So it looks like the party starts at 9, finishes at 2 and Jarvis is DJing! (This is all thanks to Weener's detective skills btw)

 So where is the party, Jarvgirl? Is it in Tudor Square by any chance?

Well done, Sherlock Weener, btw.

Oh I couldn't possibly say, Panther. wink

Anyone going to the Leadmill? There's an obligatory Pulp special on.

I really enjoyed that. And the rainbow on the way out was a nice touch.

Great night! Sounds as if I may have made it onto the DVD extras too if the Q and A is on there.

I get the feeling after that Q and A that they'll all end up on Jarvis's solo work. They'd obviously probably even be doing more gigs if it wasn't for Candida's understandable reticence.

 So wouldn't that be Pulp?

It was very surreal when I arrived at the cinema and the women's choir was singing. I thought I was in the wrong screen. I wish I'd known the film itself started at 6pm, could have had a beer in the pub outside.
As for the film, I liked the concert footage, the bits with the band and tour manager and even the Help The Aged rendition in the cafe. But the rest just left me cold. I guess I wasn't expecting a Sheffield homage.
I had to leave before the q&a - was there anything of note?

It wouldn't necessarily be Pulp. It depends if they were to have an input in the writing. Weren't most of them on his first solo album in some form or other?

As I remarked after the film had finished 'Only Pulp could be have a film made about them where by the end you know absolutely nothing about the band that you didn't know before'.

Exactly what I was thinking. I know this would probably never happen, but it would be nice if the Pulp members started writing together again, without the pressure of it being a new Pulp record, or even having to tour it. To do a new album under another name would be nice.

I enjoyed the film, Jarvis is a naturally amusing character which we all know all to well..How many artists could make something as mundane as changing a tyre or feeding the ducks tragically funny? Anyways, not entirely sure if there was any point in including Pulp as a musical entity as part of this Sheffield homage. Not sure if i want to watch it again either..

I thought it was excellent. I wish we could have the full gig footage as well though.

Just remembered my quote of the night:

I mainly learnt that Nick has amazing dance skills.

And that he's probably available for Weddings and other social occasions but I wouldn't book him to DJ at my party!

Nick's djing was excellent - first time I've heard jilted john on the dancefloor (though given that I am 19 that's not so surprising).

Loved the film, and the extras at the premier like the neon sign and choir outside.

Oh I wish I could have made it to the after party! I had to be elsewhere as soon as the film finished (caught maybe 10 mins of the Q&A). I gave my wristband to John Quinn, ex Sheffield Star music writer, so that was my good deed for the night.

Thought the film was fairly entertaining, quite idiosyncratic but an elegant solution to the band not wanting to so a 'normal' concert/documentary film. Really interesting (and sad) to hear about Candida 's struggles with arthritis. In fact all of the band had their moment to shine - Nick's bit about the football team was great (as was his bit in the Q&A about the rear view of Jarvis). And Mark too - "Is Jarvis a common person? I think he has the... potential to be".

Wasn't keen on the choir in afraid, and some of the other vox pop stuff was maybe a bit overdone - a bit of more ruthless editing would have tightened it up in places in my opinion. Loved Help the Aged in the cafe though!

Nice to briefly meet Pip beforehand. Oh and Magnus Doyle was sat a couple of rows behind me.

 I reckon there was plenty of other material that could have been used.  There wasn't too much with Mark nor Steve, and it wasn't as if Candida nor Nick were overexposed.   I thought the issue of their relationship with Sheffield was the story, especially making up for The Day That Never Happened and it would have been better explored from their perspective.  

But Help The Aged in the cafe was a highlight!  Loved the way it was played out.  The bloke in the corner looked like he was in fear from the old girls fancying a bit of older rough.
