sometimes I’d see xylo doing srs non-book meetings and didn’t want to interrupt
probably a people trafficking business or something

I’m fairly sure that other Dissers have been at the same gigs as me, but never 100% sure so bottled out of talking to them

Probs at least 50-75% of the DiS Football lot at each game I played in

Because a yes here could seem stalky, it’s only ever been Nottingham DiSers who were too far away to holler at.

Is that the one at the Electric Ballroom?

Half of DiS was there that night, including me.

it… i think it was yes. i managed to only bump into ant though :frowning:

Does shouting at someone on a football pitch count as speaking to them?

If not, that probably affects my vote.

I think I saw a few DiS-ers at the Cave In show in London last year but in a crowd full of 30something mostly bearded nerds who could tell?

it’s funny, I know we’ve played in games together but I think we’ve only briefly spoken IRL?

I vaguely remember you being nice!

but yeah, considering how you are, it feels funny we didn’t end up talking more

giggling just thinking about them. good times

there’s such a weight sometimes, on finally talking to someone you know so much about. with some dissers i find myself fully slamming on the brakes because i don’t know if it’ll be weird to go “how did your surgery go, and by the way are you still eating eggs wrong?” when we’ve just met for the first time ever

Once knowingly at a gig many years ago and I was too shy to say hello

I wasn’t counting the shouting if that was my only communication

Apart from a few Cardiff folk the most I’ve met was at the Manchester Dis-state gig and honestly I spent most of the day exuding rockstar cool (quietly shitting myself) about playing the closing set, so probably came across as quiet and a bit detached. Not usually how I am, but they were unusual circumstances.

regret not speaking to @aboynamedgoo and a few others after the DiS FC loss at the hands of a random bunch of Sheffield misfits. Had to rush off straight after.

yes, yes and yes!

I kind of always felt a bit out of the loop at DiS games socially and was being a bit shy. Wish I’d been more forward
