    Obviously, we're well chuffed with this, and we'll be out to impress on the whole tour, but it'd be awesome to have a busy night in Aberdeen, so if you want tickets, or want to street team for us, help us out, sell tickets for us, then drop me a PM.

    Cheers, Jamesy

  2. but it still smacks of the cliched Atreyu/Killswitch Engage song structure and sound. .

    Hey. Thanks for the comments, I appreciate you taking the time to have a listen and comment. However, from our point of view, for a song that's only 4 and a half minutes long, the only common denominator in it is the pre-chorus/chorus combination, with the rest of the song having complex time signatures and varying parts ahoy, which in our book adds a progressive edge. We've got some more new stuff coming, so keep an eye out, perhaps it'll become more obvious with that..! Thanks again.

  4. Cut the mustard in terms of those who decide, not in my opinion silly.

    The point that you're all missing is that the bands you're talking about are playing a young band showcase, that's been billed to the people coming up for GoNorth as what'll be coming from Aberdeen in coming years, not what we have to showcase at the moment...Gone2Far, The Desert Eagles and bands of that ilk..

  5. to be fair %80 of that post was utter shite.

    Wait a minute...Aren't you the drummer in Baby Karma? Another band Stuart manages?

    Ching ching. Must try harder.

    Ever thought that Jo never made it in because of what she's achieved so far? If she's done so much already, then what's the point in having her involved?

  6. Well lets be honest the whole things been turned into such a joke this year' date=' it's battle of the favourites, not the best, whats the point.

    Cheers

    Somebody still sulking because none of the acts he manges cut the mustard? ;)

    The Aberdeen music scene isn't all about you y'know, so stop your whining!

    Which favourites are playing, and who are they favourites of? We're playing because we put in demos and bios and have our shit together, we got asked to play by Robert Hicks, who I've never met and certainly doesn't know us, the only person involved we know is Dave Stewart at the Foyer, and the only reason we know each other is because I went to him for some advice, and very valuable it was too, another resource open to all that's ignored. GoNorth is anything but a joke, it's just a shame that people don't capitalise on it..
