CARIBOU (City Slang/Merge)
Having toured around the world playing his new long play Andorra, we are simply thrilled
that Dan Snaith's Caribou is going to bring his FOUR piece Poptastic-Neu/Kraut-electro-'60's vocal influenced-visual roadshow back to Aberdeen on the last leg of the Andorra tour. Caribou's events always bring forth glowing sunshine and smiles; Come and see him in one of his favourite indoor venues, where his new VISUALS & his finely honed live sound will be guaranteed to "blow you away". An artist currently on absolutely TOP form in the live setting

"All up it was the most engaging Caribou live show yet, and one that would
have sounded even better in a slightly different setting".

Caribou coming to one of his favourite UK venues will certainly provide that......look out for a special performance and a very special night, because we also have...


BORN RUFFIANS (XL & WARP Records)
Fellow Ontarian's Born Ruffians are a three piece band who were signed to both the above labels in Europe & America on the basis of a four track demo. Built up their live shows with hyperactive stage antics, & small tours with Hidden Cameras & Hot Chip, but really honed their live craft when touring North America with Caribou for 6weeks last Oct/Nov. Here's the return leg in the UK, so Dan Snaith must like these kids a whole lot as well. Also chosen to play ATP v Pitchfork so something must be special about them.

Their long play isn't out till May but it already been reviewed in advance by
Pitchfork Review 8 out of 10
on 27th Feb 08
http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/articl...ed-yellow-blue

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++

Think this could be one very special night, so please note unless you are willing to jump about & & smile a lot this event isn't for you.

================================================== ===============

Lastly, a very special offer:-
Buy a Caribou ticket in advance (including the still valid February ones), come the following night to our FANTASTIC Stars of The Lid* event with your Caribou ticket which will be endorsed, KEEP your Caribou ticket to present @ any one of our autumn events where the entry is £5 & you will get-in FREE.

*Stars of the Lid can be ticket in advance OR cash on the door BUT you must
take your Caribou ticket to be endorsed.
RSVP'd Yes: 13 RSVP'd Maybe: 3 RSVP'd No: 2
RSVP sign-ups for this event are now closed.

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.
fuxk didn't realise it was that long after Gothenburg & probably just my immagination seeing those objects being thrown & hearing those noises......

anyhow all footy fans will be able to see Caribou providing they can still leg it!!!!!!!!!

I got ticket 130 on Tuesday.
Could we see this selling out?
Would the tables and chairs be sacrificed if too many people bought tickets?

Like the ticket?

Whilst iI expect it will do really well, I can't see it selling out...............

Downstairs will not have any tables or chairs we need to maximise space
especially in front of the stage, where i expect some bouncy activity for both bands.........
