Guest Steven Dedalus Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 They used to be good, but that was a good while ago, now that I think about it.I be surprised if many people came to see them, but they were a good band.And there was loads of them, if I remember correctly.

TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 Aye, don't they have 2 drummers? I've heard a couple of songs and thought that they were alright, so I'd go see them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

french_disko Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 I'm with Bluesxman - BOOK 'EM!!I'd get at least 4 or 5 of us going, all of whom are fans - bit more if i can persuade a couple of other guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inkster Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 I remember these guys. They were ok at best.I think you'd be losing money on this one if you booked it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bluesxman Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 It's down to personal taste innit - personally I'd love it if they came to Aberdeen as they knock spots off of the majority of pish 'alternative guitar' type bands that come here and I'm a fan of their style of music. Moshulu would probably be too big a venue, Tunnels however... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How the fuck someone can say not to book them - saying that a loss would be made & not particulary liking the band - without knowing how much they'd cost or how many people would attend really fucks me off. Surely they could be marketed on their connections to Brian jonestown massacre and Beck (Bobby Hecksher played bass on Stereopathetic Soul Manure) alone.

I own one of there albums although I forget which one it is.As most people have said on here, they were the next big thing about 4 years ago...maybe not so much now.I doubt they'd cost pittence with a couple of cans thrown in for good measure coming all the way over from America.It's just my opinion.

They're amazing. Their bassist played on a Beck album you've probably never heard of!"I'm exaggerating, but they're not the kind of band you'd go and see on impulse, I think.Of course it all deopends on how much they cost...
