Gigs Outside Of The Pale 1277 17
Started by Gar
In relation to Darragh's recent OpEd (http://www.cluas.com/opinion/index.htm) and a comment a friend made to me recently. Are gigs outside of the Pale or Dublin at least more exciting, full fledged fan fever and more vocal If so, what are the best venues for this - Rosin Dubh, Half Moon, Dolans Warehouse

Russell Crowe's New Single 998 3
Started by Rev Jules
Yes, even though he made his name delivering lines like this, 'My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius. Commander of the armies of the North, general of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor Marcus Aurelius, father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife, and I will have my vengeance in this life or the next', he still sees himself as a sensitive soul - which is why in his spare time he likes to write and perform music, like his new single 'RAEWYN' which is an intriguing mixture...

kilkenny rhythm & roots festival 995 1
Started by aidan
I see that the kilkenny rhythm and roots festival is coming around again - if it's as brilliant as last year (the double-bill of the hot club of cowtown and the willard grant conspiracy was fantastic) then it's highly recommended - a great way to find out about new music, deadly gigs in small venues, in a lively city. this year, ray lamontagne is playing, amongst other interesting acts.

The Go!Team & the wonder of DJ Scotch Egg 1190 11
Started by Norman Schwarzkopf
Anyone else at Go!Team on Sat.night Short but great fun. Haven't seen a band look so happy on stage in a long time. All smiles unt sunshine. Great.
For those of you who weren't there, let me describe DJ Scotch Egg.
After The Pipettes (early 60s girl group style), a small bearded Japanese lad in a hoody and baseball cap came out on stage with some real aggressive electro music. He started 'rapping' and shouting into the mic (although you couldn't hear him) and jerking about and pointing. N...

Music Magazines 4613 38
Started by Antistar
Anyone else out there feel their music tastes are not being catered to by music publications
NME: Once mighty publication now turned into a tawdry comic. Full of ads and over-hyped bands. Can be read almost entirely in half an hour. For free. In Tower. What a shame.
Hot Press: Mediocre at best. Too many ads, free hair gel samples etc.
Writing is either exceedingly dull or convoluted and pretentious. Too fawning towards Irish artists no matter how crap they are.
Q: Rubbish. Crass. Put...

Bloc Party 2693 27
Started by the face
Below is a paragraph review of Bloc Party as a band. Further down is a one word review, if you want to skip to the chase.
Its only my opinion of course but i think Bloc Party aren't very good at all, at all. I dont tend to bitch about other bands but to hear people say that 'they are the future of music' makes me very very worried.
Musically they are crap, not one decent musician in the band. The guitar playing is awful (clangy guitar with one chord plucked over and over, oh yeah and over a...

Started by aidan
I only realised yesterday that saul bellow died last week. nobel prize winner in 1975, he wrote funny and humane novels like 'humboldt's gift' and 'henderson the rain king' but his best novel is 'the adventures of augie march' - it's funny, wild, full of great characters, crazy situations and wonderful language and it's definitely up there with 'ulysses' and 'the great gatsby' as the greatest novel of the 20th century. if you haven't read it, I really recommend it - a mix of 'on the road', '..ga...

C4s Top 100 Albums - Sunday 2087 21
Started by Norman Schwarzkopf
See there's another top 100 poll on C4 sunday nite: 100 Greatest albums.
These polls always bring up the same aul chestnuts, claiming Bohemian Rhapsody is the best song ever, closely followed by Angels or piffling nonsense.
What do people think the great british public will choose as best album (Unless it's based on sales.) It's a bit harder to predict I think.

If you put on a gig, in a good venue and supply all the back line and do your best as a promoter to get AnR or press to the show why shouldn’t bands have to supply the crowed...
