You thought they were dead. But, no! Grungey rockers Cobra

dictatorial lead-singer/guitarist leaving to live in Dublin. Expect

an odd choice of covers and a celebratory, drunken vibe.

MATANUSKA

Glaswegian band The Static Cult have had some problems with

Fudge Aberdeen presents:

THE MOORINGS BAR

HALLOWEEN SPOOKTACULAR pt.1

THE GOTHIC DORICS

A terrifying electro group who mix a gothic rave with songs

about fucking and crowd participation slots. If you’re at the

right level of ‘drunk’, this will probably be the best gig ever.

www.facebook.com/pages/The-Gothic-Dorics/100112033366869

DARTH ELVIS AND THE IMPERIALS

The only suitable support act on this night of madness would

be four musicians dressed as Star Wars characters playing

lyrically ‘adapted’ versions of Elvis tunes. They’re brilliant.

www.facebook.com/pages/Darth-Elvis-The-Imperials/195551207130279

Friday 28th October at The Moorings Bar.

First act onstage 9pm, second act 10pm. Strictly 18+ only.

Free entry before 8.45pm, £3 thereafter until close.

DJ Beard Fury and friends will provide epic tunage for the

party from when the bands finish at around 11pm, right up

to the usual 3am curfew. By which time we'll all be drunk,

hurrah! I'm not sure if we're doing a fancy dress competition

on the friday night or not, but feel free to get dressed up

anyway. It's not like you really need an excuse here...

M.I.N.E.

Grungy rock monster MINE reformed in 2008 after a positive

... reaction to a one off charity performance. Currently recording

an album, they are also preparing to play their usual sweaty,

enjoyable set of foot stomping anthemic rock tunes for us.

www.facebook.com/pages/MINE/76796115490?sk=wall

[ ]

[ ] are a 2 piece band, formed over a mutual love of Lighting

Bolt, Neurosis and TOOL. Although trying to combine these

influences into one cohesive musical entity may seem like a

futile effort, [ ] have decided to make no qualms about being

genrehopping, noise loving, pretentious bastards.

Guest Gladstone

It was fucking good. Moorings is my new favourite drinking establishment in Aberdeen. Can't believe I've never been in before. Malpaso Gang were ace and what I saw of Son Henry was really good too (but I had to shoot off not long into his set).
