Jimmy:Are you calling my girlfriend ugly?That's not very nice.

*Jimmy and DAvey are now both near the Mason/Comatose table*

Davey:Dude if I don't get a fix I think I'm gonna die
Jimmy:It can't be that bad dude we just started using again,eat some damn crackers or something.
Davey:Ok fine. SOMEONE GIVE ME SO GODDAMN CRACKER BEFORE I KICK SOME ASS IN THIS BITCH
Jimmy:That is not how you make friends Davey.
Davey:*faints*

He frowned. "Hrm I think I gathered that part at least. Glad to say at least I've never encountered him myself. What's his story?"
"He's from The Nimrods, I think", Blake answered. Mason gave a slight nod as recognition of the name. At Jakey's comment about MFV, he let out a warm laugh.
"Ahh good times, I guess. It's been quite a while since then... I haven't seen or spoke to any of them for a long time. It'll probably stay that way for the best." Mason took another sip from his glass, recalling the IMA Awards three ceremonies ago and his choice to bring along Hayley and Simon. Needless to say, the evening was a shy worse of awkward.

Laura : I probably have, but God thinks differently.
Laura walks away from Jimmy.
Joshy : Sorry about her .... ooh!
Barsteward turns on the TV.
Su (on TV) : Hello, I'm Su Fierce Spears, I'm here with Dame Katie Kairiri, who helped count the IMAs votes, which will be out in half an hour. What can we expect, Katie?
Katie (on TV) : A very varied, interesting and long list of nominations for this Birdies! So many choices ....

The three quarters of Final Heaven notice the TV display. Blake prods Lewis. "Hey, reckon we'll get nominated?" Mason screws up his face for a moment.
"Maybe. I'm not too bothered, I'm just more interested in seeing who comes out as winners this time round."
Morris leans in over the bar. "We did get some brilliant critique from the AP.net kids for the album art though? Gotta hand it to you Lewis, you've been kicking out artwork for a long long time." Mason slightly smiles in response but doesn't reciprocate.
"Well we'll see in a half hour." Jakey whispered something in his ear, and he turned around, surveying the situation for a brief moment. "Hah, I don't think I'd wish either of them upon anyone, even themselves."

Jakey turns around. "No". He turns back.
"I reckon you'll be nominated Lewis, your art's as good as your music, and that's saying something", said Jakey, who had always admired Lewis' skills. "As for nominations.. this year I'd like to win best solo artist. I'm dropping 'This Comatose', and just releasing under Jakey Comatose, because to be honest that's what it's like now. Session musicians and whatnot."

Blinking quickly, Mason snorts before turning round again and uttering "Dream on, darling..." He listened to Jakey a minute; finger tracing his glass again which he still hadn't succeeding in emptying. "Thanks J, but honestly it's no matter for me if we win or lose. We're making the music we want to now." He partially bit his tongue on the last word before taking another drink and emptying the glass. As he poured another, Morris spoke.
"You'll be up there for Best Solo for sure. The last album was on fire, and there's too many lacklustre sparks about nowadays."

Barsteward turns the volume up.
Su : IMAs presenter Bikki will now announce the official IMAs nominations.
(OOC : See related thread.)

Jakey felt overjoyed at his nominations, and those of his friends. "Scoooore", shouted Jakey, jumping from his seat. The bar steward looked disapprovingly.
"A little over excited there, Jakey?"
"I am guilty of getting over excited, I admit. But .. wow.. nominations!" he said, feeling honoured. He patted Lewis on the back, saying "There you go - artwork nominations! And a rather sneaky Most Attractive, too. Also - Hannah and Taylor sex swapping. I can't even BEGIN to think where that came from..", he sniggered.

"Hahah yeah, and you trashed us 9 to 3. Well done J!" Mason said, thumping Jakey back. "Looks like the £300 champagne will be on us once our album hits the charts, ahahah!" Regardless, he called for the bar steward to bring another round.
"Most attractive male, eh? Lewis, you dog..." Blake poked at him. Mason grinned.
"Nice to know I haven't aged badly then, hahahh..." the drinks arrived for his bandmates and Jakey. "Good to know we're not entirely forgotten about though!"
