The Ghost Of Fudge Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 I'm sure Flash will be along to say if I'm wrong but I think the reason the Moorings only books for a Saturday is becasuse of the fact it has neighbouring people who could complain about loud gigs on a weekday.not any more. as of today, the moorings is open til 3am on fridays and saturdays, and we'll now be putting on a couple of bands on fridays too... woop woop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well deserved.I have to admit that I generally agree that the venues seem to be thinning a bit. I still miss Drakes. I saw some incredible, weird stuff there.

Gus Chamber Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 Have to disagree with you min. Sure, there are a lot of gigs going on in Aberdeen but the number of punk/HXC gigs (i.e. the kind that you would go to!) seems to be on a constant decrease. Hence why I was looking forward to Wormrot so much when they were here a couple of weeks ago; there hadn't been a line-up that good in Aberdeen for that kind of music for quite some time!Yup, that's the point I was trying to make. Gigs tend to be more enjoyable if they're more of an occasional event, as opposed to folk thinking "Doesn't really matter if I miss it, there'll be another gig like that next week". That Wormrot gig was an utter blinder. So, quality not quantity really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 I can't say I see the lack of passing trade as necessarily a bad thing unless you really want a crowd to the extent that you are happy to play to a crowd of neds, drunks and general ne-er do wells that often turn up in Drummonds.I managed once to get rid of many of those types from Drummonds by taking part in what can only be described as "experimental" music. Experimental as in "let's see how many people leave after we play 20 minutes of noise while abusing them". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waltz Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 What a load of shit.Drummonds has not replaced local bands with food. They have both. Done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xDamerx Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I think more gigs should be played at Drummonds. Nothing against Tunnels but I prefer Drummonds. Tunnels, seems, and sort of is isolated. I just get a better vibe from Drummonds and doesn't have such a claustrophobic feeling in there. You can't get phone reception either! I'm into hardcore and like music and the amount of venues is incredibly slim. Gigs are never played at Music Hall, obviously too expensive, nor the Lemon Tree. And it seems only bigger bands only play at Warehouse.. Looked like Korova started getting some gigs going on, but I can't remember anything been played there since Have Heart, but I could be wrong!Just my opinion that's all!

The sound was horrendous. Don't think it makes a good live venue at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pierre Von Mondragon Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I must observe that Fuck I'm Dead is the best name for a band I've heard in ages, though it might be funnier with a comma after the fuck, I'm imagining it with the accent.

We will play for about 25 minutes tops. You could watch us and leave and then if you have missed a call claim you were in the bog struggling with a jabby jobby or something.

Gus Chamber Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Still think Americunt had the best ones, so no apologies for giving some of them again...You can't argue and say Americunt's good, because we made it, and we know it's gay.Limp Bizkit make gay music because they listen to Tool, and Tool are shit.Kurt Cobain-dead, Tupac-dead, die Maynard cunt! Fuck you!Goths are shithouse.Without the enzyme, zymase, converting starch into simple sugars, your yeast is fucked and it will be unleavened bread for all.The fact that you listen to Tool makes you dumb enough for me to need no other reason to kill you.No matter what the reason for you ripping up your arms is, you're still a fucking tosser.So what if every second song I write is about hating Tool, they're fucking shit and I hope they die...and fuck you for giving a shit, you gay fucking Tool-loving bumjacking cunt! (you deserve to die)I'll say sorry when you give me my bike and my virginity back, you crazy paint-sniffing faggot.We killed Euronymous, and threatened to kill Varg, so he took the rap for us because he's a pussy.Our golden arches were inappropriately placed on the radio last night.I hate those shithouse grind songs that just repeat the title a couple of times before exulting in a noise outro.And my personal favourite:You listen to Tool because you want to kill yourself, and you listen to Slayer because you want to kill everyone else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djamba Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 I went to a gig in drummonds, for the first time in years. Had to leave within 10 minutes because the sound was so fucking terrible. It actually hurt to be in there. In no hurry to go back now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
