There is a band from Glasgow called Cavalcades.

Is there? I've been looking about, I found a band called The Cavalcade in Preston and some acoustic guy in New Zealand, but nothing else..

good thing it was on box office, since every other ticket site has imploded. that half 9 start was a trickster though, purchasing tickets mid-lecture is an odd experience.

I don't think there's going to be much worry of them selling out, since the Lemon Tree date isn't showing up on any of the usual ticket sites..guessing it's exclusive to the Box Office site?

got mine this afternoon, was surprised that the presales hadn't sold out by about lunchtime..

looking at what nine inch nails and jane's addiction did last year [big gigs + festivals together] i get the feeling there's a good chance that it'll be one of the other bands playing reading/leeds...i'm hoping for weezer, since they've toured together a bit before..could just be wishful thinking though.

yasssss!

twilight sad AND take a worm for a walk week!? oh lord, this is going to be a good one.

i was too busy getting pished on vodka and cherryade like a classy soul to attend.

when do winners get announced?

right, i've stayed an outsider on this beforehand, bit of dissing of my band doesn't really affect me, any sane person knows that not everyone on the planet likes the same thing, its just something you deal with.

but i have realised tonight that this whole thread is not just about bands, but has become a personal matter, for reasons i cannot understand.

i'd just like to say how childish this whole thing is, its beyond a joke.

certain people's behaiviour in a certain club tonight proved to me that people can no longer appreciate criticism.

i took the time to listen to the songs linked, and i feel that they are cliched, show no forward movement, and are just generally dull. but that's just my opinion. the punk scene has moved forward a lot in the past ten years, even the pop punk scene.

my opinions are not a dig at anyone, simply my opinion.

and i'm man enough to deal with anyone disliking my band, i don't expect everyone to like it.

sorry about the essay post, i just don't get how people can be so uptight about opinions, i mean, everyone's got one, surely your own view upon yourself is what matters, not what anyone else thinks?

ps certain people need to grow up.

amazing gig, vessels were on top form, as were asiwyfa, both of them were tight as bits and just magic.

just a pity that the oceansize setlist wasn't that great, only one song from frames, really? also they really didn't seem into it at all..

Its cooler than your shite band.

And its how my voice comes out.

so shut the fuck up you fucking cunt.

and at least im playing something different to aberdeens' boring hardcore scene, which at the moment is saturated with wannabees, who spend all day on myspace seeing who has more tattoos.

look at me! I can play a beatdown!

that means im clearly more talented than anyone else on this forum.

arrogant cunt.

plus i saw your band, and they sucked dick live.

im not saying were good live, i never have - all im saying is you suck.

umm..we're really nothing to do with the hardcore scene, that comparison is pretty funny.

and also, we didn't suck dick, we played music, there's quite a difference.

huw, cheers! yeah i know we're kinda uninspired with the delivery and such, we're just dipping our toes into the whole idea of using vocals, hopefully they'll improve in time!

ps i forgot how funny this forum can be :]

nooooooooooooooooo!

asiwyfa ftw

awh whiiit?

i was proper looking forward to this, but damn flu got the better of me

anyone know set times?

I like to hear an honest opinion, thanks Huw.

I take it the sound engineering wasn't too hot?

Despite a string breakage (...and half arsed attempt at improvising the rest of the tune using two strings) we enjoyed ourselves!

Cheers to everyone who came along and to Iname for asking us up, we want to play Aberdeen more often!!!

The bands were great tonight, Iname were outstanding!

thanks man :]

i think craig did an alright job last night, tunnel 2 is normally pretty difficult to get a good sound out of, did the best with what he had

really enjoyed the night, still a bit shocked that my old man actually enjoyed y change costume...i mean he normally listens to the shadows.

this thursday :]

also liam i'm sure ben [and any of the rest of us if you need us ] will be cool for that

THE NUMBER 12 LOOKS LIKE YOU IN ABERDEEN!? yyayayayaaayayayayayayayayayayayaaaaa

ohhh i couldn't agree more...YEARS i have waited to see them.

not at all....

I'm interested in the gamecube......any idea what games you have for it?
