There'll be a walk up on the night, without a doubt, but I expect the place will be less than a third full. The only benefit I can see here is that we won't have to suffer the 30 minute wait at the bar to be served liked at Goldie Lookin' Chain the other week!

It's the eagerly anticipated follow-up to his debut record' date=' Moving Up Country, which was rapturously received on its release two years ago. James is a former member of the band Huckleberry and an associate of the Fence Collective, whose bucolic, acoustic sound is very much in tune with his own.

I think excessive pricing of tickets kept a lot of people away. Everyone piled up to the forum for Chris Clark, Beans & Plaid after that (& that was badly attended again due to pricing)This caused a lot of us to moan @ Triptych saying that for the same price Glasgow & Edinburgh were getting six or seven acts & Aberdeen in future should get parity & not be the poor relationgratuitous plug by interesting music)(ps Thurs 4/11 Dr Drakes Christ, (mainly new set & visuals), Frog Pocket & SCART Thug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j.turgenev Posted October 28, 2004 Report Share Posted October 28, 2004 im going, mainly for adem, who by the way i think sounds nothing like coldplay, apart from having an english accent. you should be ashamed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragudave Posted October 29, 2004 Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 What a damn fine gig for an Autumn night in Aberdeen... The highlight was the track that involved both Adem and JY which went a little Hawkwindish. I never expected that at an alt folk night,Note to self - must buy some Adem / new JY album when I get thru my new purchase mountain.Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, we were standing at the end of bar when a bunch of people came stood right in front of our view of the stage. Very annoying. And, yeah, I believe you - I'm sure you don't own Coldplay CDs at all...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragudave Posted October 29, 2004 Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 The talking tw@ts were damn annoying - esp during the quieter moments of both sets.
