The metal/punk/hardcore "scene" is' date=' relatively speaking, tiny in Aberdeen. That along with poor promotion will put off a lot of bands.

There seems to be no problem with mainstream acts like Travis, elton john, or even lulu pulling a crowd. I was even dragged along by my wife to see edi reader at the beach ballroom some time ago. To my surprise it was mobbed and a very good gig indeed.[/quote']

MOst gigs by hald-well kown people - Bloc Party, GLC, etc. do sell out and the crowd is really, good. And to be fair, most bands only do Glasgow, even missing out Edinburgh.

I contacted friends of Pete Doherty (I help run The Libertines official website) a while back and Babyshambles came up here... OK, so that went a bit wrong, but still, if people contact bands and stuff, and show an interest, things start to happen.
