The Day That Never Happened photos	Permalink

The Acrylic Afternoons site has just added some really great photos of 'The Day that Never Happened' concert (9th August 1988). Have a look here: http://www.acrylicafternoons.com/leadmill88thumbs.html __________________ www.pulpwiki.net

Wow!!! Stephen (or anyone), you've got to get into Jarvis' basement in Hoxton and find the footage of this! __________________ Tell mester to fck off!*

'kin 'ell! Photographic evidence of 'This house is Condemned' being performed. Wow! What beautiful photos! Eamonn, I may track people down, but I have yet to break in. Mostly 'cos everyone I track down doesn't have anything left anymore... __________________ swaying slightly, drunk on the sun, I suppose

Tremendous stuff. Unexplained things in this photo: (1) Set of rototoms, absolutely nowhere near the drummer (2) Pair of suede trousers (with nothing underneath?) __________________ "Yes I saw her in the chip shop / so I said get yer top off"

I would hazard a guess at the drums being for Jarvis during 'House is Condemned' maybe? He'd want something to do, you'd think. Or would he be guitaring? Hmm? Can't really imagine what it would sound like live. What's unexplained for me is whether or not the photographer is using a really good flash or not. 'cos otherwise, this is one of the most tragically lit gigs I've ever seen! __________________ swaying slightly, drunk on the sun, I suppose

Oh my, those pics on Acrylic Afternoons are just amazing. Wonder where he sourced them from? Is the guy who runs that site a member on here; and if not why not? __________________ Where Pigeons go to die.

'cos otherwise, this is one of the most tragically lit gigs I've ever seen! I've had worse - at my last gig the lighting broke so we had to play with the overhead lights on! Anyway that photo makes a lot more sense than this one -- Edited by Jazza on Monday 26th of March 2012 06:02:51 PM __________________ I'm not Jesus, though I have the same initials mixcloud.com/jasminelightfoot/

Is it not Giles Bosworth who runs that site? Or am I mistaken? I still remember the best (only!) Pulp site when I first came to the world of t'internet. It was called 'Space' but can't remember who ran it. Amazing repository of ~gasp~ Fire singles covers, lyrics, etc. __________________ swaying slightly, drunk on the sun, I suppose

I love that talking fruit photo! At Allo Darlin/Standard Fare in Sheff last month, the lights were on full as the remote control for the fancy lighting had been left in a glass of vodka and mixer. Who's your band, Jazza? __________________ swaying slightly, drunk on the sun, I suppose

Nothing much - I just play trumpet in some funk band- I still expect better though, it was a complete shambles! __________________ I'm not Jesus, though I have the same initials mixcloud.com/jasminelightfoot/

The lighting looks bad cos a flash was indeed used for the photos - I showed them to Mark Webber a while back and he mentioned how you couldn't see his projections cos of the flash. Space was run by Anthony, I forget his last name. The selfsame site eventually became Bar Italia. __________________ "Yes I saw her in the chip shop / so I said get yer top off"

Hmm...when did they appear on ebay? Presumably a fair while ago if you showed them to Mark. I wonder if the person selling them had anything related... Re: his projections, I thought the projections weren't working on the night, hence the TV? __________________ swaying slightly, drunk on the sun, I suppose

Different projections I think. The projector that wasn't working was the video one so maybe Mark's ones were stills. I think they were sold on Ebay about 2 years ago. Apparently the seller didn't know much about them, probably part of a job lot or something. __________________ "Yes I saw her in the chip shop / so I said get yer top off"
