Re: Aberdeen tonight, Anyone going?
I went but it's South for me . A very enjoyable gig in an intimate venue, up close and personal. No Jet but JJ playing bass in the photo pit and kissing the women in the front row.

Re: SQUEEZE & THE LIGHTNING SEEDS ON TOUR 2010
Squeeze was the first proper band I saw live (opening for Eddie & The Hot Rods and the Radio Stars) back in 1978. Haven't seen them since and wouldn't really call myself a fan although I have a few 45s and a couple of the early LPs. I got offered a freebie for their gig in Aberdeen tomorrow whic...

Earlier this morning I've listened to the Eddie & the Hot Rods albums Life On The Line and Thriller having seen them playing to a half empty pub last night. They have very much still got "it", despite the lack of numbers in attendance. :smt035 Right now I'm chilling out to Come Down Wi...

Re: Ageism in the music industry - The Alarm/Stranglers
I think the music industry, and by association the radio stations, are still working very much within the "hit parade" or chart concept. As it was in the 60s, 70s etc, the single being very much the format preferred by the youth (as opposed to albums which were more / too expensive). There...

UK Subs in Aberdeen
Not sure if there are any fans on this board but the Subs played a cracking gig in Aberdeen at the weekend. The most energised I've seen them in a while. They're gonna have a new album - the letter W - out later in the year. Full review and some pics can be found HERE.

The SOD set is going to be based around the World Service album this time out which is cool. Obviously they'll be playing other stuff as well like.

I seen Sputnik live back in the day when they were at the height of their notoriety and they were fucking jawdroppingly good. Just a pulsing soundwave of pink hair, pink guitars, pink leather, pink lighting, punk madness. Brilliant! I saw Martin's Sputnik 2 a couple of years back and it just sounded...
