Is the Aberdeen music scene reliant on this web site?

Is there actually an Aberdeen Music scene?

Are the majority of Aberdeen bands just inferior clones of their favourite musical heroes?

Why is Moshulu/HJB's so blatant with their allowance of underagers on nights that are for 18 +?

No, there are a few diamonds in the rough, but still quite a lot of pish
Moshulu would have nothing to gain by knowingly letting under agers into the club, other than a revoked license. And lets be fair, it's not always easy to tell how old a lot of alt-types really are.

no
yes
yes
possibly couldnt give a toss?

No
Yes, but it's mostly pish.
Yeah, most would argue so.

No(until recently dedalus were non existent on this website but it didn't stop us getting gigs and being part of the scene)
YES
No, i'd say the majority of good bands in aberdeen have stamped their own style on what they do. even the likes of the iron maiden worshipping black atom have their own sound within that sound. there is also a healthy dose of bands who are seeking out a unique style and sound within aberdeen. there is however, a lot of shit bands.
None of my business, though i'd say they don't blatantly allow it. just it's tough telling how old kids are, the bouncers on friday were quite rude when refusing entry to some friends of mine but in the main they were doing their job and asking for id. they did look very young and didn't have id and some may have been underage. so i don't think it's a policy of theirs to let in underagers.
