I like John, but.....
I honestly think that most of the people who have commented on here have got their finger more on the pulse than John has. Especially the 'underground' scene.
I work at a venue, my band (mentioned above somewhere - thanks popcult), play penty of gigs in Manchester, I put on about two gigs a month and on my days off I go and see live music in Manchester (and Leeds) and I can honestly say I never see JR at any of the venues I go to.
From Tokyo to Manchester
J Rock band My Way My Love play the Ruby Lounge in Manchester Monday 26/11/07. I'm going. They have UK release - Acupuncture Man - which can be heard on their website www.myspace.com/mywaymylove
Night & Day/olegrich
Ha! That happens a lot to me these days. Just get to talking about a band and then someone says 'yeah! saw them at Night & Day a few years ago'... and so did I.
Don't remember your dancing though....I might have tapped my feet to '10 miles to go on 9 mile road'
Whoaa..
Wrong Eyed Jesus released 1997 and I must have bought it as 13 year old in 98. I can still remember the strange look I got off the sales assistant like as if to say 'are you sure you know what you're buying - wouldn't you prefer Take That or something'.
Saw him at Night and Day a few years ago and will be there again on the 14 although I haven't bought his latest...yet.
I'm pissed off.....
... because there ain't no Manchester date.
Codes in the Clouds on tour
Codes in the Clouds play alongside Laymar tomorrow night in support of Library Tapes from Sweden at Manchester's Star & Garter.
29/08/07 Star & Garter, Fairfield Street. The band are also on a mini tour of the UK.
Comparisons with EITS are inevitable but who cares because what they do they do pretty well.
I don't have anything on which to play the black plastic stuff so that disappoints me somewhat.
Eels look a like???
Check this out then. This is a link (cut and paste) to a mypsace website for One Man and His Beard, he looks like E.
Dave (that's his real name) often comes to our gigs and has probably seen every band in Manchester at some time or other. He's a legend in Manchester.
Your Dad doesn't like Wolf Eyes ???
Hey my Dad loves Wolf Eyes and he aint Thurston Moore or anything....he's really old as well, like 60 something!
Oh no! Damn weather!!
According to the Manchester Academy website the Manchester gig is re-scheduled to Wednesday 11/07/07.

Playing Manchester 14/10/08
Mind on Fire/WotGodForgot are putting them on in at Upper Space Gallery, Northern Quarter, Manchester.
The band are pretty damn good and excellent musicians.
Lite impressed quite a few people in 2006 and even more so in 2007 and because of this there's a lot of local interest in them. Looking forward to it.
