psydoll Posted May 31, 2004 Report Share Posted May 31, 2004 Cheeky I'd have to add We Become Less to my list since seeing them at that instore appearance and getting hold of the EPs. Eric Euan were also most impressive in Drummonds.Looking forward to Fudgenight as been looking to see Onion Terror, Strobing Goat and The Hexagonal Pensioners for a while now. Sure Ken Hutchin'll be good as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris leslie Posted June 6, 2004 Report Share Posted June 6, 2004 I have to say that Lift are amongst the finest bands I've ever been lucky enough to see. I've seen them several times now and they've blown my mind every time, including one particular song with a huge outro that I can't get out of my head. It's a shame no-one seems to pay them much attention. I've seen Radiohead and U2 live and Lift eclipsed both of those experiences.Aside from that i like Eddison, Twenty Eight, Echomind, Dr. Flaw, The Cellers, Diablo, A.K.A the Fox and Driveblind. There are plenty of bands I haven't seen of course. I'd like to see Star, they sound good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
less_than_stu Posted June 6, 2004 Report Share Posted June 6, 2004 Favourite bands: Eric Euan, Turning Thirteen, A.K.A. The FoxHaving said that, I also really dig Pure Lead, The Deviadas, Femora, Apraxia.I really want to see The Real Shocks.Bug & Friends are amazing, but they don't play Morgans anymore, and Bug is moving to Edinburgh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
framheim Posted June 6, 2004 Report Share Posted June 6, 2004 lift were the band that got me into aberdeen music. they really genuinely changed my life. it's a shame mark left cause he was an amazing singer, but they are still mighty mighty good. *must fish out my old lift demos to listen to soon" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jester1470 Posted June 6, 2004 Report Share Posted June 6, 2004 what Edinburgh?? Nah man...Edinburgh is crap...it has virtually no scene and all the bands wanna do is play elsewhere....Not true, Edinburgh has a phenomenal acoustic scene, people like Johnny Dread, Graeme Mearns and Julie King, alsopeople like Holly Tomas etc,maybe not a great rock scene, but a very strong scene iinother ways.CheersStuart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirkt Posted June 7, 2004 Report Share Posted June 7, 2004 apparently they have a strong metal scene with Errata, Zillah, In Decades Decline etc...can't think of any decent punk bands from there cept misled youth and Swellbellys are from Dalkeith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 7, 2004 Report Share Posted June 7, 2004 ART FUCKThey were outstanding... it must be said.I really want to see The Real ShocksWe're playing this Wednesday, you lucky scamp.Last local gig we have arranged for months and months. We're on at Drakes, but not until after midnight... so fear not if you're watching The Needles or AKA the fox (I'll likely be at both myself).Oh and I add AKA teh fox to my favourite band list... possibly the top of my list at that.Lookinf forward to the lemon tree lovies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teabags Posted June 7, 2004 Report Share Posted June 7, 2004 Not forgetting Oi Polloi' date=' Aftermath, and Social Insecurity.[/quote']Social are pretty much dead now. Played one of their last gigs just about 2 or 3 weeks back.Afterbirth are still kicking about though, and should eb sticking together, just have to find a new drummer.

Kabuki Posted June 7, 2004 Report Share Posted June 7, 2004 After finally catching up with the 17 pages of this meandering ramble, t'is time to chuck in my tuppence worth.In no particular order:The Simon Gall BandThe Little KicksThe ShakesThe CutsSmiling PolitelyThe Needles67WildcardsThe ScoreSalThat's just the ones I've seen or worked with. Folks were talking about the various scene's/crowds that exist so that's something on the to-do list. Check out the the bands I wouldn't normally see. So roll on the summer and my drastically haemorrhaging bank balance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
