That looks like a good line up.
Particularly with the sports footwear shopworkers headlining

Sorry to piss on this parade, but we had to withdraw from this gig.
I informed Jay (TLFT) almost 2 weeks ago - did anyone check with him before putting this up?
I'm sure it'll be a great night anyway!!

Ha ha!
On a serious note, check these guys out - proper good band and nice guys too (despite the B.O. and halitosis)
Re: Sat 13 Feb - The Golden Cross - Go Lazarus, The Giveaway, The Cross Fires, Great White Sharks
And if the B.O. is too much go to the Kasbah and watch us play

Ah yes. The Kasbah..... I remember it well.......... stale piss and cheap perfume......... the sound of vomiting and 14 year old girls offering a blow job for an alcopop........ dodging coke dealers and bullets to get to the kebab van........ ah, the good old days - where DID they go?........
Re: Sat 13 Feb - The Golden Cross - Go Lazarus, The Giveaway, The Cross Fires, Great White Sharks

really like the Lazarus sound - reminds me of classic/early Cure and the Robert Smith like vocals - v good stuff.
Re: Sat 13 Feb - The Golden Cross - Go Lazarus, The Giveaway, The Cross Fires, Great White Sharks
ooh thank you very much for the compliments! Love the Cure and we've been working on the BO and halitosis for a long time!
Re: Sat 13 Feb - The Golden Cross - Go Lazarus, The Giveaway, The Cross Fires, Great White Sharks
Great White Sharks (featuring members of Moitessier) have been added to the bill for this one in place of The Red List.

just bumping this up as a reminder
Re: Sat 13 Feb - The Golden Cross - Go Lazarus, The Giveaway, The Cross Fires, Great White Sharks
Well that was a waste of time!
You know it's a bad sign when the promoter is full of apologies at the end of the night l o l even our drummer got angry!

why is it that if you write "l o l " (one word) it gives abuse to someone who regularly posts on this site?!?!
Re: Sat 13 Feb - The Golden Cross - Go Lazarus, The Giveaway, The Cross Fires, Great White Sharks
Ah, not a good night then?
Sorry for not making it down, am moving house so currently super-skint!

what's the crack? audience? sound?
Re: Sat 13 Feb - The Golden Cross - Go Lazarus, The Giveaway, The Cross Fires, Great White Sharks
It was just really badly organised - the 1st band was meant to start at 7:30 but they didn't end up going on til about 8:30 (partly because the promoter turned up late), so everyone's set got cut down. Then the 2nd from last band on played a really long set and didn't finish til 10:35 - so we did a 5minute changeover and had a 20min set before the curfew. The promoter was nowhere to be seen when the 2nd from last band on were over-running so there no-one to tell them they should have finished. And I think it's just common courtesy for the bands to stick around and watch the others on the bill - it's fair enough if you've got to go but if you're staying til the end of the night anyway - at least have the decency to watch the bands playing!
Rant over - glad I got that off my chest but I think we just had a bad experience last night. I've heard good things about the promoter and his gigs and from what he was saying last night I think it was a one-off that we were shit on. So I think it was just one of those things... On the plus side, the sound guy was good and a really nice bloke, the quality of the bands was good, equipment was good, friendly atmosphere etc etc just annoying when you spend a Saturday night doing this and come away feeling like we did

a pet hate of mine when a band before you extends their set, knowing the night is already running late

Our night at the Kasbah went ok. Two drum kits on the side room stage though.. I was practically sitting on the sunshine undergrounds bass drum, and penned in either side of massive amps. never seen a stage so full. That and the 30second sound check wasnt great, but pretty good crowd, and as ever we did the best that we could..tough to get a good sound.
Its also nice when your bass drum pedal falls off mid song

pet gripe of mine the way bands piss off - the last place we played in Brum a band who'd been on got their gear off stage and placed it just down centre of the stage - when the next band was on they started to haul their gear out the room right in front of them and the punters. Fucking rude - more than anything don't those sort of bands have any curiousity abut the other bands they're sharing the room with?
