hey!

i'm the girl on the chair, getting her hair cut.

wanted to say thank you so much for putting this up. i look like a twat but i was trying to show the complete blank feeling the person in the song has when they're just being abused, you just let it happen because that's all you have left. it wss fun to act

anyways i'm rambling so i'l stop but yeah.

thank you :)

Yeah, I just had a look and no-one else put up a video of it yet (except your friend towards the end?). Sorry it took me so long to put up though, I flew to America a few hours later and only just got back! I was really impressed with your "performance" though... I don't think it would have worked right if you'd acted any other way. Also kudos for doing it! As a fellow long haired person I know that took some guts!

[theshimmyingfish]

Aww no, don't apologise! You're really kind. ^.^

Yup you're right. Just my friend Kath. I've got the first half but unfortunately my computer keeps crashing just s soon as i get to the last stage of uploading it...Still. This is more than enough :)

Thank you! Yay for kudos.

Take care.

Are you ocming to the KOKO show in October?

[marchingstars]

Ah ok, you do have the full thing then :) I always find that EVERYTHING is recorded and up on youtube except the one thing you want most of all :P

Yep, I am going to the KOKO show, but I'm bolting it down from Nottingham in the afternoon and now that they've changed doors to 7pm I'm not gonna get their for doors (and as a serial queuer this is seriously distressing to me!) so yeah, I'll be there somewhere... but I know that ICA show was the special small one :)

[screenanme]

Cool thing Shimmy...sounds you are very brave! Love it! xxx

[persona19]

die hipster scum!

[screenanme]

Awe...I so wish I was there that night, seems I really missed something special! Love to all...xxx

[theshimmyingfish]

oh no, not tickets...i meant to be let in.

:) stupid youtube without an "edit comment" sign...

[theshimmyingfish]

haha yup that's always the way!

Haha ace! I'l see you there Iguess, even if I don't recognise you, but yeah, definitely won't be as intimate as the ICA. I was lucky actually to see amanda by accident before her show. she pulled up for her sound check just as i left there to ask what tme we should start queueing for tickets-one of those crazy unexpected meetings :P

i know it's something we'll never forget!
