The Bull & Gate, Kentish Town, London
4.15pm-11pm
£7 adv
Silver Rocket, Monotreme and Noisestar present a V.F. Loud Half Dayer with a load of damn good live bands. Here are some rubbish descriptions and some approximately right stage times (subject to me being a moron and therefore quite wrong)
Trencher (Casio grind-core nastiness) 10.15
Cove (angular lo-fi riffage) 9.30
The Mass (genius skronk metal) 8.45
Bilge Pump (b*stard scaffolders from Leeds) 8.00
Diemunchmachine (Krautrock meltdown from Part Chimp spinoff) 7.15
Comanechi (girl/boy drums/guitar screamo) 6.30
Kyote (far too nice to go with the rest of this bill) 5.45
Silent Front (inspired post-hardcore) 5.00 (SF are mighty fine, miss them at your peril)
plus Silver Rocket DJs all day, merch stalls and fine company. Oh, and beer.
And yes I have procured a case of earplugs which we will be giving away on the day, so if you want to protect your ears at the gig and/or are fed up of hearing your sleeping partner snoring at night and/or they are sick of you punching them in the middle of the night to shut them up (hello Andy) then pick up a pair. Apologies to Part Chimp for stealing their idea.
The Bull and Gate are at 383 Kentish Town Road, Islington, NW5 1AA, it is very close to Kentish Town tube station, and unlike our all dayer last year the tube station will be open and the Northern Line is running! There are lots of food places nearby for when you get snacky and of course you can come and go as you please during the day. Come and support them as the threat of closure is still hanging over their heads - the venue is set to be turned into yet another block of flats next year, which both sucks and blows at the same time http://www.bullandgate.co.uk/
Now I must go and try and catch some of Melt Banana.
See you on Sunday
