It's a disaster for local live music to be sure. The Malt Mill has been a live venue since the 70s and to see it close kind of brings an era to a close. It used to be my local when I was a loon and the then publican, Archie Aitken, would never have music in the lounge despite me bending his ear for years. It's a damn shame that what Gav & co have built up has to go because of one whingeing incomer's complaints. Hopefully as Frosty Jack says, somewhere else will take over the gigs and hopefully the blues jam as well. Best wishes to Gav and his crew for the future, hope they all find new roads to follow.

Finally...and after some unavoidable delays.... the return of the Daviot Blues jam is nigh! July 17th, 3 'till 7. Smiddy Bar, Daviot, near Inverurie. Whether your primary influence is Charley Patton or Cody Dickinson, Eric Clapton or Eric Morecambe- if you bring an instrument, you will get a spot.
