May not be near your hotel, but the Bon Accord is decent. Usually have about 10 ales on at a time.

I thought NV were excellent - a great band to watch and listen to. They were very tight and great vocals throughout.

Gotta agree with the comments about the chat though - really had to listen hard during quieter songs like Enola Gay to try and pick them out above the crowd noise. Just don't get why people pay that money and then talk all the way through the bands - there was a group in front of us who seemed to spend 90% of the gig chatting and facing away from the stage?!?!

Also, for the second time in a week I almost had a trainer pulled off my foot by the carpet as I tried to move away from the bar at Moshulu!

Is this definitely happening? Nothing about it on Mayhem's site, and the site that Moshulu's website links to is not the official Mayhem site???

Thats exactly what it was lackin i think...i just read the paper...they say the high profile gigs were profitable an the local gigs were a loss...

They definatly didnt make a loss on my night...we got ripped off big time...

Deffo has to reopen under new management...would the council sell it? Lets chip in...PLAN!

I would chip in, but I'm now the best part of a 100 quid out of pocket as I've got pairs of tickets for 3 gigs at the Lemon Tree!!!

Ticket now sold!

1 x standing ticket available for Marilyn Manson at Braehead Arena this Saturday (8 December).

I think the face value was 25, but would sell for 20.

PM details if interested.

Cheers

For sale - 1 x ticket for Heaven and Hell at the Glasgow SEC on Tuesday 6 November.

If anyone's interested, drop me a PM.

Cheers

I managed to get tickets on ticketweb, but date says 15 September not the 19th which is what FF have on their website????

Moshulu - Sun 19th August!

Woo hoo!!!

Summertime - Jazzy Jeff and Fresh Prince.

I'm going to drive down - probably stop off at my mates down south for a couple of nights to break up the journey a bit.

Aye, according to the ad - it's tickets on-sale 9am on Friday.

Gotta be Cullen Skink.

Surprised she's playing Aberdeen, but not complaining. Saw her in Glasgow on her last tour and she was very good.

Dio and Queensryche at the Capitol, think it was in '84.

Great band - would definitely go and see them.

Excellent news - just phoned to book my ticket!!

Just back from buying Show Your Bones by Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and so far it's very good!

Yeah, I read about this recently too - Snoop Dogg is in it as well. Here's some info:

The pair, along with Snoop Dogg, will lend their voices to the upcoming live action/computer-animated fantasy film 'Arthur And The Minimoys', which is based on the popular French children's books by film-maker Luc Besson.

According to Reuters, the story follows ten-year-old Arthur, played by 'Charlie And The Chocolate Factory''s Freddy Highmore, who tries to save the home of his grandmother (Mia Farrow) by searching for his grandfather's treasure in the land of the tiny Minimoys.

There he finds Princess Selenia (Madonna) and Max (Snoop Dogg), who travel with him to a city ruled by the evil Malthazar (Bowie).

The film has been directed by Besson, who has spent over three years working on it.

Pistolas - Listen Listen EP

We Start Fires - Hot Metal CD Single

Howling Bells - Wishing Stone CDS

Rammstein - Reise, Reise

Naio Ssaion - Out Loud

Yeah, the snow is a real pain in the arse! I was going to head down for this as they've been great both times I've seen them before and the new album is good.

Maybe, there will be a big thaw before Friday........

I got The Like and Giant Drag albums on import at the end of last year, and they're both very good. The Like would probably be my favourite of the two though - it's definitely the one I've listened to most.

Looks like Lacuna Coil, InMe, HateBreed and Within Temptation have been added now. Rumours about Motley Crue playing as well!

Old: Master of Puppets - Metallica. It's been a favourite since it came out, and I still isten to it on a regular basis.

New: The Like - Are you Thinking What I'm Thinking, or Giant Drag - Hearts and Unicorns. I've had them both on import for a few months now, and they're both great albums.

Borrowed: Have borrowed anything for ages, the last thing was the Mariam and Amadou album - didn't want to keep it though!

Poo: Chaimira by Chaimira. Bought it when it came out, but just can't get into it.

Newcastle dismiss manager Souness

Newcastle have announced that Graeme Souness' contract has been terminated with immediate effect.

The Magpies have won only one point in six Premiership matches and are only six points above the relegation zone.

A statement on the club's website read: "The employment of Graeme Souness has been terminated with immediate effect.

"And an announcement will be made shortly regarding transitional arrangements pending the appointment of a new team manager."

Souness took charge of Newcastle in September 2004 after Bobby Robson was sacked.
