Where to start really?
Seeing Psydoll live (something that I never really thought'd happen) and watching people pile glasses on Dave's head as he slept at the top of the stairs. Countless amazing live sets from the likes of Vomitus, Cat On Form, Hero Dishonest, Errata, Defenestration, The Dangerfields, The Independents, Piney Gir, Motormark, Make Her Cry, Drowning The World In Requiem, Matahari, Filthpact, Groovie Ghoulies, 7 Stone Under, Opaque etc.etc.  Much amusement and horror at countless Karloff gigs. Started off DJing there when I could inbetween bands which was ace fun. Having to be removed from the decks by Jim on said first occasion as I was having too much of aforementioned fun. Rocking out to Ben Folds Five after the last Karloff gig with Marsh - "Ye didnae think I'd like Ben Folds Five did ye?!" Glorious times - I'll post more when I remember them. It's thanks to places like Drakes that my memory takes so long to function  |

First time I ever went to Drakes would have been about 2 years ago... maybe more...
It was some sort of all-dayer, I can hardly remember who played: I don't think I even knew half of the bands in Aberdeen back then aside from Black Atom and Quik etc. But I do remember that Gumpy was singing "How You Remind Me" with his band... Interesting. I didn't get the chance to go back to Drakes much until recently, I kept meaning to go down to gigs then being unable to for reasons or whatnot. Wish I'd been able to go more now... Ack. I'm just glad I started going again before they decided to close, playing with Deadloss 3 times was fantastic, n I got to see ClearTone for the first time in ages. My memory of Drakes will always be linked to Deadloss Superstar, or Brian Fudge getting drunk in some capacity even if he wasn't playing a gig, drawing boobs on my Fudge MAs voting slip, my 'cello nearly being totalled by Martin Deadloss kicking a stool off the stage as I jumped off it, and of course John and I clearing the bar of Strongbow cans on the last gig night... Good times had by all. Gonna miss it! Just wish I could have gone more often when I had the chance! |

Besides our first gig, and all the other ace ones after that....
Sludge getting pissed out of his face and attacking/kissing Johnny-A-Go-Go on stage, then beating up Blair Quik outside. Sideshow Jay when he failed to drink a pint of liquified onions and had to rub french mustard in his eyes/when he stapled an 'Onion Terror' sign to his chest and back. Extreme yule log competition where Asian PWND the other two contestants. Forming and splitting as 'My Grunnie's Fucking Shit-Faced' when bench were left as the only band on the night. Meeting a few very pretty girlies. I could go on all day but i'd say that drakes is 90% of the driving force for my enthusiasm for live/local music. |

So many...
Shouting Myke playing Drakes for the second time with Alyssa's Wish and (i think) xcerts supporting such an amazing gig. Fudge Birthday bash with Broken Sunshine,Deadloss Superstar,Caeto and Festr. Was djing for this and probably the most fun Ive had at a gig so far. AUBL Poll:ution with the hilarious introduction from Hot Mangu in their superhero costumes. |
