Exciting times, all ye psychedelic warriors.
On May the first, at the Engine Rooms, Brighton, We will be presenting a whole day (2 til 10.30) of freak-out rock'n'roll, psychedelia, drone, krautpunk and improv.

Bnads confirmed so far are Burning Idiot Noise, Astrolabe, Fuck U Planet Earth, Wireless and last but not least...

wait for it...

wait for it...

DAMO SUZUKI!
Damo is coming to town and will be backed by the cream of Brighton's psychedelic scene (me'self included, natch)!
It is going to be a day to remember and all you freak'd out Barbeloid muddas are the first to hear about it.

It's also on a bank holiday Sunday so you have a day to rest your third eyes before going back to work.

Tickets will be £7.00/£6.00 concessions.

I will post more info as to where to obtain tickets as and when I have it.

I am so excited that I can only communicate by squeeking.
It will be a Mayfest to remember.

At last... Brighton... drone-rock...AND with enough notice to save up the pennies and be there. Yay! "Oh, what to wear?!" Mr. Suzuki likes Brighton. And they say Brighton is turning into another ChavTown...

lord nuneaton savage

13:34 / 22.02.05

Hmm, as regards what to wear I would advise a hare mask and a flat cap. Y'know, for that May 1st socialist/pagan crossover thang.

Oh, and some form of ear protection might be a good idea too.

Uncle Batman

22:38 / 22.02.05

Sounds good. I'll be there probably. Sounds like a good place to take too many drugs. The Engine Rooms is a bit poo though.

12:40 / 23.02.05

as confirmed on street, i'm gonna try and be there. i might even form a BAND 'specially.

lord nuneaton savage

12:56 / 24.02.05

Rest assured, my BAND will be better than your BAND.
Although, to be honest, I'll be playing a few times on the day so there is the possibility that my BAND will be better than MY band. If you see what I mean...

Sorry you don't like the venue Mac. It was cheap and willing to help out so we went for it. I've always quite liked it me'self. Plenty of dark corners to hide in...

Uncle Batman

14:06 / 25.02.05

Oh I know - just grousing. I put on a night at the Ocean Rooms, so I can shut the fuck up.
I'll still be there.

Rollo Kim, on location

15:29 / 25.02.05

I've heard good things about the Engine Room but I haven't been there yet. I've been warned that Ocean Rooms is full of chavs and wanna-be 'glamour mogels' which is a bit scary - I don't remember it being like that last year.

THOR!

18:08 / 25.02.05

where's the engine rooms?

Goodness Gracious Meme

20:09 / 25.02.05

Bottom of preston street, used to be the BN1?

Yeah, looks groovy. but could you tell us a bit earlier next time?

...yr band? as good as MY BAND? it is hardly credible.

please, i shall contact snopes.com with the next one.

- i bet it will be good though, brighton buddies - **TRUST**)

Rollo Kim, on location

11:48 / 26.02.05

Let's not kid ourselves, we all know my band is the bestist. I'm embarrassed that I have to point this out... We're so subversive that you haven't even heard of us, let alone heard us, that's how cool we are.

lord nuneaton savage

13:14 / 01.03.05

Gumby. Engine rooms, as pointed out, bottom of Preston street. Near where all the food is.
Yum.

Goodness Gracious Meme

15:16 / 01.03.05

So we can pop out for curry in the afternoon, between bands...

lord nuneaton savage

13:04 / 05.04.05

For Brightonian types the tickets are on sale now in Rounder and in Edgeworld.

Bloody hell I've got to pull my finger out regarding promotion...

El Directo

17:05 / 05.04.05

If you get a cancellation let me know. I can speak for the rest of Hunting Lodge when I say we'd love to play this line-up.

rizla mission

17:43 / 05.04.05

Why, this sounds absolutely marvellous!

And, given the bank holiday, I'll quite possibly be free to attend too.

hmm... makes plans..

lord nuneaton savage

13:27 / 06.04.05

Seth, you are literally about two days too late. We have had a cancellation, The Fuck You Planet Earth have pulled out, but we have replaced them, with lightning speed, with Scatter. Sorry. I'll let you know if we put on more events and I'll give you an address to send a demo to.

Riz; Come, come, come to the Sabbat! I'm sure that friendly floorspace could be found if you need it.

COME ON YOU BEAUTIES!

rizla mission

15:50 / 06.04.05

Jolly good!

What I've heard about Scatter sounds right up my street - I'll be seeing them when they play in Leicester during May too.

Are you sure you've got no room for Hunting Lodge though..? It's about bloody time I got 'round to seeing them.

Barring accidents, illness and weird changes of plan, I'll be there.

lord nuneaton savage

18:13 / 06.04.05

Great news! I look forward to meeting you.
Unfortunately re: Hunting Lodge (or The Lodge, as their fans no doubt call them) the posters started going up today and we simply have no more space. Sorry 'bout that. Like I said, we will endevour to put them on. They sound up our alley, so to speak.

El Directo

19:08 / 06.04.05

That'd be awesome. PM me your email address and I'll send you some MP3s.

The Natural Way

20:47 / 10.04.05

I think I might be going out the night before and that's bound to get messy, but I should show up because, y'know, dinner.

Rollo Kim, on location

13:25 / 23.04.05

So is this, like, still happening and stuff?

autopilot disengaged

00:33 / 24.04.05

yes. there are flyers and everything.

lord nuneaton savage

13:02 / 25.04.05

It is still happening. Same line up, same space.

Now all we need is some people to come on down.

Come down, damn you, come down.

lord nuneaton savage

12:59 / 26.04.05

And for anyone who needs to see some "official" confirmation, the full line up is in The Wire listings this month.

Gypsy Lantern

16:04 / 26.04.05

I'm thinking about coming down for this... Seem to have the brighton itch at the moment... are there tickets left? can I pay on the door?

meme buggerer

16:11 / 26.04.05

Blimey- this sounds promising, hope there's still tickets...

lord nuneaton savage

13:03 / 27.04.05

Yes, there are plenty of tickets left to buy on the door. I would advise a reasonably timed arrival, though.
Start time is 2.00pm. But you don't have to stay in the venue all day if you arrive early. We will let you out (if you're lucky. If you're unlucky we'll put you in the Wicker Man).

lord nuneaton savage

13:22 / 29.04.05

This is the last time I'll be able to post before Sunday (computer at home broken). Just to say, I hope to see you all there. Do come up and say hello*.

*Not advised if I look stressed and am walking around grumbling about jack leads, unprofesionalism, cheap speed or lack of decent monitors. Gig stuff, y'know?

meme buggerer

15:51 / 29.04.05

Think we're definitely going to this... Gypsy - yer welcome to crash on our couch if you feel like a bit of third-eye-pummelling this weekend

meme buggerer

15:53 / 29.04.05

er, sorry - that could be interpreted as a bit rude. You know what's meant I suspect

rizla mission

17:41 / 29.04.05

Sad to report I'm probably not gonna be able to make it to this anymore.

Excuses as follows; I'm still absolutely shattered and have a rotten cold following All Tomorrows Parties - god, these things take a long time to fully recover from when you've gotta go to work everyday. Plus one of my friends is having a bit of a rough time at the moment, so I'd like to be around to, er, help out if needed I guess.

Hope it goes well, and give my love to Damo. Maybe see you at the next one.

I'm there.

Nice one all involved. Burning Idiot Noise rocked. Splendid, splendid...
