The sound was fairly rough but that didn't stop me from jumping round like a 17 year old again! Loved it. Random Hand were good as well, from what I saw.

Doc B Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Damn - can't believe I missed them as I've been in Durham this weekend. I'll also miss them at home in Glasgow as I'm still in Durham till tomorrow. :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil.i.stein Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 bastard. gig cancelled due to lack of ticket sales. money refunded at the venue, but gutted all the same. to name and shame the venue, it was SUB-91 in Leicester. they didn't even bother to put a sign out saying 'gig cancelled' or similar. tossers. i think they're part of the 'walkabout' chain of Australian-run pubs. complete cowboys.

bassoctopus Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 They only sold 100 tickets at Newcastle. Luckily they sold another 100 or so on door sales Bloody Ncle Academy 10pm curfew is a joke though. Norwood wasn't impressed when we saw him at the end. Great gig as usual, but sound was pretty poor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thisnameistaken Posted May 3, 2011 Author Share Posted May 3, 2011 Ah I wondered why everyone was on so early, it was weird. Still, plenty of drinking time afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been to gigs in a few, and every single one has been horrendously boomy and muddy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassoctopus Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 Kings X sound was really good. The venue was too small for the choas of the Fishbone sound I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
