Any chance of making it a later show??

NOT a remote chance. NO compromise........

FACT
the last time I heard that sung was in season 1984/85 my last time EVER at Pittodrie when Aberdeen played Rangers & the South Stand RACISTS from Aberdeen chucked bananas at Mark Walters & chanted monkey sounds. The stewards just laughed & did nothing.

Never been back, got better things to do, like put on sublime artists like Caribou & SoTL

History lesson over....

ps would you forgo Caribou to see Rangers win the title at Aberdeen?????

as the timings stand Caribou will go on 9.50pm or 10pm at the very latest , so anybody going to the football could make all his set, even with a 7.45pm k.o. (just a shame to miss a very bouncy set from BR b4).

last batch of 1UP Caribou tickets went into shop last Saturday, its very gratyfying when a Canadian student walks-up buys a ticket when i'm handing these over & says "can't believe one of my very favourite live bands & from my home city is playing in Aberdeen when i'm here studying & for Caribou who ive heard is fantastic live but I always seem to miss to be playing as well, this must be a dream & a highlight so far of my time in Aberdeen"

once these 1UP tickets have gone:-

There's this and the Sons and Daughters gig, and the Aberdeen game (my interest in that coming as a Celtic fan) and it's also the first night of release for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull!

I think I'll go for the Pittodrie/Caribou combo though. Indy will have to wait until the earliest possible showing on the friday.

I've got an exam the next day, so I think I'll have to give this a miss. Extremely annoyed.

Actually this ain't a fact as Mark Walters didn't sign for Rangers until season 1987/88. Can't remember Aberdeen fans flinging bananas at Mark, but there were certainly disgusting incidents of this nature at Hearts and Celtic. Even Rangers had some of their own fans banned for racism directed at him. A bleak period for Scottish football.

Getting back on topic, looks good for attending the game at Pittodrie and catching Caribou. I'm sure there will be quite a few of us legging it up King Street to catch the start of this. Just hope I don't get caught up in any 'bother' post match.
