More amazing archive content from @Jack_Risley of Charli xcx. Chaz from @thecoolness was ahead of the game. Glory days of East London with Chew Lips and Is Tropical, and Dalston before bardens boudoir closed.
Thread part 2 π§΅ Every era starts somewhere. For Charli XCX, it was East London warehouse raves. I spoke with Chaz from @thecoolness and he's opened up the archive, with more rare photos & rave flyers
Charli XCX told her origin story on Madonna's Danceteria Afterhours: Hackney Wick, MySpace, Le Couteau Jaune. So I dug out the actual flyers. Here's the 2008β09 East London warehouse era that made her. Thread incoming! π§΅
being married is funny because you'll be chilling, having a bowl of cereal, and your wife will say
i hate these bowls, don't you?
and you'll shrug becuase you don't care and she'll say
i do, they've bothered me for a while now. we need new bowls.
and you'll shrug again because you have honestly, not once, ever considered the bowls at all
then a few days later there will be all new bowls in the kitchen.
and you'll be eating the same cereal in a different bowl, chilling, and she'll say
i love these new bowls
and you'll shrug again because you still don't care but she's happier and the cereal is still good and you didn't do anything at all
If you add the numbers shown, plus the four and twenty million from The Masterplan, and multiply that by the one, two, three and four from Fade In-Out, you get your place in the Manchester Ticketmaster Oasis queue.
