So, only 3 weeks till i'll be flying out to the next STFU adventure. Back to Germany, this time Heidelberg, and I can't wait, especially since I missed the last couple. I'm looking forward to seeing some of you peepz again and getting to know some new STFU-ers.
I have been to a few STFUs; Glasgow, Leeds, Germany, Helsinki. The first one I took part in was Glasgow in Nov '05. I'd never played live before, I didn't really have any proper tunes written and all I had was a shitty electribe and guitar FX pedal, but to my surprise not only did people not throw things at me I actually got applause at the end.
For me personally it kind of blows my mind that, not only have I played live, (something that I doubt I would've done without playing that first STFU) I have also managed to travel to cool places, samples lots of quality foreign beer, meet lots of top people and learnt lots of things such as;
- how to move a parked car using the bouncy-bouncy method
- that drugs are good/bad/funny
- that bacon doesn't necessarily have to be cooked to be enjoyed
...and lots more. It's been cool to see and hear everyone's music getting better as each STFU passes. I'm just trying to keep up.
So if were like me, twiddlin' yer thumbs thinking 'I'm not good enough to play live', get yer arse down to your local stfu, and if there's not one near you then damn well organise one!
What's the worst that could happen? :-) | |

Well, apparently one could end up eating raw bacon.

that hand picture is great 
yes its a case of feel the fear and just do it & then get a real buzz for it....
for me the ultimate stfu'er is bla - i love his attitude - so understated - just has a go and then pulls off some great sonic moments
hope Heidleberg is good - do you have a link to poster for it ?

promotion for stfu heidelberg is done entirely by the venue as i'm not actually living there - they have flyers, a printed program and a poster for their weekly events that has us on it though.
