Local bands that i can see being suitable for opening Discharge, (just my personal opinion btw):

Fuctoff - Teabags get yer finger out and email Steve...
Element 106 - They've come on alot recently, B-R-A-I-N....
Hijacks
Cranial
Forever Tied

There's other bands in Aberdeen which are heavy and i have alot of time for but these spring to mind as being A)available to gig right now and B)suitable for the bill...

Yes I'm well aware of who Discharge are. Bring it. We've opened for metal bands in the past, and we'll do it again. Personally, I don't really get the point in having a support band of the same genre as the main attraction - they always just end up being a shittier version.

Granted, loyal fans of Nizlopi are probably going to warm to us more than the Discharge crowd, but hell, we'll take what we get given...

at no point did I say that it should be a crusty band supporting a crusty headliner, however a namby pamby, bland, acoustic indie band supporting discharge is stupid. it does absolutely nothing for anybody involved other than filling an alloted time and makes the band and the promoter look like a (bunch of) wally (s), not to mention bore the tits out of da punx/those attending.
