But a venue was a bit harder to find...<br /><br />Annie, her friend Andrew, myself and Nicky met at The Lincoln, in Carlton. But it was closed due to a function. What to do? <br /><br />So we wandered down the dark quiet streets seeking the comforts of a warm pub. <br /><br />Aha! Spotted! A pub. We approached, and through the door Nicky asked "Are you open?"<br /><br />"Sorry we're closed for renovations" said the publican.<br /><br />Foiled!<br /><br />And so on we wandered. Over hill, under dale, etc etc.<br /><br />A third pub was spotted. Would we have any luck this time?<br /><br />Yes, it was open!<br /><br />And quiet. Except for the roadies setting up for the metal gig that night. And the quiet, yet easy-going bartender.<br /><br />Check it out: Demonium, Malice's Wake, Annihilation and Abrasion - all on the one gig!<br /><br />Definitely a unique venue for 4 friends to swap soup in. Particularly since none of us had a black t-shirt on, and not a tattoo between us. Just discussion of osso bucco and thai prawn soup. And explaining how this whole soup exchange thing worked to Andrew and Nicky.<br /><br />We didn't stay for the gig. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_K4i33CAleoI/RndIXzOyTWI/AAAAAAAAAdQ/QaKN3CbBhuo/s1600-h/Picture+0210.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_K4i33CAleoI/RndIXzOyTWI/AAAAAAAAAdQ/QaKN3CbBhuo/s320/Picture+0210.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5077606678609939810" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_K4i33CAleoI/RndIizOyTYI/AAAAAAAAAdg/zinJtnts-yc/s1600-h/Picture+0211.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_K4i33CAleoI/RndIizOyTYI/AAAAAAAAAdg/zinJtnts-yc/s320/Picture+0211.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5077606867588500866" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_K4i33CAleoI/RndIqTOyTZI/AAAAAAAAAdo/9Qw0-0j0v-I/s1600-h/Picture+0212.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_K4i33CAleoI/RndIqTOyTZI/AAAAAAAAAdo/9Qw0-0j0v-I/s320/Picture+0212.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5077606996437519762" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_K4i33CAleoI/RndIeTOyTXI/AAAAAAAAAdY/t8cySFwsN14/s1600-h/Picture+0209.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_K4i33CAleoI/RndIeTOyTXI/AAAAAAAAAdY/t8cySFwsN14/s320/Picture+0209.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5077606790279089522" /></a><br /><br><br><br><br><br /><p>Nicky, Annie and Andrew<br /><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br /><p>Any takers?<br /><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br /><p>Did you buy one of these in the end Annie?<br /><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br /><br /><p>A soup spirit.
