  1. What's yr budget, if you don't mind me asking?
  2. Not quite sure on running order yet, but first band'll be on around 8.15-8.30 !
  3. Geez, so cynical! No idea if it's better than the unsigned guide, I've not had a proper read through either! Google is fine if you know what you know the name of the company you're looking for, but if you're looking for something a little more vague like "recording studio in the UK," it's good to have a researched list!
  4. Sure, I know of a lot of friends' bands who have gone on tour with bands, playing venues ranging in size from The Tunnels to The Music Hall and even bigger. None of these were support-slots-for-hire. Obviously, I don't know every single band in the world's workings, but I think it's fairly safe to say that paying-to-support is in the minority, and certainly not anywhere near 90%. It's probably even safer to say that this type of deal is only prevalent in 'pop' tours (I'm talking about X Factor, boy bands, etc...) and package tours. In the vast majority of cases, support will be decided on one or a number of the following; - member(s) of headline band like/know support band personally. - member(s) of headline band's management, booking agency, etc, like/know band personally. - support band is on same record label / management company / booking agency as headline band. - headline band can't quite sell out venues on their own, and so choose support band (at least partly) on the knowledge that they will be able to bring in 50 or so people on the strength of their name alone. Right now, record companies do not have enough money to provide tour support for their bands, let alone pay to even do the tour in the first place!!!
  5. This Thursday! DANANANANAYKROYD! KUDA! CARSON WELLS! TEENAGE LUST / COPY HAHO DJs! DOORS 7.30pm! CHEAP ADVANCE TICKETS FROM WeGotTickets - Your Online Box Office - TEENAGE LUST CLUB: DANANANANAYKROYD !
  6. I'm still confused! In the game you play Russians gunning down an airport full of (lots of different types of) people!
  7. Brown people? What are you talking about?
  8. Just watched my brother play through this part of the game, and it's a mere smudge on anything that you'll have done in GTA, etc...
  9. There are two of them, they have a live drummer and second guitarist though.
  10. nothing like No Age at all!!! Maybe some aesthetics (self-recording, two piece, etc...), but certainly not musically!
  11. does it have the previously mentioned hot girls?
  12. Jim O'Rourke - The Visitor Nirvana - Live At Reading CD/DVD Girls - Album Male Bonding / Eat Skull split 7" two Gummy Stumps 7"s
  13. I kinda like what they've done with it - if you have a s/t debut then people will end up referring to it as "the (band name) album" anyway. Another good thing about this band - the album artwork features photographs of hot girls. Which is a lot better than bearded indie rock types as per usual...
  14. the name of the band is GIRLS and their debut album is called 'Album'
  15. argh, one of my pet hates! What's the point!
  16. Where are you getting 90% from?
  17. I like their name! Also really like the album (though it is pretty overhyped but that's not their fault). And the songwriter in the band WAS a member of a cult!
  18. Have they tried pressing the button in the lift marked 'G' for 'Ground Floor' ? Or even any of the other buttons?
