Had a young band in the shop asking advice about geting gigs in Edinburgh. Always glad to speak to bands who realise that maybe asking a record shop for contacts might be a better bet than google. Tied them down to saying they were alt rock and listening reminds me of those young whippersnappers I teased before when they played the Grassmarket Festival These Fading Polaroids and Donnie Willow. I’m sure they’ll disagree. Again great song titles “Today is a Good Day, To Bury Bad News”, “Michael, It Was Just An Illusion” and “I Say Flash, You Say Thunder”. There is no harm in the odd comma !
Anyway they play Studio 24 on Friday February 17th with Constellations and Moving Mecca should you wish to check them out and they can be contacted via their facebook page http://www.facebook.com/yourfirstmistake?sk=info
If nothing else they look like they might give the Jetpacks a run for their money at 5-a-side.
