Forthcoming gigs.



No, but apart from the singer/lyrics who I enjoyed, the music was fairly generic 'angry' indie punk. I didn't not enjoy it, it was just wasn't as original as some have said.
I saw Fontaine’s n Murder Capital within a couple of hours of each other...........I know exactly what you’re saying. Both fit the current post punk indie is template. Dress in dark clothes, bit of sleeper, bit of stranglers, bit of wire, bit of fall, a couple of lines of talking in a few songs etc etc.
Nowt wrong with it mind.
Warmduscher
Hotel Lux
Parliamo
Weird Milk
The Howlers
Strange Bones
Rhod Gilbert
David Baddiel

Probably the following:
Jah Wobble
The Skids (unplugged)
The Zombies
and you will know us....

Anyone know owt about this lot? I’ll be giving what I can find a listen before booking but any first hand experience may help.
Egyptian Blue
Emily Capell
Blue Hour
Blackwaters
The Jacques

Anyone going to Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs at the Independent next week. Just noticed it there then, will have a ride through with the daughter.

Or are we being all parochial about it?
 
NYC in May. Not seen them since London, early 90s. I was trying to remember where else I’d seen them and I think I saw them, randomly, in Hartlepool back then. Any idea what venue was in Hartlepool on the circuit back then (late 80s)? It felt almost like the function room of a working men’s club
It's not the 'proper' HOL though. It's Guy and some new musicians. Especially not without Bickers


I saw them twice in two days. Middlesbrough and Sunderland (Poly?). Late 1989.

Thanks, I guess it was that - Borough Hall. As for Bickers, this is the anniversary of the Butterfly album and he’d gone by then anyway - there was a different guitarist whose name escapes. He may have been in the “proper” lineup but not when they had their biggest success. I think he was on the album but not for the gigs.
