Saturday 24 May: Yashin, Allstationsdown, From Collisions I Collapse, Calling all Superheroes, No Way Back

This gig was at the Hive

No Way Back

As far as bands go these guys are a pretty young band but my, they are pretty awesome. They played a real short set but it was so tight it was brill. I think we can expect a lot more from this band.

From Collisions I Collapse

This is another band with quite a lot of promise. I loved the cover of Vanessa Carlton that they did...very clever so yeah look out for these guys and try and see them if you can. You will be totally surprised by them.

Calling all Superheroes

This band are also musically good. The singing needs a bit of work but with more gigs and more practice that will be fixed. The stuff that these guys played were good and they know how to work the stage. Good stuff

Allstationsdown

Yet another established band who are truly awesome. It is so good to see bands who actually know what they are doing on stage so I recommend that you see this guys if you get the chance. They are musically brilliant and they are as so amazing to watch

Yashin

Finally the band I went to see. These guys were awesome again. I love what they do. I love that they do it so well. Everything about these guys just blows me away. It was gutting that they were only allowed to play for 20 minutes but it was the best 20 minutes of the gig. Just amazing

Thursday 15th May: Drive-by Argument, Page 6

This gig was at Heriot-Watt Student Union.

I didn't really like these guys. I will say that they were well rehearsed etc but everything just sounded a bit samey and they songs were so repetitive. These guys are perfect for anyone wanting a gig where they can dance.

Ok so I absolutely adore these guys. Everytime I see them they get better and better. Their songs are so different and these guys know how to own a stage. I love the awkward movement that these guys have got going on and I will definately be going to see them again and again. Just love it.
