saw the dirtbombs last night, wasn't expecting much, but wow! what an amazing band! fantastic. i recommend you check them out if you haven't already. they have 2 bass players and 2 drummers... it seems to work well though...

also a cool night as 3 bands supported and they were quick changing over... i caught jacky-o (sp?) who were quite good and the mutts who were better.


And it's hard to be a human being, and it's harder as anything else, and I'm lonesome when you're around, and I'm never lonesome when I'm by myself, and I miss you when you're around.

well i'm glad someone has heard of them! i was beginning to think i was the hippest kid on the forum, and if that were the case i'd have to shoot myself, but i'm not even cool enough to have a gun, so i'd have to leap from my flat's window, but it's so high up and i'm a bit scared of heights... anyway yeah, was good. jacky-o, are they from manc? they sound nothing like manc's, but that is good! and the mutts? are they manc too?

i don't know! have they not been in the nme yet mike?

I have Dangerous Magical Noise, though I keep wanting to call it Dirty Magical Noise. Yeah, it rocks and it's got soul. I got one of the first 1,000 copies so it has a few extra tracks on it. My friend got the vinyl and that had some different bonus tracks. They're from Detroit, so they're semi-local (a couple hours away). They'll be playing at the Magic Stick on the 29th of September. And the Double Door in Chicago in late October. I should go to one of those shows. It's nice having Detroit and Chicago only a couple hours away, though I always choose Chicago over Detroit these days.

Inna zany combination of Wayne's Pet Youngin'!

No, i dont believe either are manc. Infact, i think the mutts are from or near brighton, since they are always playing here.
And, bumble, you silly boy, you should know by now, IM the hippest person on the forum. I live in brighton after all.

no, i was half right. jackie o are from manchester... i could have told you without checking actually as i saw the lead singer last night in fab cafe... but anyway...

"Opening up were Manc rock’n’roll darlings Jackie O with a set of fuelled power punk and grit, but the set of the night belonged to The Mutts.

A four-piece from Brighton, led by a Joey Ramone lookalike from Glasgow, theirs is a spicy, in-yer-face rhythm and blues almost reminiscent of a young Primal Scream, but at least one louder."

The Dirtbombs didn't excite me at all on record. Bog standard garagey blues by numbers. The guy has a good voice though I suppose, if a little un-interesting. I was gonna go just 'cos my mate wanted to but we had to be up at 4 to go to Reading.

Wow, didn't remember that guy Mike was such an idiot.

Just dug up that thread to say I bought If You Don't Already Have A Look today. Uh, that's all.
