Heartland

Hello all.
Sorry for coming back and being a spammy git, but this may actually be of some interest to folk here.

Basically, as you may know, I recently started running a club night called Danse Macabre. It does pretty well, and we get a mostly non-goth crowd, but they all still happily dance to whatever we play. The eponymous song "Sex Beat" gets everyone dancing, and we figured "huh, why don't we try and educate other younglings as to what goth should be like?"
And via the excellent Mr Ed Rhombus, we got in touch with the band, who were more than happy to oblige. Thank you, sir!

So long story short: this is the first gig I've ever put on and I am excited beyond words and you should all come to it!

SEX BEAT (+ support tba)
Tickets are £8 from Tickets Scotland.
It is at The Classic Grand, in Glasgow. Doors are at 7.

So aye. Am well chuffed.

oh how our once young ones have grown!
i for one am very proud of you Dark! well done and hope this turns out to be a blast like i'm sure it will!

Cheers MB.
Hopefully we can get a decent crowd along, they are a fairly fantastic band!

Good work man!

Good work that man! Putting on gigs leads to some pretty good highs and some pretty crushing lows, I should warn you.

We should start some kind of Masonic Lodge.

At least with you guys, I've got contacts in Leeds. Which, let's face it, is where every goth band in the country seems to be. Seriously, I can't find any in Glasgow.
EBM/industrial, no problem. Goth? Maybe Edinburgh, but nothing leaps to mind.

There's a lot going on it Leeds at the moment, but a lot of the new bands are coming from around London methinks.

not a Gnu Club thaang then?

nice to see I've still got the talent for killing a thread

You're the third or fourth person to ask whether it's about clubbing gnus.

No sir, just some auld g0ffix types coming up to show the younglings what a "Batcave" is.

Just a quick wee bump, we've got a sleazy Dundee electro/power-pop band called Cha Cha Heels supporting.

Excitement

No worries Korin, happy to help.

Hamish is lovely, as are the rest of the band. I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun.

He is. Just wish I had some way of getting in touch with him (and the others) a bit more easily. Sophie doesn't seem to check her email, or Hamish his Facespace more than once every couple of months

Still, we've got everything booked and ready, I guess they'll eventually want to know what the plan is and try and get in touch.
