Galaxy Express/Moonshiners/We Need Surgery/The Koxx – New Year Show

FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT! Freebird and FF battle it out for your New Year’s Eve attention. Club FF are putting up an impressive line up.

Galaxy Express – pure RAWK shouty AC/DC milkers

Moonshiners – sorry, no idea

We Need Surgery – New Wave/Interpol/Joy division-y, but with more keyboards and optimism

The Koxx – Brilliant new band with a lot of covers but a lot of potential.

Let's see. Amps - check, instruments - check, shirts...CHECK.

No idea which order they’ll be playing in (although chances are it’ll be more or less what’s here).

Dec 31st update:

According to Wassereis from the fantastic VIOLET SWEETS blog, DGDB‘s New Year’s Eve line-up includes Guckkasten, Serengeti, Kingston Rudieska, Telepathy and others; Club FF also has Phonebooth, Pony, 3rd Line Butterfly, huckleberry fin; Club Ta has Hi Mister Memory, Ynot, 불나방스타쏘세지크럽 and Playgirls etc.

Thanks for the info

PONY reject video SHOCKER!

PONY had long been on my list of bands to make a video for. They’re genuinely good with an excellent CD (available in CD shops – if you can find a CD shop in Seoul, that is) and absolutely look the part.

I  played email tennis with them about making a video. After some initial interest, they recently responded with this bombshell:

Actually vocal’s girlfriend has already made the music video hehe. thx you for your interest for our band.

Argh – the pain of rejection! It’s like school all over again.

(However, it’s the first outright (video) rejection I’ve had – usually, I just get the silent treatment. So that’s one good thing, isn’t it….isn’t it!??)

Well, I still like the band and hope that one day they’ll want one of my videos.

Their current videos can be seen here and here (a teaser for the first album), plus the usual lo-fi montage kinda stuff here.
