Now it's 99, not Drummonds. bit of a wierd one that by all accounts. Andy was telling me about that when I saw last time.

Each and every Tuesday sit back and relax to some of Aberdeens finest acoustic acts with a cocktail in your hand and a smile on your face.

Full line ups here: Ruby Tuesday @ 99

I'll also post up here to keep you in the loop.

Mata ne,

Kabuki

Well it was the big JC's (Johhny Cash that is) birthday yesterday. So join us in Cafe Drummond tomorrow as we celebrate his b/day.

All the acts will be doing their own spin on Johnny Cash's tunes as well as chucking in a few of their own.

Last year there was well over 300 folk in attendance so I'd come down early.

Slight problemo with the gig. Des Jure have split up. Internal problems with the singer and they're not honouring any of the pre-booked gigs. C'est la vie.

Line up for the night is now.

Reasons Are Red (Onstage about 11ish)

The Phoenix Band (Onstage about 10ish)

Junkdust (Onstage bout 9)

Apologies for this.

We also play The Tunnels on 8th December.

Who you guys playing with on the 8th?

hate to break it to you' date=' but there has already a band called Orchid (a widely recognised and somewhat legendary hardcore act).[/quote']

Yeah, there's actually two. I believe one of them is Norwegian. Might be wrong.

But that's musicians for you. Not a lot of imagination!

Just a quick #bumpity bump#

For those that don't know BTW; Dear John are a local industrial band that haven't played in ages. It's actually Calum the Drummonds sound engineers band and they got reviewed in Metal Hammer last month. So any musos that want to see how sound techies get on on stage should come along. They're on first.

Mata ne, Kabuki

Hey Stuart

Say hi to Jo for me. I'd be along, but I'm working with Radio Lucifer, Black Atom and Dear John at Drummonds tonight.
