How's progress with this venue?

Yes, just saw the date and thought `shite, I've missed that somehow`.

All is well again.

This will be good.

Good work imp folk.

I enjoyed that Dr Feelgood/Wilko Johnson documentary on BBC4 a few weeks ago.

Playing The Lemon Tree very soon, the patter might well be as good as the choons.

One of the best threads on A-M in my humble. The majority of you coonts are far too young though.

Yours, Depressed of Aberdeenshire.

I often play a `guess the local support` game in my head. But I never get it right, ever. So I won't suggest The Lorelei.

This sounds exactly like something I've been looking for but not sure how keen Aberdeen based gig-goers are to travel oot to Turra.

*strokes beard and ponders*

Would Bruce Millers have survived had they relocated to Union Square?

Aberdeen loves a shopping mall.

Sat the 22nd I believe fella.

Does anyone know where I can download a free movie countdown like this:

(or is there any online youtube ripper that still works?)

I think you want the latest version of youtube downloader K.

Some good discussion on this thread. Having seen a fair bit of the Sound City stage performers at Rockness I'd say that quite a few acts who have showcased would not have looked out of place on it and I'll include Crooked Little Vein in that. Apart from the obvious (a bands sound, originality, even their following) I think their professionalism and probably experience would count too. Pretty poor show to have endless "banter" with less than 10% of the crowd who know who or what a band is commenting on when all people do is hear you play. Lose the ten minutes of bullshit speak and get another song in there.

I'm quite looking forward to see who gets chosen in the end, there's a few local bands who can pull a crowd at any time so they're probably in with a shout but also acoustic types (Fox, Richards, etc) who will also hold their own on a festival stage. I cant help thinking that it'd be great if one of our local bands got to open the main stage though, how good would it be to see a crowd in front of the main stage (unlike Rockness) on both days from the word go. Stanley on a sunny afternoon to a large festie crowd? How good would that be? Or Tijuana, The Lorelei, Haho, and so on.

Keep the local stage a decent distance any from the others so there is no clash of sound, make it clear to attendees who is on, and when (a board outside the tent that can be updated if things fall behind or whatever) and you'll be doing well.

The (local-ish) Sound City Stage at Rockness came in for a fair bit of criticism during and after the event. Anyone else there think it could have been run a lot better?

Who the FUCK does your ace posters min?

ps another good night at the MB just past.

Who are the support tonight?

Who is the support for tomorrow?

For what its worth I really enjoyed this, for one that's so used to seeing acts stick rigidly to a set list nowadays I genuinely enjoyed something a bit more random, but also genius-like in places. Well done imp. Also I thought the atmosphere in the BL was superb.

Have to say I really enjoyed this.

Sure did, been thinking it over. I'll pm you later.

Probably more than I can afford right now but how much do you want for the flash and camera bag?

Just checking its 8.30 doors for this? (quite late for a LT gig!). First band on the back o' nine?

I believe that Glassman are playing this gig.

I always wondered how KCHGH was pronounced, now I know I can die happily.
