You're not usually so negative, Cloud......what's up?????[/quote']Yeah, I mean, the idea is fine in theory, but going from being highly amused with SPD, to being entertained with the Cuts, to being confused in a bad way with Simon Gall really messed up the night for me - Fair enough, they're really good musicians, but it seemed really inaccessible. I mentioned to someone how I'd probably have enjoyed them far more if they were part of something else, it just seemed utterly out of place. I suppose one way of looking at it is that it was a gamble that didn't really pay off - you never really know how these things turn out until you try them. Bold move by Fudge all the same, but I can't help but think that it showed that too much diversity can kill a gig dead. Maybe the Lemon Tree would be an excellent venue to see the Simon Gall band, but they..how to put it..it was like the atmosphere was flat (common problem with Moshulu gigs, it seems) and then the Simon Gall band killed the room stone dead. As for what's up, I've just decided to be a bit more vocal in my criticism I'm starting to think that it's Moshulu as a venue rather than anything else though - it just doesn't seem to work for gigs that would be far better off in places like Drakes or Kef. I'm going to close by saying that Fudge should take their 5th anniversary as a sign to go forth and be bold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cloud Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 Who were they playing with in Drakes? I'd be curious about seeing them there..and in all honesty, they'd probably seem a million times better due to the intimate atmosphere and all that..

psydoll Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 They played with 67 quite a while back and I was made a fan of both bands. Jazzier and more acoustic than a lot of things at Drakes the pair of them but I'd definitely recomment checking them out at Drakes or perhaps the Blue Lamp [i've never made it there though] as a more intimate atmosphere definitely suits them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stuartmaxwell Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 I think you should take a long hard look at yourself before calling someone a prick - typing your post all in caps and using lots of insults' date=' along with the DREADED *plays creepy music* "you're supposed to be playing for me!!" line makes you look like a complete and utter wanker.Oh, and saying that you'd like to swing for someone hardly puts you across as being intelligent. He had a valid point, I thought the last couple of Fudge nights have been pretty poor compared to ones in the past, but the venue has a lot to do with it, I suspect the nights would have been far better at Drakes than at Moshulu.Incidentally, the only person making a prick of themselves here is you =)[/quote']when you grow up, remember to delete or edit this thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alkaline Posted July 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 jack...fuck up.?I also meant "from Undertows point of view" with regard to the Audio Dropouts gig, that 'we' didn't bring along enough people, because i wasn't there promoting it.Have also spoken to Shawn, all should be cleared up. So everyone should just chillout. Hopefully Shawn will pass on my apologies to Shaz as well.CheersPhil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alkaline Posted July 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 Oh i forgot to say if you check earlier in this post you may find that i actually recommened Drakes as a venue that would be more suitable for Fudge, i actually quite like the place and can't say i've evere been to a bad gig there *ass kissing*.
