We like the Fleece. Yes we do. And we like quality rock bands that don't give a hoot about doing what 'should' be done. So it gives us great pleasure to announce our next gig as support for Bitch Magnet.
Despite their relatively brief tenure, Bitch Magnet were an understated yet significant influence on some legendary bands, including Battles, Don Caballero, June of 44 and many others. Their last gig was almost 21 years ago. They have reformed due to an invitation from Battles' Ian Williams to play ATP's Nightmare Before Xmas, and this rare Bristol date is their only UK headline show outside London.
Also supporting are Model Boat, who sound very promising from our initial inspection of their Bandcamp page here: http://modelboat.bandcamp.com/
And last, but not least, the omnipresent icon of the Bristol music scene, Big Jeff is opening with a solo set. Not to be missed.
Tickets are £12.50adv, but if you want to be added to Dead Maids' cheap list then it is £8. Just contact us via any of the usual methods and we'll put your name down.
