Thursday 31st May - 2010 Unplugged

This week we'll be breaking out our acoustic set for the first time - 2010 Unplugged on Dale Road from 19:30 onwards - FREE ENTRY!!!

Gone are the drums and the fuzz so this time we'll admit it's going to feel a little naked for us. We'll be playing two tracks off the last couple of records which actually started off all acoustic but ended up electrified whilst we've been playing live. Now you'll get to hear them how they started life in the first place.

The rest of the set is purposely written to be acoustic, so we're looking forward to see how these tracks go down as they'll be recorded very soon for the next record.

There'll also be some great sets from Mike McMaster (legendary local bassist for Three 1/4's to Dust, Days of Descent / 250 calibres), Jason Barker (the curator of the 2010 unplugged night and lead singer for the mighty Exile) & local acoustic gem Matt McKenzie.

Don't forget there's obviously a bloody lovely selection of drinks both on tap & tucked away in the icy cold fridges to be served by Kev and the 2010 team.

PLUS.... Early doors there's an hours open mic session so get down with your banjo and crack one out....
