   Cool. So I can bail to the bar after the first one 🙂 Someone will cover for me, right?

   If only we could have some fancy post-awards party like the Vanity Fair job. Heck, that was canceled this year and Elton John stepped in and knocked one together in a few days.

   Maybe Elton would chip in for us lowly bloggers?

   Wasn’t there a sort of impromptu post-awards ‘party’ in 2006? I seem to remember being in a basement somewhere drinking cocktails (or, perhaps, eating cocktail sausages).

   If I lived in the big smoke I’d organise something meself. Pots of scalding tay, hang sandwiches by the bucketload, waltz tunes banged out on a Yamaha keyboard – then everyone off to mass in the morning.

   Fustar, there was much merriment made in the basement of the Merrion. I remember there photos, which is good thing, because after those cocktails you speak of it all got a bit hazy.

   Damien, fear not, we’ll find somewhere to go til the wee hours. I’ll sniff us out a DJ playing the kind of 80s cheese that gets drunk people – even cool music bloggers – fighting their way on to a dancefloor.

   Not me. I was born in the 80s.

   That was the type of DJ we had last year.

   Damn. Missed that. Pregnant ladies are like Cinderella – you have to be home before midnight (or someone will find you asleep in a corner and drooling on yourself).

    So is there going to be a slow set??

    D, are you kidding me? (No pun intended). I meant last year when I was PG!
    This year, I will be drinking twice as much to make up for my sobriety and early leave-taking last year.

    Yes. I kid.
