When did mediocrity and banality become a good image for your children? ... The New Kids! "Hi we're the New Kids and we're so good and clean-cut..." "We're so clean cut!" Seig Heil! Heil! Heil! A good clean country... Heil! Heil! Heil! Fuck that! I want my rock stars dead! I want them to fucking play with one hand and put a gun in their other fucking hand and go "I hope you enjoy the show!" *Bang!* Yes! Yes! Play from your fucking heart!

Piss off, I've been 'showing some support' (eg. going to things that I want to, putting on shows in a way that is as ethical as possible) far longer than you've been keeping an eye on the potential cash cow. This is local music in it's lowest denominator, ie the band are local. Doesn't mean I should support some people playing out their rock star fantasies by milking money off of a far more talented and successfull band. Dude, the last show I was at was £4 for two local bands playing original material and another band from Glasgow. The last show I was involved with putting on involved two acts from the US, a band from Dundee and a band from Stonehaven. It was £4. I can watch a covers band or whatever for free down the road whenever I like (okay, when they are actually playing, I couldn't go down at 5am on Christmas morning).

QUICK, EVERYONE PUT DOWN THIS GIG AS FAST AS YOU CAN!!!

Heaps of folk have paid £6 to see local bands before, and will probably have to again sometime soon. It's not that big a deal, so it's a coulple of bucks more expensive than a gig at Drummonds, big woop, you can't get a pint for that in most places.

I've heard In Your Honour are pretty ace anyway.

1 hour 30 to 1 hr 45 mins should be the length of the set. Just a correction to the original post, they are actually a 4 piece.

what an absolute pile of shite that is. have you ever been to see any tribute band in any form and if you have, then you are a hypocrite. I can say from personal experience of having played in another tribute band (Skint Lizzy) that we are not "playing out our rock star fantasies" as you put it. I did it (and still do) to try and get a different style into my playing. Aren't tribute bands in fact "paying tribute" to bands that people enjoy - hence the name? Also, isn't everyone in an original material band "playing out a rock (or insert alternative genre here) star fantasy? Or is "for the music"? OK, so it's £6, woop dee doo. If you dont want to pay, dont bother going. Simple as that. Now stop posting crap.
