kirkt Posted September 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 Here is what Sonic Boom Six say about the Ruff N Ready Tour on their website:"As the more eagle-eyed amongst you may have garnered by now, the RUFF AND READY TOUR will be winging it's merry way across the UK this October. Once again we've moved heaven and earth (well, made some arrangements) to ensure that we're offering the best bang for your bullion and got three of the best underground acts coming along with us for a fortnight. Opening will be CHIEF from Liverpool. They play a suburb scouse blend of posi hardcore punk in the vein of Strike Anywhere, Propagandhi, Gorilla Biscuits and all that good stuff. After them will be JB CONSPIRACY who I'm sure many of you will be familiar with plying their ska punk rock trade. Fans of Howards Alias, Capdown, Mad Caddies will be suitably overjowed. And - the surprise international representation - Canada's acoustic ska king CHRIS MURRAY will be playing before the Boom. Expect some of the most soulful ska and reggae on the planet at a venue near(ish) you. Across the tour we've tried to visit some of the towns that we have missed over the last year. So, if for instance, you live in Manchester, then tough! Travel to Liverpool. Think about how often they have to do it the other way around... Anyway, come add yourself on the MYSPACE"This is kind of make or break as far as booking shows like this go so if you want to see some more of the finest from the underground punk scene please come and show your support for this one!

daveladocus Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 ye, i think we might have to charge the bands an entry fee. Chief were brilliant a few months back at Drummonds, and JB are always great live. Also really excited about Chris Murray, should be ace.

kirkt Posted September 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 Escape To Victory on at around 6.45 so get down early Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blitzkrieg Bob Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 Well that was fan-fucking-tastic! Six acts, all different, all really, really good. I thought The Hijacks and Escape To Victory held up the Aberdeen end rather well. Chris Murray maybe shaded it on the night for me personally from the Boom but, like I say, everyone was terrific. Cheers to GFN for nailing this one. , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
