As is generally the case with myself. The difference being, I hear of no discussion about them afterwards on the vast majority of ocasions. A few years a go I could come on here and guarentee there would be discussion about most of the gigs I attend.

I haven't not noticed any being talked about on here a great deal. This is not to say they do not exist, merely that they have not been focus of much discussion on this forum.

My friend's band supported a band that were apparently signed to some record company and played on radio 1, cannot remember name. They weren't that well recieved at the gig concidering their backing. Indie style or something like that. Anyone know anything of them?

Then there is My Minds Weapon who are doing rather well for themselves.

Apart from that, I am not aware of anything you could class as an 'established' band that has appeared in the last couple of years.
