nice!
i shall be at all/most of these :)
caz
yay.
I am totally
in love with her EP.
Yup.
lots of rock!
^
Too much rock, I would say.
No way.
The Holy Roar show = rock, for sure.
May = lots of dancing.
June = lots of shoegazing.
July = a crazy jumble of fun angles and lovely post-rock and furious punkarocka.
August = likewise.
September = kinda rocking I guess, but GOOD rocking, and sludgy too.
October = totally nice.
All looks like rock to me
Hmm.
Well...
...I suppose all bands do use guitars.
In the grand scheme of things they'd mostly be racked in the rock/pop section of your average HMV.
You win!
Yes! *clenched fist celebration*
I knew I was right. Srsly though - bar what, three or four of those, I would say that they are mostly bands of a 'louder' persuasion. Maybe?
Not really loud...
...in the RAWKLOUD mould.
But many will fill the room with amplified instruments.
Which can be danced to.
Yes.
that Holy Roar vs DiS show
looks awesome to the maxx!
WOOT!
These look luvvverly...!
Can't wait for the Favours for Sailors one though!
.
Looks like proper japes.
Only wish I could get to more...
Maybe I can.
can I play in november?
I've got a backing band now. we're a bit rock. but not too much.
some nice shows
gonna try and get to london for the yndi one.
can we call our clubnight pre-Discover?
Excellent , I should be there for the July and August dates
hope I can make the Holy Roar one too. Like THIS much.
Hurrah!
for RoTa!
i almost forgot how bloody great saturday afternoons in notting hill can be so i hope to make it down to some of those.
and stand by for another vacuous pop showcase sometime this year too, only almost 4 years after the 1st one i did!
ady
"Free...
for 18+"
Is it so hard to choose a venue where they let it be 16+ or even 14+??!
I love all these club nights DiS, artrocker etc. but they never let the kids in.
