I'm quite liking the sound of this.........I'm tempted to get tickets on payday

£10 for the Aliens is worth that alone, if I catch another couple acts and a DJ then all the better

[edthefish]

who runs this?

Another great looking festival which I am missing out on because of being under 18

[jmitch]

How strict do you reckon they'll be on under 18s?

Anyone go to the London one last year who was under 18 around here?

[duncan123]

It say's I.D will be required. So unless you've got a fake one, you probably won't get in

[EJHH]

id say it'll depend on the venues - im 21 and still get IDed at Sleazies, where as at Captains Rest I would say it'll be no problem getting in. I'd say ABC and the Art School might be tricky, but Stereo and The Admiral should be OK.

Depends on where the bands are you want to see! Tickets are only £10 at the moment so take your chance with it

[jmitch]

Right, thanks. Might as well give it a shot. The over 18s I've been to here in Leeds have never stopped me getting in, but none were at these venues...

I might as well just give it a shot, if I can even persuade any of my friends to go with me.

[Kowalski]

and apparently The Aliens are playing at Stereo in Glasgow

[Paul ™]

Is this as well as their apparent gig in Glasgow on the 30th?

[Kowalski]

Nope it's moved from 30th to 23rd

[stramasher]

Only been into Stereo once and it was rammed even just for a small band.

Feck knows what it will be like for The Aliens? I missed the Classic Grand one (not interested in knowing how good it was , thank-you, la-la-la not listening) and gave our briefs to friends who said it was hoaching.

So, huge queue and a bottle-in-a-bag till doors open?

[Kowalski]

On the Glasgow line-up, The Phantom Band are well worth checking out.

[Paul ™]

Where you getting the line up from?

[Kowalski]

Where you getting the line up from?

[EJHH]
