Cool the Fractions, i know all of them, went to my school.

 

 

 

Edit: Saying that, its nothing like the original line-up four years ago. One has gone to new Zealand, one has left the band. I know two or three of them now i think...

Psalm 23 by Flat Back Four is track 14 on the SLit compilation CD that again will be free tonight (while stocks last) for you lucky buggers! see you laters!

I like the word 'free' - like in the late 80's I was scratchin around for my free nelson mandela but could i get hold of one - NO!!!

The Fractions - fast energetic ska-punk - young lads - very talented - excellent.

 

Flat Back Four - real quality - hard to describe - a mixture of US Punk/Hardcore and Oi - funny, fast and in yer face - surprise

how good they were!

 

Flat Caps & Boddingtons - Irish Folk/Punk - not my cup of tea but they were alright.

 

All in all a brill gig - good mixture, shame about the turnout - got to try and build this up so we can get regular punk nights back in Owdum and may lead to bigger bands but the 2 gigs I have been to have been highly enjoyable.

 

Keep it going Diggle, I'd be gutted if it falls flat on it's ass!
