By the way, we have a Facebook page and I have just added a 'review' bit to the page. Would be great if we could publish the review on there too. Not sure if you're on facebook, but if you are...have a look (I can't add the review myself) The Malpaso Gang- Tall Riders on the Lonesome Trail | Facebook cheers

Hey - great review, Graham, thanks very much!

If you want to support Peacock AND save the gardens from being concreted over - no trees, but flower pots on a wind swept square the size of the Red Square in Moscow :-( - please sign the petition and pass it on to your mates.

17 hippies - heimlich ane brun - spending time with morgan

The show is on until 28 March so plenty of time to go and have a look (but no free beers left unfortunately)

Yeah, I think I did see some folk coming out of the gallery with blue stains on their jackets ;-). I guess we should have put up a sign saying 'caution, wet paint'.... oh well...

Not sure if this thread is still alive but I love both gypsy music and jazz, not just guitar but ideally as many instruments added as possible. I'm a singer/songwriter myself and play guitar as well (rythm, not lead), and would be up for jamming if anyone is interested. Cheers! Nina

It was such a good opening night! Can't believe how many people turned up. Definitely one of the most colourful shows Peacock has had in years. For photos of the opening night & the show also see Flickr: Peacock Visual Arts / Printmaking's Photostream

If you ever need inspiration for a gig poster, now's your chance!!! Canadian designer duo and musicians Seripop are in Aberdeen to show a retrospective of seven years of printing together. They're best known for their record covers and gig posters and have done work for Arcade Fire, Queens of the Stone age and their own band Aids Wolf. For their Aberdeen show they literally covered Peacock's walls top to bottom in psychedelic posters. The show is opening tonight (Friday 13 February) at 6pm at Peacocks and is on show until 28 March. They'll be selling some of their unique posters as well tonight.

Fit yer sayin'? Me, boss? Beanbags ahoy, but what if we end up with a snoring audience ....

Hi there, I've been singing in a ska band myself and would like to be in one again, but only if it is the old-school Jamaican type ska (laid back, with lots of reggae influences). Any chance of that? And would you know any brass players? Cheers, Nina
