MON 1ST - THE DEAD PETS, MISLED YOUTH & GILMAN STREET...8PM...£4
The Dead Pets sound to the un-initiated is as modern old school punk rock
with a Ska tinge. All the aggression of Agnostic Front, all the charm of the
Mighty Mighty Bosstone's and all the fun of the Dropkick Murphy's. The
seven-musician line up (including two bassists?) creates a solid yet clean
sound. They're scruffy, tasteless, rude, offensive, aggressive and instantly
likeable. The whole band ooze charisma, and they possess one vital strength
that you rarely see with commercial punk bands... they all look like they
are having a great time. And this creates a great atmosphere in a small
venue!! www.thedeadpets.co.uk

TUES 2ND - ACOUSTIC OPEN MIC hosted by STEVE CRAWFORD...8PM...FREE

WED 3RD - PARAVION, FOIL, DEDALUS & JAILBIRD LIME...8PM...£3.50
FOIL - Fine Edinburgh band, signed to 13th Hour records, who have already
released an album and several eps. Some say Arab Strap, some say Idlewild.
PARAVION - Discordant yet progressive, these hell worshipers are tour
support to Foil around Scotland. Think June of 44, laden with depth and
fantastic guitar sounds. DEDALUS - Think Joy Division angles, tinged with
Interpol, and The Smiths melodies, while being compromised by God Speed You
& JAILBIRD LIME - He listens to an unhealthy amount of Bright Eyes, Flaming
Lips and The Microphones. Acoustic and shows excellence.

king tuts (with nada surf, sparta, cooper temple clause etc.), and radio
one's snowbombing have helped establish a good live following. their popcore
sound (think weezer meets ...trail of dead) sits well with the current
musical climate, ensuring regular airplay. BOSS STAR are a 4 piece power pop
band from Dundee who combine the melodic hooks of The Fountain of Wayne and
the soaring guitar work of Weezer.
