Saturday 7th October @The Golden Cross, Redditch
Three pounds in, late bar til 1am…
Three pounds in, late bar til 1am…
Thanks to everyone who came along last night, especially to the Rrrrs for stepping into the breach at the last minute and Grown At Home for not only playing a storming set, but being some of the nicest blokes we’ve had the pleasure of supporting.
Massive all-dayer at the newly refurbished Docks in Gloucester, headlined by the mighty Geno Washington and the Ram-Jam band, with The Worried Men, Paradox and others.
It’s free, it’s outside and it starts at 1pm - we’re still waiting on stage times but we’d hazard a guess we’ll be doing our thing at around 3pm.
Just in case it’s not been hot enough for you of late, Warwick PunkSoc will be turning the heat up on Saturday at their 3rd Explosive All-Dayer, a 13-band line up headlined by Zen Baseballbat, along with Brighton punks Random Heroes and Bristol’s dark 2-TonersThe Scrub. More local talent is supplied by Wasted Daze, Harvey Angel and The Tits, amongst others. You can see the full line-up on the flier below, or at the PunkSoc website
We’re going to be doing our brassed-up punk thing at about 3:30 or so, and we’re going to be debuting a brand new song - Deathray - which has been keeping us amused in rehearsal for the last few weeks.
Tickets are £6:50 (£6 with a flier, or £5.50 if you’re dressed as a pirate). See you there!
If you’re in the vague area of Derby on Wednesday, you might
want you drop by the Flowerpot, where your favourite brasscore vigilantes will
be playing alongside chump-rock pioneers Mr Wolf and Nottingham’s
frighteningly awesome Weeble in support of the hard-touring, hard-skanking
Fandangle. Four pound on the door, so a pound a band…
Sorry, been a bit lax on the updating of late, so I’ll be brief
Gig - Mansfield Town Mill - 10 o’clock horses, the almighty Weeble, 6FD and us, not sure how much in, should be good…
Normal service resumed soon, promise…
The Stupid invasion continues its inexorable progress across the East Midlands this weekend, hitting The Attik in Leicester in support of The Catch-It Kebabs. Additional support comes from Doncaster ska-punkers Masenko and local boys Chief Libido. Doors 8:30ish, cost TBC.
Undaunted by our thrashing at Cox’s Yard, we once again don our chainmail and head out to do battle. We’re back at the Seven Stars in Hucknall, facing off against The Jam Tartans, LongDrop, Ax-Minster Scotchguard & The Numskulls and Khalo in the first round of their Battle Of The Bands. 8pm start, £3 in.
So, in case you’d forgotten, we recently went into the studio to record our new EP, ‘Stupid, Stupid, Stupid And Steve Want No Part In This’. We also had a competition in design the cover. Well, we waded through the mountain of entries and came up with a winner, so congratulations to Rob, whose voodoo-hell-rollercoaster vision had us scared and amused in roughly equal measures.
In order to launch this EP, we thought we’d have a party - an “EP Launch Party”, if you will. As we’re far to lazy busy to organise such a thing ourselves, we borrowed a thursday night at Robbin’s Well and you know what that means - Pirate Thursday!!! So get yourselves pirated up, and head on down to the Well to join us (now with 19% more lyrics!), Oxford punks Submerse, subtle Evesham hardcore outfit The C*nts and Doncaster ska-punkers Masenko. 8:30 start, £2 in as usual I guess…
To keep you going, here’s a preview of the cover of the new EP, which can be preordered from our Online Shop.
That’s right people - we’ve hardly let the smell of the studio fade before we’re back onstage doing what we do better than anyone else, which is play our songs slightly too fast whilst under the influence of the Devil Drink. In this particular instance, we’re pitted against Fear Of The West and The Untouchables in a struggle for ultimate first-round supremacy in what can only be termed a Melée of Music. A Ruck of Rock. A Battle, if you will, of Bands.
All of which basically means that we need the Stupid Army in full effect to stand any chance of getting through to fight another day, so strap on your dancing boots and head for Cox’s Yard, where you should cheer your guts out for your favourite brass-punk vigilantes (us, in case that wasn’t clear). Three quid in, doors at 7:30pm and it’s a 14+ show.
