UPCOMIN GIGS IN BIRMINGHAM

Me, Chief and Savva went to Nottingham the other week to see No Age with support from Lovvers and Human Hair (Check Stop Scratching for a well rounded report), and were well happy to see so many people there to see some good live action.

Not so commonplace in Brum- I think this is why we don't always get the bands we want playing (eg. No Age and Lovvers/The Death Set avoided us as well this week). Putting on small gigs is way to much of a risk for any independent promoter in the second city, and in turn, a viscous circle is formed- the scene diminishes, and so if by some small grace of God, we actually get a decent gig in the Sunflower or Rainbow, the turnout is shite and the promoter loses money and promises not to try such things again.

This is a terrible rant, not well thought out with little planning/construction, what else are blogs for hey!

Anyway... the reason for this tripe... Chicks Dig Jerks are putting two gigs on at the Sunflower in the next couple of months, Great Bands from all over the shop, it would be good if they sold out. Check it...

HOTT DATE

A new crowd turned up for last night's party, not so many familiar faces, but still an ace throw down despite some technical hitches. It was also good friend and all round nice gal Brazilian Maz's Birthday. She was throwing some wild shapes/squats/spreads much to Chief's bemusement...



New dates are coming soon, with special guests and shit. A new batch of youngsters will be hitting the Birmingham Scene (not to mention the PAL scene) and the Hott Date Crew will be there to welcome them with open arms...

Dirty Dogs... follow me





I found this Flickr thanks to The Serif

I bleeding love old American signs, they're ACE, even better when they are giant hound heads wearing Dirty Dog chef hats. Real good.

With love, a Dirty Dog.

John Lennon and Jerry Levitan

A really nice animation and a great chat. I was never really a big fan of JL, especially when he was mean to Forest, Forest Gump, on that chat show way back when. But he's real good in this.

♥ Charlie Cupcakes...


Not only is it Hott Date this coming saturday it's also this young girls (23rd) birthday! Come and join the celebrations, bring a cupcake or two!

As a birthday treat she's requesting you to slip a little bit of Electronic brutal death Mosh into your Pop punk set Mr Slevin.

Hanni Kohl - Chuck Norris to be exact.



Peace. xxx

Shoving things up your ass and writing about it for Vice Magazine.



I think THIS is probably the best thing I have read from Vice of late.

HOTT DATE: SATURDAY 23 AUGUST



HOTT DATE SATURDAY NIGHT.

If it is half as fun as last Sunday's (w/ SPECIAL GUESTS Mirror!Mirror! and The Mae Shi) then it will be way too much for me to handle.

To make things more fun to myself, unsure about the majority of everyone else, I shall be playing a lot- unsure about a whole set yest- of POP PUNK. All of my favourites, old and new. Brilliant.

out.

Big on the PAL scene.

Everyone else is hitting this blog thing. Thought I'd get involved. Why not , YEAH!



Despite the initial picture this is not gonna be an ass and titties site. I am unsure what it is gonna be about. Anything really- Anything that we like or dislike and want to talk about/discuss/bitch about.

Hopefully it will start to look better soon as well. I shall be a web geek soon enough.
