Rachie Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 I missed out Deadloss - d'oh. For Brian's ability to drink, smoke and sing all in the same breath alone Especially when my 'cello nearly got one of the Drakes stools through it... Although it wouldn't have been funny if it had actually hit it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan G Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 The only 2 ("local") bands that have ever made me smile are: Black Atom (before I joined them) at a kef gig - where they were so amazing and the songs were so catchy and get-into-able that I was grinning for the whole set.And X-certs, at the tunnels the other day. I have never ever before watched an Aberdeen band and just thought that they should be doing that on a big stage across the Uk. But the x-certs were just amazing...and I'm not even really into the sort of music they are playing. I really hope they 'make it' because they have everything it takes to be a pro successful band. Good luck to them.(actually Alyssa's Wish played a few gigs when I thought they really should have been known on an national level) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Cynic Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Lots of bands cause me good emotional upheaval (eg Delicate Awol the other night, Kathryn Sawers every gig, Sidca, the Euan etc), but for smileification (?) I'd second Spike Pile Driver, Project Ven-Hell and Sidca, plus add the Downroads :]edited to add Hooker's Green and Staccato Set.....both make me happy.....did anybody else see the Staccato Set one when Simon Gall was on keyboards, translating the song in to bad German???

Guest Scorge Spike Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Alan Cynic - the only person who has kept me laughing for the entire duration of a song. Genuis.Failing that, I'd say Risactonia usually prompt a smile, probably the odd erection.I also concur with Joe on FesTr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hog Posted April 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Alan Cynic, of course, goes with out saying really. Excellent songs, excellent bantor.I spelt banter wrongly intentionally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
