Shite. Pure grade A shite. I've never been kicked out a venue for the music i play. That is of course until we went to this trendy poof pub. Our first gig of 2006 & the first in the capital. We got through the first song and the kick drum skin tore which was a bit unfortunate. But we were seemingly given the go ahead to play on, managed a second song, then were told to leave. Wankers! Stu gave the engineer the finger, not suprisingly, which led to abusive threats from the owner followed by a near brawl between the band and the bar staff. We were subsequently barred.

Whats worse was that the owner tried to pass the whole thing off as a misunderstanding to me telling me it was a kick drum problem & the music was fine blah, blah, blah, having 2 minutes earlier told the sound guy to get rid of us...

So a warning to all punk bands who go to Edinburgh to gig: stay away from this place coz you'll more than likely be told just to fuck off anyways...
