. Then you get both and it describes our general state of mind.

I think that sums it up PERFECTLY ;-)

eh heh.
sorry, couldn't think of anything to say...

*adds pointless comment just to see who's paying attention.

who said that?

Always alert me..............................................................................................................

........of what?

to everything - I hang on babs' EVERY word, and worship her wisdom ;-)

*worries that blog has started to "get to" jane.

isn't that INFINATE wisdom?
or infinite?
*ponders*

*knows blog has definately got to jen.

...is that a bad thing?
*starts to hum to self*
*then starts bopping to humming*

*taps foot in time to humming then starts to harmonise

we should start a mire ochestra.
*continues to hum*

well there are lots of musicians on there.
*hums and picks up shakey egg and taps out a rythym .
*gets kazoo out of case.

many of them were at bds last year with various instruments.

jen, you should get in touch with "our dan" you could record something for the mire charity CD

but i wouldn't want to explode people eardrums!!
a mire charity cd! wow, thats a great idea! which charity is it for?

now there is a question, I think the original idea was possibly CHICKS but no definite decision was reached. I think it was decided to take one step at a time.
I have NO musical ability AT ALL but I do know maymay was nominated as "organiser" :-)

no musical ability? how is that possible? surely you can keep a beat?
and need to know what CHICKS stands for....

Country Holidays for Inner City Kids .

good cause. those city kids really do need to get out into the counrty. I would ahte to be shut up in a city...

nightmare!!

I'd miss the isolation, smell of farmers muck spreading, the vast rolling fields, and having no friends nearby to talk to....
*reminices*
i've been to london and am not particularly fond of it.

but then i loved tokyo.....
i am an odd person...
