Harsh but Fair
Cant comment on your original material because iv never heard you guys, and after the elvis set,i dont intend too.

King voodoo- Best aberdeen band iv heard, singer could sneeze and the band would change key, really tight.
Atrium - awesome
The creoles- awesome
The lemon tree writers thing - really good
Glad to hear your thoughts!

If by "the crowd" you mean (presumably) yourself, the hilarious fanatic who went on to win the Elvis quiz + his mates, and are disregarding the rest of the audience that cheered us and made a point of coming up to us and telling us they enjoyed the show, then yes, the crowed booed us. But a little word in your ear... we kinda hoped a few would. Pleasing people who revere "the king" in all his guises is not something we set out to do. Those types should really stick to official Elvis clubs involving only impersonators or DJs playing Elvis recordings, or else just stay at home and listen to CDs. Elvisness isn't Elvisness unless some Elvis fans leave pissed off.

As for being short and having ginger hair: well, I guess that is a crime, and makes my band (and myself) worse. But hey, at least I'm not black!

If you liked Atrium, you should check out the film Ghost World, because there's a band called Blues Hammer featured in it that you'd really like.
