Guest PoR Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 Who decided on the cause?The show was called by Edinburgh Chiapas Solidarity, and, as well as raise much needed funds for a worthy cause - to fund the construction of a health clinic in the autonomous municipality of 'Febrero de 16', it is hoped that it will also provide an opportunity to explore the possibilities in setting up a solidarity group here in Aberdeen.

Alan Cynic Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 Well, I learned a lot from the film, which I suppose was one of the main points of the evening, but I also learned...1) Hog is indeed God, but Kirk and Scorge are archangels in attendance!2) Jake is a hairy God, and vengeance must indeed be hos!3) Sidca as a duo are fascinatingly excellent...I would have bought a CD of their set, if they had switched their recorder on4) Joe Ely & the Catnips ROCK!!! They were also very handsome!5) the Videos are SEX personified (although the bass player's kilt wasn't to my personal tastes). I will now worship Lester Burnham from afar 6) the Kitchen Cynics shouldn't rehearse with 3 members, and actually play with 2 7) Stewcat responds most excellently to record requests!!!!!!!!
