  1. New Amusements album's very good. Well worth checking out the gig if you're free.

    A lot more post-rocky/My Vitriol sounding than their last effort.

    i'm hacked off I can't go to this about this, as iv'e already decided to go to see the very wonderful ISAN with Tomcats in Tokyo @ Peacock Artspace.

  2. yes i received the message. hopefully going to make it down to this tomorrow night. what's the current situation regarding booze in this venue?

    i'm gutted i can't make this tomorrow but i'll be @ the Isan + Tomcats in Tokyo event in early November & a few other events there. The line up @ peacocks is as chilli has posted is fantastic.

    ref booze the couple of music events we have been to @ Peacocks have been really good & there is always a donation bar, which means the drinks are a good bit cheaper than other live music venues, even though there is a limited range available.

    have a good un tomorrow

  3. Me and my lady will be there. Can't get a hotel in Glasgow cos left it too late or get a bus or train home. Anyone driving back to Aberdeen with 2 spaces in their car? Anyone who can offer us a lift' date=' we'll love for ever and we'll give you petrol money. PM or leave a reply asap if you can help. ta kindly.[/quote']

    thats sounds strange, spend zillions seeing a band of has been tax exile pensioners who pay uk 1% tax, then you sleep rough................

  4. Fit time is first band on aboot?

    Are Mickelmass likely to be playing acousticy improvised set a la Damo Suzuki gig before he came on stage or droney ambient type set as displayed at Snafu a few months back? ?(

    i asked cello boy about this & he told me like all the best improvisors they have an outline idea of what they will play & improvise & develop around the idea. Their set before Damo Sazuki joined them was far more interesting & inventive & excellent. I look forward to seeing them again, especially with an Amps for Christ offshoot.

    Nice one

  5. They are playing the Doer Festival in Belgium as well which I'm off to next week so I'll defo watch them they are amazing.

    fantastic eclectic line-up @ Doer, makes uk festivals look like

    an irrelevent safe gravy train yet again

    hot tip for doer Les Georges Lenningrad & of course my old pals

    65days......

  6. Gareth Dickson and Belong were both very enjoyable. I'd have to say that Ariel Pink was one of the stranger performances I've ever seen. It was' date=' as has already been pointed out, what many would conventionally describe as 'shit'. But still, it was kind of punk in a strange sort of way. The bloke clearly doesn't think much of his audience - almost Mark E Smith like. Without actually being as good obviously. Still, I reckon that but for his arsing about trying to sort out the monitors, I was mostly entertained by what little he and his entourage played.[/quote']

    Gareth Dickson & Belong were better than enjoyable, they were excellent. As is normal for an Ariel Pink event, he courts controversy, however there is definate genius mixed in with the more eccentric antics & anybody that asks an audience up on the stage at the beginning of their set gets my vote. Shame the dancing Tom Lea didn't get up on stage & give us an impromptu solo with the

    female back up singers. I thought the tables & chairs were better in place than not having them, although maybe they could have been cleared back a bit before Ariel Pink took to the stage.

    Anyhow well done for getting these artists to Aberdeen
