  1. Out of genuine interest (and not sour grapes) what criteria makes the process and how do the judges make their decisions for t-break? i wonder how it gets discussed coz if they have 1000 cds to get through im thinking it must be a nightmare! does anyone know?

    im just curious and not taking the piss at all.how is it done?

    do they try and put through a balance of styles? like in the last two years from listening to the show, theyve had a heap of guitar bands and then a random hip hop act thrown in towards the end.theres also a distinct lack of solo artists get through but then maybe these types of people just havent been applying much. Last year there seemed like a lot of samey bands but this year was much more varied.

    Id like to think that the location of a band has no bearing on a decision and that its down to the quality of the demos musicality i.e - songs. Aberdeens scene is really good and has improved massively in the last few years (in my opinion, just take the last two weeks gig roster bonnie prince billy, hope of the states, morrisey, brakes, forward russia, son of dave and i like trains all in the same week and now tryptich!). Maybe people at T dont know that weve actually got a tidy wee scene going on! Just my opinion tho.

    Anyway,

    Its a shame no other bands from Aberdeen got through (from the ones I know, enough applied) coz itd be good exposure but massive well done to Project:Ven Hell for getting through and good luck for the heats.

    Also, a band who got through that we played with in 13th Note last week called Attic Lights are playing Gonorth, everyone should go see them coz theyre damn good harmonies and nice folk to match!

  9. yo

    right, very very sorry

    anyone who has been in touch about the room, i apologise greatly. Id like to have time to call you all individually but seeing as you all got hold of me through ab music.this is much easier and cheaper.

    the room is no longer available for viewing or rental. it is out of my hands but shore porters have decided to close the room down as of next week.apparently it is a knock on effect from a couple of previous incidents but also after the neighbouring rooms shutdown from environmental health last week.

    between me advertising for spaces to you lovely people 2 weeks ago and today, ive had nothing but grief from the owners of the lock up and shore porters about various things and its now at a conclusion.the room is gone.im only looking after it as a favour and its not my desicion to close.

    hence the delay in letting bands view the room in the last week. ive been waiting to see what the situation is before letting anyone get hopes up after viewing.

    really sorry for this especially to chris, davina, jamie and anyone else whos been in touch and sorry for not informing sooner but the band and myself have been really busy this week let alone uni and general life!!

    im as mad as anyone as we are affected also

    if there is a change in the situation the people who got in touch will be the first to know

  10. rakes tonight

    also, the afterparty is at snafu with us dirty hearts club djs spinning the tunes till 2am. its free entry with a ticket stub and 2 a pint!

    not entirely sure the rakes will atend although they have been informed and there was talk of it.will see what happens on the night.

    anyway, should be a good one either way.

  11. practice room

    right, sorry for delay as ive had no email access.

    ive written down the contact details for all bands whove been in touch and will be in touch to arrange a viewing with them all.

    unfortunately, im pretty tied up this wknd (in newcastle from fri) so itll be next week (which is also a busy week but itll be fine) before i can let anyone see the room and give it proper time.

    anyway, you will all be contacted before i go away on fri to answer any queries and arrange a viewing slot

    cheers for all posts

    i have around 5/6 bands interested so needless to say, people can stop PMing me if they havent already done so

    cheers again
