framheim Posted September 27, 2005 Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 there was a gig in the basement of a popular cafe in aberdeen a couple of years ago which the owners knew nothing about involving dedalus, masamune, and john cromar. someone else may have played but my memory's a bit hazy. it wasa bit stressful as the owner stayed right till the end to do some unexpected work and the organiser(who worked there at the time) frantically headed off gig goers before they banged on the door. then we had to load the equipment in dead fast once he'd gone. great gig though.obviously i'm cautious about naming the place as you never know who's reading these things.

PrincessHolly Posted September 27, 2005 Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 I had a gig in my living room for my leaving party when I moved up here from Hampshire. It was the best party ever, people still talk about it, we spent the evening hiding in the fields and the only bad thing was a row with my Boy Next Door which I never said sorry for.

Try listening to a gig when 200 pished up Irish are having a ceileidh in the room directly above! Hats off to Lionshare who got the worst of it.
