Babar Luck Tour 2010

Babar Luck is awesome! His new outfit East End Trinity returns to his punk rock roots and is a perfect anecdote for those missing the wonderful King Prawn. Supporting them is his other musical effort Babar Luck World Citizen Folk Band. It’s enough to brighten any Winter day!

Rebellion Festival 2010 Teaser

Aaah, the teaser. Well, here it is, a video of the headliners Bad Religion. In the next few days photos and videos of the lovely little festival that is known as Rebellion Festival, 2010.

London Brawling Tour with King Blues

The fantastically named London Brawling tour featured some of the captial’s finest bands for an allied assault on the rest of the country. Although there aren’t photos of all the bands (they’re beautiful faces broke the camera), they include Moral Dilemma, Dirty Revolution, Mouthwash, The Meow Meows and others.

The photos are from Nottingham and Birmingham. For both shows, the crowds were massive, and for the Birmingham show in particular, the venue was like a sweatbox. The King Blues may have a different line-up, their style may have moved on, but they still put on a good show!

All photos belong to us.

Less Than Jake European Tour 2010

Aaahh, Less Then Jake, a band I like to refer as a ‘gateway’ band. They’re like a door to much harder bands, but can still offer you a good night of crazy fun times. It’s hard to believe the band have been together for 18 years! Go and join them in a skanking frenzy when they tour around Europe in November.

Punk & Ska at Scruffys, Jun 18th

Good Day Sir/Madam, if you hate football and hope it navigates itself into a black hole please read Option 1. If you love the game and can’t wait to see (insert country here) beat Algeria…I mean (insert country here), then please go to Option 2.

1. Punk and Ska at Scruffys will be hosting an ‘Anti World Cup’ evening on June 18th with some super awesome bands playing their musical masterpeices. Downstairs at Scruffys, where Punk and ska operates, there will be no game…so you will be shielded from all the sensationalist hype, and drunken cheering (well not the latter). There is much fun to be had. So be there…!

2. Can’t wait to wach the game on the 18th? No fear, Scruffys has screens debuting the game!! And when it’s finished you can pop downstairs and celebrate in our ‘Pro World Cup’ Party. It’s perfect…England/Algeria match, then some wicked ass bands to keep you in the right mood.

It’s a winner for all. And it’s ALL ABSOLUTELY FREE! See you at scruffys!
