Tonights Evening Times - Absolution double page spread.

[Ghostsuit]

Check out the times out section of the evening times tonight and see if you've had your photo published.

This is pure sellout material! I recognise none of the pure generic, non-rocking cunts in the photos at all and the article gave me that feeling of "wow, I wish mainstream newspapers just wouldn't write about music" feeling I haven't really experienced for a good 5-6 years. It also says the Cathouse is "arguably more popular", which you MUST BE RAGING ABOUT since I'm sure you have statistics to prove otherwise! Ye obviously never paid them enough to do this properly, Forbes.

You never mentioned that you had moved back to Edinburgh.

lol, never paid for it and was surprised myself to see it, when it comes to arguing about who's more popular, let's just say I've very happy with the numbers were getting.
As for the people in the photos good looking bunch of customers and I recognise a damn few faces. I'm actually glad to see that were not being portraided as a bunch of goths any more by the mainstream press.

All in all a decent enough piece.

Aye, now we're being portrayed as hairy-chested, stiff-collared disco fanatics thanks to big "PETER KANE"~! I think that MIGHT actually be a guy who lived around the corner from me when I lived in Mountblow, I'll need to look into that.

I'd rather be portrayed as "a bunch of goths" than as guys who wear cardigans over a shirt and tie like big "AIDEN MURPHY". This guy could be in any club in Glasgow, as could most of the folk in these pictures. I think that's what kinda disappoints me about this article... I always liked to think AltNation and Absolution have their own identity, that the folk going there DON'T look like every other motherfucker in the city - be it by looking like "a bunch of goths" or otherwise. These folk aren't what I'd consider "the face of Absolution", but maybe that's just me.
Still pretty cool that there's two pages in the Evening Times dedicated to the club, though, obviously, so congrats etc. of course!

Other folk in photos: "Gav Stewart", "Donna Cannon", "Kirsty Barrie", "Ian", "Jamie Lee Love", "Aimee Dunsmuir", "Sam McTrusty", "Cat Munro", "Kathryn Main", "Amanda Rennie", "Chan MacArthur", "Martin Walker", "Emily Williamsons", "Gillian Bailley", "Ryan Meloy", "Ross Higgins", "PANDA~!!" (must be a reference to her eye makeup), "Claire Alexander", "Gemma Campbell". If yer buying the paper to see if yer in it, then save yer 40p if yer name isn't on that list.

i just bought it and dinnae recognise anyone. but maybe i'm just being a 'tard.

I recognise a fair few, mainly Iain, Tattooist, Panda working in one of the bars near by I think and Emily who I've seen pretty much every week. It's also interesting to note that a lot of Barry's heavier requests come form the people that don't fit the stereotypical image.
