Guest idol_wild Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 Anyone care to explain to me what the Glasgow Unsigned Showcase is that I've seen advertised as coming to the LT?Cant get my head around it. Is it a gig swap thing or something?I saw this poster in the venue too.The bands sound like they're mince. They'll all probably "piece together the best parts of the Stones, Led Zep, The Beatles and Oasis to make a new fresh and invigorating sound", or some shite like that.

Graeme Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Who are the bands? How many bands actually get "signed" these days anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Stax Posted March 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Well, I don't know about anyone else but I cant wait! I'm going along to find out exactly what it takes to be the next big thing in the music business. Something I know that Aberdeen Musicians have been crying out for. Thankfully someone has seen the light and decided we need Glasgow to come up here and show us the way!Sarcasm aside Im sure the bands may be alright but who the fuck in their right mind thought this was a good idea?! Is this the new music programmers brilliance at work?o_OAgain, I'm happy to be corrected on any and all points!andis an Unsigned Showcase not just a gig?! I played an unsigned showcase at the Moorings last night! Pick a venue with a local line and hey presto...I'm tired and grumpy by the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Cynic Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 You were showing 'signs' of that!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeanette Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 I had a wee look to see which Glasgow bands are on the line up... and 'who?' sprung to mind. I'm not saying that their name should be known or anything, but there's so many bands down here that unless you're half decent or manage to get your name out and about you just flounder.

Sam 45 Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Those are some far from inspiring bands. There is so much better down here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeanette Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Who are they then?If you mean who are the bands playing the 'showcase' I have absolutely no idea!EDIT: Here's the link if you meant names of the bands...THE LEMON TREE LOUNGE : Productions : Glasgow Unsigned Showcase Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alkaline Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 If you mean who are the bands playing the 'showcase' I have absolutely no idea!How do you know you've never heard of them if you don't know who's playing? o_O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeanette Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 How do you know you've never heard of them if you don't know who's playing? o_OI went to the link on the Lemon Tree website and had a wee look at who's playing. What I meant was I hadn't seen their names on posters or heard them mentioned anywhere, hadn't seen them support any other Glasgow bands etc etc.I didn't make that very clear. Sorry.

Sorry.I have now followed the links and checked out the bands.o_ONothing there really to suggest that there will be or should be an/any audience there that night.I would probably enjoy Rodan if I had walked into The Moorings for a passing pint and they happened to be playing.The rest of it can 'get tae foock'!
