  1. yup, from Kilmarnock all the way to Ballantrae. The amount of times ive driven between Stranraer and Aberdeen this year I've got used to them. Thing is once you pass Ayr, the road is so shit you can never go faster than fifty because you're always trapped behind a lorry or an old fucker in a corsa who thinks the limit is fifty mph on every road. I hate driving home. Three and a half hours to Ayr, then the last leg of fifty miles should only take about forty-five minutes but it is such a shit road it usually takes an hour and a half. plus the driving ability in South Ayrshire/Dumfries and Galloway takes a total dive from the rest of the country

  2. its somthing we're trying to do with Underflow in the Tunnels, turn it into a Kazoo. Though people just come, see the band they want to see then fuck off. Which pisses me off because if your gonna pay three quid you might as well stay and see the full set. Even bands leave after they've played which is slightly inconsiderate to the other bands on the bill. Personally I would love to pay three quid, watch a bunch of bands and then stay and have a bit of a dance or listen to Djs playing for the rest of the night. People in general dont care enough for such a venue to work up here.

  3. Sounds like that warehouse that Franz Ferdinand co-opted for gigs in the early days. What was it called? Aberdeen is too small and isolated to have it's own movement like this' date=' so we follow others. It doesn't bother me, someone has to[/quote']

    The Chateau. The Glasgow Barfly also used to hold a night called Kazoo, which was run by Al Kapranos and they djed with indie stuff and local bands Demos and had guest bands, undiscovered like, Belle and Seb played their first gig there. I think its started up again. Its not difficult. Just Aberdeen Music Scene is way to snobby and cliquey. Which is its own worst enemy really

  4. what we need is one REALLY BIG bedroom, with an oven baking cakes, and a big stereo turned really low playing the best in Arab Strap b-sides. In fact not b-sides, but demos that Aiden Moffat thought were shit but the studio inde geek picked off the floor and made them tapes. And no CD player, just a cassette deck, one of the old eighties ones that you used to plug into your spectrum. and loads of posters on the walls, and maybe a cabinet full of recorded from tv tapes of eightiens sit coms and cartoons.

  5. a fucking refrigerated lorry in the car park across from my house, every time i start nodding off it blares itself into action. That and the high speed ferry sitting in the peir making its noises all fucking night. And the boy fucking racers flying around sed car park and talking in their fucking annoying yokal accents really loud trying to sound intelligent and opinionated around their eqiually no brainer mates and slapper lassies who hang around them.

    That is why i am posting at this ungodly hour. Plus i have to drive back to aberdeen in the morning with probably half an hour's sleep under my belt. I am not going to be the happiest bunnie tomorrow.

  6. cause really' date=' contacting u or whatever is such a hassle for what it is worth...[/quote']

    Well if it's not worth the hassle then its not worth going. From what I see Flash is being more than genrous with the concessions he's making. not really wise to look a gift horse in the mouth. In fact i'd say it was bare faced cheek.
