Continuing the de-centralisation of DiS meet-ups, here's an ace gig happening soon in Birmingham. I've put it on the Social board, as they're unsigned bands, but it will involve lots of FUN. I will be in attendance,(what other reason do you need?!) and hopefully Mr Creakyknees will too.

MoffFest 2005
Saturday 17 December
The Hare and Hounds, Kings Heath, Birmingham, 7pm
A mere £3

Featuring the super-talents of
BURNST (Manchester-based math-rock, one of my favourite live bands EVER)

MOTHERTRUCKER (ace instrumental stoner-metal)

THE HUBBLE CONSTANT (a band of physicists with enthusiasm for Slint and Shellac, amongst others)

also UNA CORDA and CORNISH TIN MINERS, who I know nothing about, but I'm sure will be good.

I'm not going to lie to you here - these are my mates' bands, and I'm shamelessly street teaming. But for anyone from Birmingham, or anyone who fancies a visit for a cheap night out, I promise you a night of drinking, loudness and hilariousness. x
