  1. We should be on first at 7:15 at the Dublin castle which is meant to be a fairly well known pub in camden. Only our second gig outside of Norwich so we're hoping random people will go and like us. It's £4.50 to get in if you get a flyer from us, we should be down there from around 3 promoting. http://www.myspace.com/kapoktheband
  2. Playing at the Dublin Castle in Camden tomorrow if any of you London Folk are interested.
  3. They weren't really that good despite the fact they turned up with loadsa flightcases with their name sprayed on and their own sound guy. It's still nice to say despite pretty much all the signed bands around here being terrible shouty indie.
  4. And then when we did our BOTB with judges and everything and there were joint winners as well. I don't know how many points this one was out of. Unfortunatly we didn't play well on the night. At least we beat a signed band in our heat.
  5. We nearly lost a school battle of the bands to some cover band who weren't all that good because it was down to a crowd cheer thing. We had none of our fans there and half of the crowd were there supporting that band. Luckily we converted the metalers to cheer for us

    Doms Drums

    I think it's meant to have been common knowledge for quite a while. At a gig i played the other week (when the anatomyofguns was playing as well) there was someone who had his drums set up left handed but played right handed. Was a bit weird.
  7. He is a cool guy indeed, he's been very helpful in sorting our live recording stuff for tomorrow. Not sure when we'll get the tracks up assuming all goes well.
  8. A friend of mines band got moved onto the main stage in the actual pub as they only had 4 people turn up, btw the main stage is rubbish and for covers. The headline band collect the money and then it's up to them to decide what they do with it, how much they give to the other bands.
  9. I really need some sort of decent software for posters, i only have word. Just in case you've seen the many posted around access and are thinking they're a tad basic. And i've had a little look on the B2 website and found out that 100% of money taken on the door is for the bands. All staff costs are paid by drink sales so as long as people go along to buy drinkd they'll let you play.
  10. He does, actually quite handy for getting gigs, like we're playing a sproweston sixth form thing i think with the fuzz who beat us in some battle of the bands grr, but on the B2 website it says we're headlining that night so it's all good.
  11. That's alright then, if you're free this wednesday we're finally headlining this year after many months. At B2 again and with good bands. £3 Entry and try and bring lots of people along. I'm also working on trying to get you on the bill for the gig with industry, i still need to win the others round as it looks like they want to get fraternity or stuck in conflict if you've heard of them. They're both fairly good bands who seem to love us and want to gig with us since playing with them last weekend.
  12. Can't say i've ever played either venue. I know we're playing a "Showcase with Kapok" on the 28th may at the Marquee, only time i've been there is to leave my bike as my friends mum, works there or something like that. Were you the person in the blue hoody at B2 last saturday? If it was then unlucky for attending such a bad gig of ours and enduring PSK past and present.
  13. Is that the one that was meant to be at the QC? We were meant to be playing there tonight until the people complained about noise levels or whatever happened.
  14. haha, make it a kitten tab night. Although i will have to check with the others, but we we have loadsa gigs there so why not.
  15. I just need to let them know that you can play it and then you just have to turn up on that date at 7 for a soundcheck.
  16. Yeah, it's with us, whether that's a good or a bad thing i don't know. Actually i bettter check with my bandmates that we can play but i can't see them not. We find it impossible to turn down gigs, haven't got a clue how many we have coming up at the B2.
  17. We're playing there on the 22nd where we're having photos, videos and live sound recording done so i'll have a word when all that's being set up. I can't say there are really any other venues i'd recomend.
  18. We've got one on the 7th July which i think is when you can make it. Don't really know much about it yet, whether or not it's actually one of our own. I'll let you know when i know some more about it.
  19. A few Norwich gigs thid weekend: Saturday @ B2 with Pin Stripe Knight - Free Entry Sunday afternoon @ Blue Lounge & Bar, Riverside U18 gig for once, acoustic and a BBQ £1 Sunday night @ the bridgehouse with the delany, stuck in conflict, fraternity and attention to detail, £3 entry & free BBQ. Looks like i'll be getting fat with all these BBQs
