  1. yeah, just a couple: it was too hot.

    the 10 easy new songs were pretty damn fine!

    i didnt hear much of Gone 2 Far,( cos i was stuck selling cds) but what i did hear was nae bad, the drummer is pretty good aswell.

    i didnt catch broken sunshine (again because of cds) but i've seen/been on the same bill with them heaps and i can honestly say that i dont care too much for them.

    our set wasn't too hot though

    crowd was a bit uneasy though

    all in all a fairly good night we sold 7 cds and we sold 2 10 Easy Wishes CDs, (and we didnt ask for any reward for doing that)

  2. The thing I find about bands of these ilk is that they pay little or no attention to their actual sound. If these bands had spent a little more time on beefing up their respective guitar and bass sounds' date=' I'm sure it would've been better.

    we do pay attention to our sound, but theres only SO much you can do with a pair of 100 watt combos. we'll gladly swap gear with MMW, ken?

    I like Gilman' date=' but sometimes I get the impression that they just try and go way too fast, as opposed to actually working on the songs and keeping them in time, and Stu tends to go out of time a fair bit as a result.

    true

  3. Its like i said tho the media totally shun type of bands ive mentioned......

    or maybe the types of band you like shun the media?

    but i mean i can see why HMV Virgin or even the independents choose NOT to play any extreme of a genre because the majority of their custom would be coming from the average music fan,or the kids buying that weeks singles, so it would pretty much alienate their customers by having for example Spazz or PIg Destroyer playing on the P.A

    thats where dr dre etc. have got the smarts, with the invention of the "radio edit"

  4. 7.30 -11pm 4

    The Hunchbacks are female fronted punk n'roll...like The Queers/Mr T Experience (they have that beach boys sound goin on...and are from Birmingham)

    Panic have been on the punk scene since 1994 with their own brand of Ramones style pop-punk and are on Crackle records, check their websites for yourselves (it'll be on the Drakes forum)

    and Broekn Sunshine ( i think?)

    and our ep will be available for 3 only

  5. But I reckon these young whipper snappers need to be shown what punk REALLY sounded like.

    just no. i hate this attitude of punk elitism, i mean it comes from both sides, i.e the fans of old, feel superior to the fans of new, and vice versa.

    why not embrace both sounds? afterall is it not the content that matters? the conviction in the song etc? and i can't understand how a band playing all covers exactly the way the songs were written can have as much conviction to the music as those who played it that way first.

    but yeah i'd rather see the band playing various bands songs

  6. haha' date=' wotever you say, . I don't like the two, punk sucks balls. i dont really care wot cunts like you think and when you look at ska punk, it is happy, u dumbfuck, upbeat, they dont talk about death etc like bands like slayer does.[/quote']

    ToTAllY c0Z def is da kEwleSt 666 :rockon:

    dont get me wrong slayer are awesome, but i mean can you really relate to death? doesn't it get old hearing about death on EVERY song?

  7. Stripey is people involved in music you like are "experimental" and "artistic" why would they turn their back on guitars,or for that matter any instrument capable of creating sound? that to me would seem arrogant,and not very "experimental, is it not just a case that they want to use digital equipment and make music that they want to, just the same as the "cretins"?

    then again it might just be somone trying to be "alternative" which is just pish.
