Camie Posted May 31, 2005 Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 Yes. Does it really matter if AKA the Fox played last year? This gig is just harmless fun. Some people need to realise that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just seems a pisstake by a lot of bitter bandsCheersStuart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mmm' date=' its all a bit of fun[/quote']I know Spike isnt bitter, I know you wouldnt have entered GoNorth but I also know tghat the Video's have gone on about how great GoNorth is in the past and therefore it all seems a bit hypocritical to me. I think it does make bands look bitter whether they are or not, I think if they ever get it all sorted out and done fairly (unlike this year) then it could be a great opportunity for local bands and to undermine it doesnt do anyone any good in the long run, thats all.I'm sure all the bands will have fun and be good, this is just how I feel about it.CheersStuart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hog Posted May 31, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 Posted by JesterIt' up to the bands to question the promoters, the Aberdeen scene would be a lot better off if certain promoters were stood up to. If bands wont stand their ground no-one will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

betamax Posted May 31, 2005 Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 I dont think it will undermine Go NorthExactly, when the organisers of Go Fuck realised there was a smaller festival with a similar name taking place earlier on the same week they did think about insisting that dates were changed in order to avoid confusion. The way they now see however, it is that GoNorth now makes an ideal ''support act'' to the main GoFuck event this Friday night, and the people behind GoFuck have kindly given permission for the organisers of GoNorth to continue with their low key midweek build up.I thought it was important to clarify that one.
