BLACK COUGAR SHOCK UNIT need one more gig!!! (1 Viewer)

[Monk Dave]

The Galway gig for BLACK COUGAR SHOCK UNIT's jaunt to Ireland has fallen through, so if anyone can help fill that gap (preferably south of Dublin, as we'll be en route to the ferry) that would help a lot. We just spent 250 quid on ferry tickets, which SUCKS if the band only has two gigs over there, and a day off will suck even more. The date we need for them is Friday, 7th October.

The band is from Atlanta, USA and is "punk as fuck". They feature ex-members of PANTHRO UK UNITED 13 (No Idea Records), HOUSE ON FIRE and more. This is the second time they've been to the UK, first time over to Ireland.

if you want to hear them, there's MP3's here : http://www.thenewestindustry.com

There's an interview with them from AMP Magazine here :

If you can help, please PM me or something.

Cheers, Dave.

PS. they are playing Belfast on the 5th and Dublin on the 6th.

There's a chance they could maybe play with Zombina & The Skeletones and The Dangerfields in Derry that night. I'm just sorting the show now. Email me if you're interested...

Yep was at the all dayer. Frankie Stubbs was amazing as were black cougar. There were 3 people filming it and it may all come out on DVD sometime. Only about 100 people there which is a real shame.

I've just sent Dave a mail for ya Conor. Will let you know asap.

Conor,

I think there was a mix up with the last gig but they are travelling up from Cork to catch the ferry back at Rosslare. I'd say they'd be chuffed to have a place that night.

I hope someone can put these guys on! We played with them and Four Letter Word last night in Brighton and they blew us away, real fast and dark and they do a Naked Raygun cover!

 

[damien]

is it "treason"?

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

So,are they playing at all in ireland? I can't seem to find dates. If they do a NR song hopefully it's an earlier better one than Treason.

It's Rat Patrol and Four Letter Word did Black Flag - Six Pack!
