Vantage Point play The Moorings bar alongside SAZ this Saturday night.

So anyone wanting a night of traditional Heavy Metal then come along for some screaming vocals and shredding guitar solo's!

What others have said about Vantage Point:

Vantage Point play no frills, straight down the line, old school heavy metal, complete with falsetto wailing, thumping basslines and riffs as heavy as concrete boots. Bassist and singer Murray has that classic Biff Byford combination of thunking bass and triumphant metal arm gestures down to a T, whilst the guitarists content themselves with striking axeman poses in the background. In fact never before have I seen quite so much heavy metal posturing squeezed into such a tiny space. www.elainemacintyre.net

"From the chunky riffing of Motor Man, which actually features the words pedal to the metal through the mid-tempo, melodic, Save Me onto the full blown Priest like histrionics of High Plains Drifter, I enjoyed every moment."www.metaluk.co.uk

I think that proved the theory that the fewer people that participate in a gig thread' date=' the busier it will be LOL.

Weren't Steely Glint something else though... WOW![/quote']

Totally, I was completely blown away by Steely Glint, didn't expect that standard of musicianship at all!!!

Was a great ggi, Firebrand were excellent as well, as always. Got their new CD and it rocks.

Hopefully we will be back up playing at the Moorings again sometime soon.

Cheers.

Bit late notice, but just to say that Edinburgh Metal band will be back at the Moorings this weekend. They will be playing their usual traditional metal, influenced by Maiden and Priest. Expect screaming vocals and shredding guitar solo's and a lot shapes being thrown!!!

Just wanted to say a quick thanks to everyone that came along. We had a great time and hope you did also, hopefully it will not be long until we are up rocking the Moorings again.

Cheers.

I had a little listen to 'Sail On' and reckon it sounds pretty much like a Led Zeppelin sound. This should be pretty good.

Cheers for that, hope you can get down to the Moorings in order to hear it played live.

We're looking forward to it

We are looking forward to it as well.

I take it is the same as last time in that the back line is provided?

Edinburgh's Vantage Point return to the Moorings at the end of the month for another set of their Maiden / Priest influenced Metal.

So to hear some screaming guitar solo's and plenty whailing vocals get along to the Moorings on Friday the 25th of November.

Visit www.vantage-point.info for more details or our myspace site to hear our latest recordings.

Vantage Point were fuckin awesome. Please have them back again. I particularily liked the second last tune what is it's title?

Well I am pleased to say that we will be playing at the Moorings again on the 26th of November - am looking forward to it.

Depends as we finished with two songs played together, which was our own song, Save Me and the only cover we do, Priest's Hell Bent For Leather.

But I suspect you mean the song before that, as you asked us whether it was our own song after we played it, that was, Just When I Wasn't Lookin. Let us know how well the recording of it turned out.

Cheers.

Gig is this Saturday for anyone into Metal up in Aberdeen!!

Vantage Point are first band on at 8.30.

Cheers.

Alright,

I actually already posted about this gig in the Moorings section. But figured that people might look in this forum a bit more.

So will just mention that my band, Vantage Point, are playing at the Moorings this coming Saturday, 16th of July. We are from Edinburgh and are basically a traditional Metal band, influenced by the likes of Priest and Maiden. You can find out more at our website and you can hear our songs from our myspace

Alright,

See you Saturday,

Cheers.

Bombskare's singer/guitarist Murray will be back in Aberdeen playing in his metal band, Vantage Point, on Saturday teh 16th at the Moorings. Worth seeing if you have seen Bombskare just to contrast his performance!!

My band, Vantage Point are playing the Moorings in a few weeks. It is our first gig in Aberdeen, so obviously not many people will know anything about us. So to hopefully get some people interested I am offering a free two track CD to anyone that wants one. Just send me an e:mail at, admin@vantage-point.info and I will get one sent up to you.

We are from Edinburgh and are basically a traditional Metal band, influenced by the likes of Priest and Maiden. You can find out more at ourwebsite and you can hear our songs from our myspace site if you would prefer to download as opposed to getting a CD.
