I called a lady at the Barrowlands and she said that they were playing tomorrow night (13th), then she changed and said they weren't, and that the Distillers were actually playing. Buddyhead says they are playing, Barrowlands said no. She also said that there are no bookings for the Icarus Line. Anybody know whats going on?

buddyhead...you're looking at an american website that mainly persists in taking the piss out of bands for gig listings in scotland...?

i despair...

The Icarus Line are on the Buddyhead label. Aaron Buddyhead/Icarus is unlikely to publish wrong information about his own band intentionally.

The Icarus Line are more boring than watching my TV when it's switched off. I'm not sure I'm out of my mind to dislike a band you do, oh mighy aberdeen music punk preacher. Eh? You could be an outside dog. Would you like that? Eh? Outside?

HERE HERE! Well said that man

its true, distillers are absolutely pants compared to icarus line....wait...they are absolutely pants comparesd to anyone, thats maybe because im not a fan of their style of music, maybe im just annoyed NME voted the woman the second collest person in rock...unfortunately rock.

i would say the icarus line are one of the best hasrdcore punk bands ever, but thats just because they are!

but hey, everyone has different tastes

I saw the Icarus Line and they were fucking awful. One of the most overrated bands I have ever seen! As a live act The Distillers are a million bajillion times more interesting and I don't even like them that much! The very fact that Josh Holme walked on stage for The Eagle Death Metal Project overshadowed all the support acts, including the band for whome he was playing drums. Anyway, not only do I not like the Icarus Line's boring, dreary rock n roll stylez, but they were actually poor live. No better than a lot of Aberdeen bands that I have seen. I'm also getting tired of people who refer to the crowd as "mother fuckers" or "you bitches" and who say "you're welcome" rather than "thank you".

Maybe I'm getting old. The Distillers rocked on the other hand. much much better than I expected
