  1. This is an interesting idea, and I've been following this with interest to see who bites!!

    It would be so much work though - not just for the promoters, but the bands involved too! Many folk have moved away and moved on. Subsistence were mentioned, and as great as it would be to play another show, I certainly can't remember any of our songs having not played them in eight years!!! And James is the only one still living in Aberdeen. I imagine many of the bands of yesteryear would be in a similar position.

    I can still remember how to play one of Liber8's songs though!!!!!!

    Spot on man. I think half the battle is even getting bands to want to do this,nevermind getting them together. But i will try and see how get on. I think most people agree that it's a good idea. However executing it will be difficult.

  2. Can't see the Xcerts getting involved with a first time promoter or a lineup like like, maybe a Murray acoustic set or something but not full band.

    I'd probably go see this though, would be good to hear bands that are oft-referenced but before my gig-going time. Good luck! :up:

    Cheers man. Get involved :up:

    Is anyone still in contact with the Hotmangu boys? I used to see Sandy all the time and bump into Fish and Corn a fair bit, but its been a while.

  3. This sounded meaner than I meant it to. Sorry Crocker (friends with Joss, Holly, Michael etc...?)

    That will be me.Have we met? Naaa didn't sound mean. I'm actually expecting a tirade of abuse on the idea somewhere down the line.

    I used to post on these boards as 'Sludge' when i was younger. I dread to think of the nonsense i was pouring out back then.

  4. I think it will only take off if people are truly interested in it. And as i said. I couldn't possibly do this on my own. I'm trying to get this together because i genuinley think it has the potential to be an awesome night. A night i think a lot of people would like to go to.

    If anyone has any input atall it would be great to hear from you.

    The link is above for the facebook page i created.

  5. The X Certs and Deadloss still play don't they?

    Perhaps man. I wouldn't know about deadloss. Iv'e been out the loop and out the country for the best part of two and a half years now. You'd know better than i do. I think Brian would be good to have on board as is still active in the moorings and i would definatley need some help promoting it. Yeh i take your point on the X-Certs but i was just thinking they would be a great headliner if it was pulled off.

    As i said though. I'm brain-storming and trying to get people on board. Iv'e never put on a gig before.

  6. Good morning aberdeen-music!

    Recently i was thinking about how fun it would be to put on an old school gig consisting of bands that are no longer playing (perhaps with the odd exception)

    It's still in a very early stage and just now i'm just looking to create some sort of interest. I would love to hear from bands that are still connected and would like to be apart of it. It would also be great to hear from you guys.

    I have created a facebook page which you can join here -

    I'm not sure of posting links is breaking the rules so i apologise in advance.

    Thinking a one off gig in the Summer would be great.

    Popular bands mentioned so far (some with a good chance of forming for this if the interest is enough) Quik - Sirius - Liber8 - Black Atom - Deadloss Superstar.

    Also i think it would be great to get the X-Certs on board.

    Get invovlved folks!

    All the best.

  7. There's posters up in my office today. Dunno what the areas coming too, first a stolen dog and just on Wednesday there was an attempted murder (or zombie attack) in Nellfield Graveyard.

    Just thinking, doesn't the Holburn Bar have CCTV on it's front door? Might have seen something.

    Thats a good shout.The Holburn bar is bound to have seen something.

  8. What did you think the shift keys were for? Just special characters?

    Honestly never taken that much notice. Completley in the habit of using caps lock so i doubt that'll change. Learn something new everyday i guess! Regardless of how meaningless and retarded it may be....

  9. My new one is going to take a shit, pulling out my iPod and noticing the Wifi connected symbol, and having the over-whelming urge to go on myspace and say "Status: Taking a shit at work"

    What the fuck am I? 12?

    EDIT: And no, I didnt type out this post while taking a shit at work.

    You HAVEN'T updated your status whilst taking a shit???

  10. Are you fucking serious?

    Deadly.

    Im spewing. One of those things i guess.

    I'e - "You HAVEN'T seen the godfather??" or "You DON'T like ice cream??" Or something to that extent.....

    Its going to take me a while to adapt to using the shift since i've been using trusty caps lock for so fucking long.

  11. I had the mussels starter (awesome) and the grilled chicken main. When it said on the menu the chicken was served on a bed of spaghetti I had a mental image ot a small lump of spaghetti the same size as the chicken, but it looked like it was the same spaghetti portion as the spaghetti mains looked like! So filling, very tasty and a great price.

    Not quite mate. We like to fill the plate in there :up:

    Well im pleased you enjoyed it. Tell your friends and head on back. You get a big party in and i'll see it you get a couple of freebies.

  12. Sorry, that's Neil territory only I'm afraid.

    Send him a PM and he'll get it sorted, though he's a busy guy so you might need to nudge him a few times.

    Do your folks still own Pappagallos? After 4 years of living round the corner I finally went in a few weeks ago. Really enjoyed it, will definitely go back.

    will do....

    Yeh man wev'e still got it. Really miss it in there. It really is my home away from home. Glad you enjoyed it! What you have?

  13. Got a good one at work at the moment.....

    The take away tickets have the customers name on them. When i shout out their name the whole restaurant just stares a whole through me like im talking a different language. I then get disgruntled,throw their food down and carry on with my very busy day. A waitress then shouts the name and straight away retard number 254 happily picks it up.

    REALLY pisses me off.

  14. Don't think Camie posts here anymore, can't remember seeing anything from him recently.

    But there's still a fair few users who have been around for few years.

    Welcome back.

    Cheers. You got the power to delete people? Theres a rollingcrock with an aol address i messed up with registering. And "sludge" if you remember? I don't weigh 42 stone and smoke 40 rollies a day anymore so i guess that account can go too....

    If you don't mind kind sir.

  15. crocker.....it has been a long time.....

    Indeed Milner. The last time i remember talking to you was at Blair's party on Jute Street years ago. Hammered Ash was going on about banging his sister, right in front of an angry Blair and i thought i was going to pass out with laughter.

  16. Aye aye folks!

    Im intrigued to hear from ghosts of Drakes and Lava past....

    I've not frequented these boards for a long time. Im wondering if anyone from a few years back still kicks around on here?

    Im hazarding a guess and saying "Camie" surely does.....

    Crocker.
