Hughsie Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 I'm doing the promotion at the gig, so it's not through chpice really . I saw them support The Paddingtons last year, so I can't really remember that much about them to comment, which could suggest they weren't that hot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdhafc1874 Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Well; I'd bet I'm the only P&Ber going to see Journey tonight at the Edinburgh Playhouse. £35 a ticket and should be well worth it. 8pm start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Wouldn't say they sounded anything like the libs... not from what I've heard anyway.... Much prefer White Rose Movement to the fratellis anyway... go see them at the festivals most likely 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterhead Dave Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Tonight: The Needles @ Snafu, Aberdeen Fantastic. The supports were a bit dodgy though. The first band sounded like the Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster, and looked like armed robbers :blink The second were The Vandelays who sound like Weezer without the hooks. The Needles though, immense! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilthyMack Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Wouldn't say they sounded anything like the libs... not from what I've heard anyway.... Much prefer White Rose Movement to the fratellis anyway... go see them at the festivals most likely The Fratellis? I've looked up my gig review ( ) from OTB to see what I thought at the time. They sound a bit like The Beatles/The Clash/Oasis/The Libertines/Arctic Monkeys/Banana Splits. Now any band that sounds remotely like the Arctic Monkeys right now is going to be picked up by a label, hence The Fratellis. It was all a wee bit samey. Some Stand out songs 'If you're lonely' (?), 'Got ma nuts from a hippy' and one that ripped off. 'I fought the law'. I left during the encore which they didn't plan for. basically because the first song sounded like at least 2 or 3 they'd already played.Not a bad band but nothing special. Going by my first sentence they should've been ace! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GAD Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 The Fratelli's debut single sounds so much like the Libertines circa Up The Bracket it's funny. Bands with so little imagination should be shot. I think the Fratelli's are pretty good actually. Go my nuts from a hippy' s a great tune. Next gig I am going to is The Twilight Singers at tuts. Should be a good one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughsie Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 (edited) The Fratellis? I've looked up my gig review ( ) from OTB to see what I thought at the time. Going by my first sentence they should've been ace! The song with "If You're Lonely" in it's called Whistle For The Choir. It's a good song. They were actually quite good at the ABC the other week, better than I remembered them from when I last saw them certainly. Don't really think they sound much like The Libertines though.

Colin M Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Me too. Can't wait. This will be the first time I have seen them live. They're amazing, I actually think their records have lost impact after hearing them live. At the Barras to, it should be great 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
