Presumably they need the crates for the Bierkeller?

Saw them last week in Belgium...awesome, you're in for a treat

[Bassassin]

Saw them in Edinburgh a couple of nights back. A quite joyous mix of virtuosity and nonsensical silliness.

Bands like them exist to remind us that playing music is meant to be fun - and I've seldom seen a band so blatantly enjoying themselves on stage. Oink!

Jon.

A highlight could be Govan whipping out his fretless Vigier. Imagine that - fretless bass is hard enough

Indeed. Though serious, professionals they don't take themselves too seriously.

You might do better - Heaven is primarily a nightclub and they want to get the greasy longhairs out, tidy up the empty tinnies and generally defumigate the place well in advance of letting the pretty young things in to shake their stuff - especially with it being last Friday before Christmas and that.

From the Bierkeller website:

Doors Open - 7.30pm
First Act on stage 8pm

You've got Godsticks supporting, I'll be curious to hear how they're getting on with their new drummer.
