Marc

Totally agree, they were amazing, def one of the highlights of the weekend and whoever didn't see them missed out.

Hey, ive been jammin down in jamaica the last 2 weeks and have had no contact with anyone who has a clue about music. Any interesting news? How was Glasto? Did Live 8 live up to its expectations, hows oasis tour going on? and are there any really cool bands been announced to play in aberdeen lately. Cheers.

mccartney is a hero, i lost a scene point for bigging him up on the live 8 thread, robbery!!!

Fuck Yeah!!

I saw the smiths v morrissey, i mean thats like two acts who are completely different

Just back just now. What a great gig, they have the roses down to a tee. The lead singer was well up for it and really got the crowd going. Probs the best tribute band ive seen and would def go and see them again. The setlist was good aswell. Anyone else see them?

I do it every year, get my hair cut in bout april then just b4 i go on holiday, usually july then grow it again til next april, give or take a few litlle trims. I hate the middle stage where its too long to style but not long enough to keep it down. Although i do notice that i pull alot more with short hair. Check us having conversations about hair

I don't think you can say that every single band are doing this to get a bigger fanbase. I don't really think paul mccartney is doing this so he sells more records. I have to agree with Damon and top marks for saying something and rejecting doing it because he believes its not for the right reasons. However i cant see any harm coming from this, nobody will come out worse from it. I dont think theres anything wrong with organising a gig full of the 'top bands' and having a good time about it.

Im going, havent got my tickets yet tho.

Fucking brilliant!!!

Cheers rob, always the first with the good news

when and where will tickets be sold?

Will def be going to this

yeah i would go just to see the cure and muse. wouldnt mind seeing paul mccartney either

yeah i know, keane are hardly political, and even if they were i wouldnt have them in my line up

whats the happy bus?

The Others with the Rakes and the Ludes. Not the best bands ive seen at the lemontree but was the best night. I think the others are really good live, especially liked the mini stage invasions and the on stage girl fight. The afterparty was a really good laugh aswell. Really looking forward to the complete stone roses

i started listening to the new album in the car today, im only on about track 8 but what i heard sounded really promosing. Def going to the lemon tree gig, what a great weekend, s&d on the friday and the complete stone roses on the sunday. Big up the lemontree
