I previous reffered in Owl Syncs to the demise of the Foundry in Shoreditch. This bar, gallery, party venue has been a feature of the shoreditch scene for nearly a decade.Its living life on the edge and may already have been sold to developers for the site of a plush new hotel ,despite a passioned plea from Bill drummond of the KLF it seems its days are numbered and attention has shifted to Plastic people which also faces a closure order well they say these things come in 3's
Last night I went to what might be my last night at the foundry featureing DJ's Wrongspeed and Orgone , Some of my best memories of the foundry include ; being freaked out by a chaos magician in the basement at Lisa Lovebuckets birthday party, chatting to two dominatrixes about the church of subgenius the night I met hooray 23, being asked to DJ for Yellow Dragon Records and of listening to friends and meeting new ones at "Vinyl pleasures". Life is changing for me but "The Owls" have returned, last night DJ Orgone (the new tech house sensation) reminded me of The Owl references in Twin peaks , and today Steve Willner mentioned an Owl/Osirus connection in a podcast on Red Ice Radio.While my wife is determined I post a photo of myself standing beside "owl" my parents morris minor saloon.
