I'm going. I haven't got tickets yet but i'm just gonna buy them at the door. Their song "oh yeah" is really catchy - i've been singing it all day. Dunno about the support...
Hi,
Tickets are selling quite quickly, so i'd advise getting tickets beforehand, box office is open until 6pm and the number is 01224 642230.
Should be a good one, support is Succioperro and Killer Angels,
Have a good night.

Rootin Aboot: Th' Legendary Shack*Shakers, Neck
Friday 08 April 2005 - Caf
Tickets 10 (6.75 concessions & regulars)
Doors Open: 8pm
Show Starts: 9pm
Something a little different for Rootin Aboot as we present a night of roots music from the margins with a definite outlaw worldview. Headliners Th' Legendary Shack*Shakers are one of the world's greatest live bands and they're ably supported by paddypunkers Neck.
Th Legendary Shack*Shakers are widely acclaimed as one of the finest live experiences in the US. Led by demented singer/harmonica player Colonel JD Wilkes they have succeeded in melding the rural, agri-dustrial rhythms of America's puritan work ethic, the intensity of gutbucket blues, the dark underbelly of country and even the madcap oompah of polka.
Over the last five years, London-Irish band Neck have firmly established themselves as a leading force in the folk-punk scene, their irrepressible psycho-ceilidh sound marking them out as transatlantic cousins of Flogging Molly and Dropkick Murphys. The 6-piece band combines the swirling abandon of traditional Irish music (fiddle, tin-whistle, banjo and uilleann pipes) with the rip-roaring electric guitar, bass & drums of a full-on punk band. All topped-off with the raucous, passionate vocals of song-smith Leeson O'Keeffe formerly of Shane MacGowan's Popes.

Rodrigo Y Gabriela
Wednesday 9th March The Lemon Tree
Tickets 7.50 (5 concessions & regulars)
Doors Open: 7pm
Show Starts: 7.30pm
Rodrigo y Gabriela have been winning over crowds and critics alike with their fiery fusion of latin, jazz, gypsy and flamenco with heavy metal touches. The Mexican duo have become a major hit in their adopted home of Ireland in the past two years and are now well en route to conquering the rest of the world.Their barnstorming performance at Rootin Aboot last year was a thrilling showcase of their frightening virtuosity, sheer showmanship and sly musical humour.
"Gobsmackingly proficient and inventive" Time Out
"They're not jazz guitarists, yet they do play jazz standards. They're not rock guitarists, yet they can play heavy metal, and they're not Mexican folk or flamenco guitarists, though Latin rhythms form the crucible of their sound." Sunday Times

If anyone has any spare tickets' date=' or is willing to sell there tickets (two would be nice), I would be more than interested in purchasing them.
Can I also say that the advertising was rubbish. In that nothing was included in the lemon tree emails until after the tickets were sold out. What therefor is the point in being a member.
Email : [email']cs01eg@csd.abdn.ac.uk
Hi Euan,
I'd just like to point out that it was in the emailout, which came out the same day as the show went on sale. It was also put up on this very site.
There's really not a lot else can be done with a show which sells out that quickly.
It's a long shot, but if you give our box office a call, they could put your name down for any tickets which come back to us from people buying too many etc. It's worth a try.
Cheers, and hope you get your hands on some tickets,
Box Office: 01224 642230.

El Presidente: plus support Girl Said No & Eric Euan
Sunday 17 April
The Lemon Tree
Tickets 6 (4 concessions & regulars)
Doors Open: 8pm
Show Starts: 8.30pm
Box Office: 01224 642230
"El Presidente is composed of some very unusual characters - imagine the Royal Tenenbaums as a rock'n'roll band, only we have great songs and some sort of sartorial sensibilities!"
Whilst the enigmatic figure that is El Presidente is the epitome of perpetual movement, constantly endeavouring to avoid the glare of publicity and the sinister intentions of his opponents and enemies, he does, on occasion, decide to grace us, his followers, with some carefully chosen words of wisdom:
"In The Republic, resources were very limited. I was restricted to what was available. The songs always evolved from an awesome drum loop or a dirty bass groove. From there, the musical cauldron started to bubble...."
This is El Presidente revealing how the foundations for his musical career were laid. He found that he was constantly buzzing with fresh and original ideas, unsure of how to channel them creatively whilst struggling with the political complexities of running His Republic.
"I grew up with black market copies of Led Zeppelin, The Beach Boys, T Rex and Sly Stone. This music was banned in our house. So I locked myself away with my brother in an underground resistance shelter and listened to these records, while trying to find our own musical direction. Before long, my brother and I found we had written a bunch of fantastic songs in a really short space of time. The oppressive climate we had been forced to work under had seemed to fuel our creativity and we were really pleased with what we had produced.
Following El Presidente's protracted revolution, the songs he had written found an outlet, a medium to bring the music to his loyal populace. A local DJ picked up the songs in The Republic who pumped them out on his state sanctioned frequency. The proles were enthralled.
"It's crucial to me that El Presidente are a great live band. I thrive on the energy and emotion required for a really good performance. Having done only two gigs though, we are obviously still finding our feet both as comrades and as performers. However, the start we've made is encouraging, and the signs for the future evolution of El Presidente are good."
"We are all excited by what we are achieving in the studio, but we want to make it even more exciting on stage, that's what we will be striving for in the coming weeks and months. As well as the sounds we create, this collective is about creating an aesthetic ethos on which to build our Movement."
