Deadenstereo... and it's goodbye from us - aberdeen-music

Well, the time has come. Sad to announce that after almost six years of practising, touring, recording, travelling in dangerous vans and partying deadenstereo have decided to call it a day.

We'll be playing our final gig at bannermans in Edinburgh on Friday 25th August. We're also going to give away a bunch of 'career spanning' retrospective CDs (I'm sure if anyone from here wanted one that could be arranged).

All that remains is to say a huge thank you on behalf of the whole band, members past and present, to everyone in Aberdeen for making us feel very welcome and for making that torrid drive seem so worthwhile (even in the van!). Personally, it always gave me great pleasure to play in my home town and to receive such a good response. Aberdeen is the best place to gig in Scotland. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Extra special thanks to Fudge, Dr Drakes, The Moorings, AUBL, and everyone who came along and said nice things about us.

It's 1.30pm, I'm drunk... this is the end.

We love you all.

Hi Chris,
Sorry to hear that - bloody coincidence as it's one of the few times I'm on this site and I see this post?! Hope it's just a short break - I really enjoyed your CDs, videos (yes, I've seen it - Jon posted me a link earlier in the year) and the few gigs I saw.
All the best to everyone,
Ian

Cheers Ian, glad to hear you're still alive and well! I'm getting married and moving abroad for a while, and the others have some new projects going on, so I think we've reached the end of the line for the foreseeable future...

How's things anyway? Are you still recording? Any new stuff in the pipeline? Haven't seen you on here for ages (mind you, I haven't been on here much myslf!)

I'll be at Reading festival but would be interested in CDs...

Disappointing I won't see you guys again though. I'm sure the future holds interesting projects.

Send us a pm with address details etc and we'll see what we can do

I'm gutted about this!!! Deadenstereo are one of Scotland's finest RnR bands, up there with the Cherrykicks. All the best with everything Chris, and to the rest of the guys.

big love to the deadenstereo massiiiive. fudge enjoyed every second of banter and music.

i hope to see you all soon, although i may be at the reading festival instead of your last gig.... but i hope it's a rocking one. deadloss have always found it fun to pummel the bassist during the final number. just a thought

Sorry to hear this, guys. All the best for future projects

Cheers everyone. This is turning into quite an emotional thread

Brian - I am actually looking forward to said pummelling! Do you think we might win most missed band at the next fudge awards??! Probably not eh..
