StewCat

I will listen to it tomorrow and chill out.

thaaaaats better!

now lets get wasted tonight!

That is one quality tune. "You fucked off forever" hehe. If there is a song to chill out to on Sunday afternoon then this is it.

But its Saturday???

Yes, apart from the fact that they are being slagged off for being illiterate, clueless and musically shit, not for being the 'outsider artists' they seem to reckon they are. HINT: It's not actually a good thing to be in a terrible band. It doesn't mean you are headstrong or independant, or that you refuse to follow a crowd. Also, although the guy is 25, most people are probably assuming that they are clueless pre-pubescent teens who need to be taken down a peg after their claim that they 'kick ass'. At the end of the day, if you jump onto a forum (with many users who have years if not decades of experience writing and performing music and recieving acclaim that varies from local respect to international recognition) and start a thread asking for feedback on songs that aren't up to scratch without displaying even a basic grasp of the english language (despite being quarter of a century old), you are in no position to get upset if people get a bit blunt with you. No hard feelings, if they return from their break and showcase some good material I don't think anybody here would slag it off just for the sake of it.

spot on, spot on!

our drummer is unable to attend this gig - which is super shit but...the show must go on!

we're gonna do a nice wee acoustic set for ya'll!

ha what a twat!!

its ppl like you that ruin things and piss ppl off especially me,what makes you think your band is any better than ours?

i agree, i am a twat but i dunno if have the ability to "ruin things for people" (god i wish i could). But first of all to set things straight - i never said my band was "any better than yours". This thread isnt about my band - you started it about yours and im only being honest.

Saying make sure you stay off the scene permanently isn't really feedback.i would rather he call us shite. I know a lot of people dont like the music but rather than make sarcy comments they could say they dont like it and give an opinion on how to make it better.

I find a lot of people on the site really dont give you a chance and i think it's shit as i would give every band on here a chance.

Im in the tunnels 6 nights a week (give of take a night) - i see SO many crap bands! I would consider myself a pretty open minded guy in terms of music but im gonna judge you on what i see/hear. i have seen you guys twice now - and yeah it sounds harsh but you guys are one of the worst bands ive ever seen! And as one of the few people here to have seen the live decipher experience i can honestly say give up.

For years and years people have been going to see shit 14/15+ year olds rubbish school talent show band at drummonds/drakes/kef - heck - ive been in one of those bands in the past and i suppose everyone in a band has been....10 out 10 times this kind of band will be bollocks but you can see potential and in most cases turn out pretty good as they mature as musicians and people (example the xcerts - i saw their first show - bog standard mainstream punk rubbish....5 or so years on they are still going - much more mature). Yet i see your boring set of rubbish songs, cocky stage presence and i conclude that you have nothing to offer the aberdeen music scene and you really shouldn’t be playing a venue like the tunnels - but I blame the promoter for that.

you dont have to listen to me or anyone - HELL - playing in a band is so much fun and if you agree with me ignore all the bad things said about you. But if you ask for someone opinion of your band on a message board the answer might not be what you want to hear - deal with it. And you know what i think.

...we're prob gonna be off the scene for a while...

make sure its for good.

i think it would wouldn't you? o_O

correct.

Save your votes for 'Worst Band'

stu - you'll win that hands down. landslide victory (or loss :S)

oh dear!

Hey, it's not like you were crippled IN the nuts.

i'm going to punch your face.

just back from recording a nice wee tune with alan.

bloody nice bloke that Mr Davidson!

just out of interest - how many of you lot prefer frank turner to million dead? it's interesting now that when his gig's are advertised now people don't even mention million dead!

before he played with us & Dufus last time he came to Aberdeen i had no idea he did acoustic stuff (f-knows how i missed that coz he'd played here before) but yeah, i seem to hear his name everywhere now - i recon people prefer his acoustic stuff.....imo LONG LIVE MILLION DEAD!

Spot on to Ry Walker for getting support slot - he only had to kick a cripple in the nuts to get it .

*not bitter*

upset i'll be missing this one but Franks a busy man - i'm sure he'll be back soon!

Cheers min.

Sorry I had to go a bit early last night Stu. Early start today.

your songs kick ass - come again next week!

Hope the gig went well, needless to say i didn't go as i didn't want to go all the way down there and stand in a queue to find out it had sold out (although i'm sure it didn't), but when you've got other things to do chancing that isn't an option.

you missed out

blood brothers are the tits!!!

and some cans of juice are 70p - rip off!

dont mean to wake a dead thread but the corpse is still warm so here goes:

if you wanna see some awesome punk music go see decipher,its nice that ppl judge bands without seeing them.

i was working on the bar at the tunnles a couple of weeks past or so, i'll start by saying it wasnt "awsome punk music" - it was really fucking dull: really competitive. nae my cup of tea - i like to see some variety in a bands set...you lacked a certain panache - was just like seeing an extreamly unenergetic blink 182 set/gig from 7/8 years ago...maybe longer ago....dull..... the over cockyness online is no different on stage - i thought it was a joke at first (maybe it still is) but it got really old really quick...there aint anything wrong with being cocky its just that it makes u sound like a dick and i dont really wanna speak/listen to you!

i suppose a good thing i took from your set was you were really tight as a band - alot of people like that but personaly if you are 100% tight 'AS FUCK LOLZ11!' it ends the idea of freedom of playing and improvisation. i still managed to make that sound negative...

i'd prob rate you as the 10th worst band* ive seen between 17th January 2006 - 17th January 2007.

*rough approximation

Maybe see you tonight at Open Mike?

his life depends on if he's at open mic tonight - as dose yours mr hog!

would you be interested in reviewing some rockier, grungier music say.....us?

i'd be more than happy to supply you with a free copy of our demo

do it!

im at the tunnels every Tuesday hosting open mic - give it it me then...if not leave it with a note at the bar and i'll pick it up anyother day!

i have to agree with 'THAT GUY' Ry, i saw mark not long ago - his new material is alot more interesting! He's recording a Demo at my house. Funny how things go - from a bad review to helping each other...its pretty gay if you think about it.....suppose it would make sence.....i better shut up now.

My Flatmate whos a real wizz with cameras took these photos...

he can take credit for them later and leave an email address for comissions:

maybe some more to follow...he aint signed up to aberdeen-music...yet!!!

kick ass night!

most fun ive had at a gig for a long time! thanks everyone who played and watched - and cheers IMP for everything!!

it looks shit. i dislike ipods and itunes and anything else they can put 'i' in front of.

as stripy said its just more shit for idiots to buy...or buy for their kids.

i'll stick with my tape cassette recorder, my pc mic & cool edit pro.

i got this with the money i made working on new year:

its got a built in digital tuner and ah'thin! - affa funcy!

Fatrb!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

what a good night it was for acoustic music! shame it was empty!

really enjoyed everyones set! piccys to follow..

Amanda Duncan is unable to play.

StewCat (1/3 of El Holieo Folkeefs) will be performing and acoustic set in the fashion to which he knows. It'll be well bum!

Keep it Foolish.
