palmer_eldritch Posted January 16, 2005 Report Share Posted January 16, 2005 I'd really like to go to this but im guessing its sold out. The advertising for this event certainly was crap. I wouldn't know about it if it wasn't for this post. Then again maybe i just missed everything...Anyway, not to worry, i was planning on going to Drakes to catch the Downroads on the 23rd anyway. hehehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leftboy Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 IMHO Doves are pish, poor man's Coldplay, and that is saying something I think you'll find it the other way round. One is weedy bed-wetters music, the other os soulful and emotional. And how much of a rip off of "Pounding" is that Snow Patrol song?!
