Doug and I went to Cabaret Voltaire in Edinburgh to see The Static and Devils Brigade. Both bands as well as Maxwells Dead who were also on the bill were awesome. Here's me with Devils Brigade/Rancid bass player Matt Freeman.

Played our 2nd gig at Bannermans with a band called The Schizophonics. We were supposed to be supporting The Dangerfields from Belfast but they split up a few days prior to the gig.

I am Ted Theodore Logan!
Went to see Hipflask and The Liberty Bells in PJ's tonight. Awesome gig apart from some bald, cro-magnun fuckwit who couldn't grasp the concept of a mosh-pit squaring up to Doug and being a bigger buzzkill than Buzz McKillington.
Anyway these guys were on first and the dude with the Steve Vai guitar could fucking shred. Still much like Steve Vai and Joe Satriani their music was all technical and no substance.

Horror...but with Glee
Spotted this fucking travisty in Tesco. What's next? This is Spinal Glee? Tenacious Glee? The Glee of Music? These cunts aren't going to stop until real music enthusiasts shoot themselves due to everything they love being covered in sugary shit.
Still I personally thing Rocky Horror still sucks anyway Ijust fucking hate Glee.

This is The Story of Denim Demon: Behind the Metalocalypse
I have a unit this semmester called Digital Story Telling where we have to tell a story digitally that subliminally advertises a ficticious denim company. This can be through video, animation, audio, websites video games or even things like Alternate Reality Games (things like sending people on GPS scavenger hunts and bluetoothing story clues to people on the bus)
We don't actually have to develop this media though we just propose the idea (if I go onto Honors Degree level I will have to build it though.)
My idea revolves around the story of a band called "Denim Demon" who come from a future where music is no longer a commodity so they plan to travel back in time to the 80's to play a mix of Heavy Metal/Glam/Stadium Rock and become massive.
Only they end up in 2000 and miss the boat. The story revolves around them trying to make it big.
I even did this AWESOME "Band Relationship Chart":

Thunderhorse the SeaUnicorn
So I'm delving into Power Metal spliced with Punk Rock with The Defenestrators and today I wrote riffs for a song called "Thunderhorse the Sea-Unicorn. Found this image of what a Sea-Unicorn might look like by way of google image search. The idea I had in my head though was more of a Sea Horse with a horn whereas the one pictured above has legs and hooves.

Bannermans
The Defenestrators played their first Edinburgh gig tonight here at Bannermans. Dead Agenda were a no show so the sound engineer got up and gave us some Sinatra and other Jazz classics. We had a fantastic gig, given that the majority of the crowd had came from Dunfermline. Nearly every song the crowd gave us awesome energy, whether is was singing waaa-ooooh's in Ode to a T-shirt, motorboating each other during Motörbate or just going tits to This Town (since it's about Dunfermline we dedicated it to them). A New Hope were quite good too.
