  1. seen plenty of amazing gigs there, but i never really liked the atmosphere of kef... still it will be sad to see one of aberdeens longest running venues go! i hope paul organises something to make it go out with a bang :D

    if i do it will be with local acts, not enough time to put a big bill together, would have been nice though.

    anyone think thats viable?

  2. i saw biffy clyro play there what seems like an absolute age ago. there were about 13 people there. it was fucking amazing.

    i also remember seeing funeral for a friend there after the man on the door very nicely let me for super cheap since FFAF were just about to start.

    unfortunately i also remember almost getting chucked out after my mate got caught flashing bands on stage from upstairs.

    good times, bad times. shame it's going but admittedly i haven't been in a while.

    yup, that may have been biffys first aberdeen gig.

  3. Good times with the capdown gigs, king prawn, the damned, china drum, cecil, amen and counteless others.

    I remember seeing Skindred there and Benji done some kinda ragga version of happy birthday for me.

    It seemed capdown played there every month for a while.

    The more I think about it, the more good gigs I can think of. Damn shame.

    true, had also forgot about those, the damned was also great with patrica 'gun club morrison on bass, i remember asking her if eldritch from the sisters really was a twat, she would not comment. nice legs on her though. Cecil, that was also good.

  4. this isn't just the works / lava / kef just changing its name again then is it?

    sadly no, it should never have changed from glow 303, none of the people involved in running it at that time, myself, andy duggan, tez and finnie were consulted that it was gonna change to lava.

    at the time glow 303 really worked, we had a good balance and a great selection of entertainment, and i will never understand why it changed.

    as for the fecking chip machine, 8000 that cost, and it lasted what, about a month.

    far too many people to thank for all the great times and bad times.

    good and bad times were had by pretty much all of you

    regardless of what you think about me, how i ran the gigs, the venue or whatever, it is a venue that will be missed.

    best gigs and memories for me

    1. The UK subs (original line up) full stage invasion by the audience, nicky garrett climbing up on to the air ducting and lettng his guitar fall on charlie's head, charlie lying on the stage with blood seeping everywhere, 300 punks all shouting charlies dead.

    2. The first time the floor collapsed after the lost prophets and funeral for a friend in the space of three days.

    3. The Editors.

    4. Alex Kane (Antiproduct) with his nob out, spraying green spray paint on himself, the amps, the newly painted celling and then laughing at it.

    5. The First time King Prawn sold out the venue

    6. Capdowns two sell out shows

    7. almost getting into a fight with SOULWAX

    8. Grandmaster flash being a complete and utter dick

    9. Napalm death shaking the glasses on the tables in the upstairs bar whilst soundchecking

    10. walking into the dressing room outside and catching someone giving head to someone we all pretty much know.
