RossP Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 i'm glad major major got in, they were phenomonal when i saw them last, Turning 13 totally deserve to get to the final 12 as well easily in the top 3 Aberdeen bands at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delboy Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 i was listening to the session in scotland last night and they played little snipets of each bands, there was loads that i'd not heard of and there was a few hip hop acts in there as well so nice to see a bit of diversity as well. would have been nice to see more north east bands in the list but i've no idea how many actually applied!

framheim Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 to be honest it really wasn't advertised much up here, i only found out the cut off date two days after it had lapsed i'm still disappointed that they don't do the regional heats anymore.

Guest Bob Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 What do they do rather than regional heats? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RF Scott Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 we did enter...but it was our demo from october last year demo's i'm guessing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundian Posted April 17, 2004 Report Share Posted April 17, 2004 The regional heats were held across Scotland. Now everyone has to go to Glasgow or Edinburgh, which gives the locals a bit of an unfair advantage, unless they make all the Glasgow bands play in Edinburgh and vice-versa.
