HWCH 2008 line up (2 Viewers)

[the departed]

you mean
Hard, Working Class Heroes?
sounds like a gumtree ad festival

hard? working? class! heroes..?

 

[ostrichsyndrome]

something like that.

this festival happens to be on the same weekend as Kraftwerk and the fringe festival. good planning obviously wasnt on anyones agenda

 

[Simplistic Cow]

It's a very confusing festival. Is it a showcase of Irish bands? Are they trying to get Irish bands signed? Are they promoting Scottish bands to an Irish audience? If you work for FMC/HWCH and are in a band do you get in every year? (Angel Pier). If your band has a meeting with FMC, do you have better chance of getting on the bill? What does FMC do apart from HWCH?

 

[evil bandit]

Are circus folk working class???

If so then the picture of Robin below should be on all advertisements for HWCH as he is (presumably) hard and working class and a hero

 

[Pedronimus]

What does FMC do apart from HWCH?

Have a gander for yourself..... http://www.firstmusiccontact.com/ ....music-promotey, advice-givingy, sometimes-fundy type stuff.

Hard Working Class Heroes, or How I learned to let IMRO make loads of money off me and stop worrying.

"Working Class" my fucking hole, they should re-name it the "Priveledged Middle-Class White Music Industry Recruits" fest.

All the Irish black, hispanic and asian bands overlooked again this year?

Disgraceful.

Disgraceful.

 

[Alan Remorse]

You can't play this if one of your members is on the dole.

Factoid.

Is that true????

 

[Flux]

Is that true????

I won't dob you in Al.

 

[Alan Remorse]

I won't dob you in Al.

haha well i work but surely loads of the bands would have people on the dole. Why is that rule there?

 

[george mcfly]

This is true. So there's no point in them calling it the Hard Working Class Heroes fest then when it's obviously NOT.

ah for fuck sake, it's just a fucking festival.

would you be happier if the name was more right on?

 

[Flux]

haha well i work but surely loads of the bands would have people on the dole. Why is that rule there?

Nah, it's not, I was letting my imagination wander.

That'd be a fairly bizarre rule.

 

[MaebhC]

Just hate them cause you ain't them.

Annnnnnyway - it's still up on the site, but You're Only Massive are NOT playing HWCH this year, as we got us a prior commitment.
