back. whee. good night. hair stayed mostly in although the big hairbandy thing kept migrating upwards. pins? danced lots. so very hot.

but not very many people out again :(. tsk. tomorrow is psychocandy, and also i plan to possibly make a test batch of scones

(remember: Saturday 20th: TEA. SCONES. DOCTOR WHO. LORDI. COCKTAILS ETC. DARKSCAPE. possibly in that order. what more does one want from a day? come 3-3.30ish to watch scones being made for FOUR O'CLOCK EXACTLY. bring things to spread on the scones, or teas. or whatever you like really.).



so: consensus about poll is: bad idea!

No, no and thrice no. You'll end up looking like one of the Frog brothers in the Lost Boys...

[thatmakesmemad.livejournal.com]

follow the example of other pollsters with additional options such as "cybers are all muppets anyways" or "i don't care as long as I look better than all of you" etc etc :D

[annie-lyne.livejournal.com]

"cyber"?

[thatmakesmemad.livejournal.com]

cybergoths which is someones idea of a marketing tactic since the clothing and music style have little in common since cyber leans towards neo futurist look or just plain day glo outfits pilfered to some extent from the dance scene and the music is a mixture of the dance scene and a progression from the 80s electro crowd. Not a pseudo vampire amongst the lot of them (exluding perhaps former pseudo vampires with a tendency to be fickle in their tastes).

Yeah. Oh well. :p

[annie-lyne.livejournal.com]

I think I get it... maybe...

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

or for a less cynical viewpoint see the wikipedia article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyber_(subculture))

[thatmakesmemad.livejournal.com]

if in doubt try wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cybergoth
which is a fair description though you'll get a load of nitpicking arguments from some folks

[ikklebabyj.livejournal.com]

Just no!!!!!!! :s


/only my opinion but to be sure I'd have to see them on.

[elfbiter.livejournal.com]

Do you intend to watch Eurovision as well or is the "Lordi" the same I'm thinking about?

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

i have no intent of watching eurovision apart from when Lordi are on. this will depend how people feel.

Prescription goggles...

[spindr.livejournal.com]

Cyber or not? You decide:

Re: Prescription goggles...

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

hehe. they don't quite look like that!

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

oh well. looks like i'd better try harder with contacts then ;)

Re: Prescription goggles...

[spindr.livejournal.com]

In my head they do.

[secretlondon.livejournal.com]

Looks like I missed the poll - from the comments I'm guessing it was cyber-goth related ;)

Mustn't forget the tea party - I'll need crash space - and dress code for darkscape? As goffic as it sounds?

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

well, it won't have a dress code per se as its downstairs at ret. so there will be people wandering around in blue jeans and band shirts. but yes. flyer here (http://pics.livejournal.com/riak/pic/0000ehy4/g10)

[lilgreendave.livejournal.com]

Heh, I know the lad in that photo :D

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

megashrike i assume. ;)

[lilgreendave.livejournal.com]

Aye aye... That pic was taken at T's old house, and I now own that top (though however it's worn you wind up looking camp as hell :D)

[lilgreendave.livejournal.com]

Y'know, even without the pseudo vamps, cyber definitely has it's goth roots; eighties influenced music, silly fashions, assimilating music genres but having no definite one of it's own, signal to noise with scene-bands being rather low, etc, etc ;)

[secretlondon.livejournal.com]

Ooh till five am - any idea of entry cost? *counts beans*

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

four or five of your earth pounds, depending on whether we get there before 11.

[landvaettir.livejournal.com]

Tea bags or tea leaves?

[abigailb.livejournal.com]

bags probably best as i only have 1 teapot.
