  1. Anyone know if One Up have any tickets?
  2. I thought it was meant to be totally different from the Arnie one? The trailer looks like they've just re-created exact same scenes. I refuse to watch this.
  3. I need to get Gotham Central. I've been enjoying Brubaker's supernatural crime noir 'Fatale'. Picked up Daredevil: The Man Without Fear by Frank Miller, it was excellent except for the part of where he gets the name Daredevil. I thought that made no sense. All of Bendis and Brubaker Daredevil stuff is excellent and I've heard great things about Mark Waid's run. The Boys by Garth Ennis is reaching a stunning conclusion and Brian Azzarello's unique take on Wonder Woman has been awesome.
  4. for some reason The No Pints never recorded anything sadly. Got a few Planeteers recordings that were never released I think though.
  5. I've just seen this thread, could someone give me an invite to this: joetown_punk@hotmail.com
  6. sorry I didn't make that very clear...I mean I am seeing lots of tours announced for Autumn kind of time, the type of places you'd think that maybe Moshulu/Garage would be the ideal venue but have heard of no other bookings for the venue except for Mark Lanegan.
  7. I wondered this too, lots of tours and gigs are being announced for Autumn so I was expecting more news, but there has been no updates on this since the initial anouncement and it doesn't look like any work has taken place - a little worrying with only two months to go (presumably it needs a lot of refurbishment to soundproof the place better?)
  8. I bought a couple of extra tickets by accident so if anyone wants to buy any for a fiver, giz a message
  9. How was Simon? I enjoyed Kitchen Cynics Orchestra and Gareth Dickson but was too tired to stay any longer...poor effort on my behalf I know
  10. Free Bombed Out sampler featuring track by The Dauntless Elite and loads of other ace bands here: http://www.bombedout.com/discography/bomb030/various-artists-a-people's-history-of-bombed-out-records
  11. Wondered if anyone has a PA system/knows anyone that has one that we could borrow or hire next Friday (4th May). I know Captain Toms do PA hire, just thought I'd check if there is any cheaper options on the go...
  12. GFN? presents: THE DAUNTLESS ELITE (Plan-It-X Records) Melodic punk from Leeds featuring ex-members of Fig 4.0 and Joe 90. These are without a doubt one of the best bands on the current UK punk scene and are veterans of The Fest in Gainsville, Florida! ESCAPE TO VICTORY Aberdeen punk/hardcore outfit return for their first gig in nearly a year!

  13. I bought a ton of Julian Cope/Teardrop Explodes records on here a while back but there was a lot of duplicates/stuff I didn't really need...22 records in total, ideally looking to sell as a job lot (£20) but will consider offers for individual records. If you want specific info on any of the records (b-sides, catalogue numbers, condition etc.) get in touch Teardrop Explodes Kilimanjaro LP (1984 pressing) Kilimanjaro LP Kilimanjaro LP Treason (It’s Just A Story) 12” EP Count to Ten and Run For Cover 12” EP Serious Danger 12” EP Julian Cope East Easy Rider 12” EP Love L.U.V.

  14. Nah you won't, you're playing a gig that night
  15. The new Muppets movie is absolutely amazing and the Toy Story short that was on before it was worth the admission alone. I loved last year's Source Code, a really clever sci-fi/time-travel film in a similar vein to Inception, Lost etc and a good performance from Jake Gyllenhall (or however you spell his name). I also finally got round to watching Snatch recently. I wasn't a big fan of Lock, Stock so was never too keen on seeing Snatch but I'm glad I did. One of the best British films I've seen and Brad Pitt's role as a gypsy is genius.
  16. I did...The Wi-Yo's at Blue Lamp get my #1
  17. Marvel fans might be interested in this: http://www.graphicnovelcollection.com/index.html

  20. Steeleye Span - Gaudete Paul McCartney - Pipes of Peace Simon & Garfunkel - 5 0' Clock News/Silent Night Pogues - Fairytale in New York Run DMC - Xmas in Holis Bruce Springsteen & The E-Street Band - Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town Bob Dylan - Must Be Santa MU330 - I Got This Neighbour Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) (i like the original but grew up knowing U2's version which is also great, it's kind of a hard song to mess up) probably tons more I'm forgetting but I find it difficult to pick my favourite from that list, all amazing.
  21. If you've not already, check out 1602 by Neil Gaiman, which is just a what-if the Marvel Universe was set in 1602 but is really well written (as you'd expect by Neil Gaiman). Lots of clever twists and it makes sense in a way how the X-Men are treated as witches in the times of James I and the Spanish Inquisition etc
  22. If you enjoyed Frank Miller's Batman then you may enjoy Scott Snyder's recent run on Detective Comics which has been collected as Batman: The Black Mirror. Dick Grayson is Batman in this story but it follows on 20+ years from Year One. My favourite series is Preacher by Garth Ennis which is equally violent, hilarious and moving throughout. Essential.
  23. I'm pretty sure it was Brian Michael Bendis that killed Spiderman. But it was Ultimate Spiderman so it didn't really count...
  24. I think Aberdeen is pretty good for a lot of reasons. However, I also think Hull is great too so maybe my opinion isn't really valid...
