Lower Deck, Portobello, Dublin. Friday 11th February 2005, 9pm. €8. (This is the same night as the Redneck Manifesto play in Whelans. Remember, you can leave that gig and still make it down for most of this one! And it’s only down the road.)

Saturday, February 19th, Belvedere, Great Denmark Street (off Parnell Sq.), 10pm, €12.
Risc and The Alphabet Set present the first visit to Dublin of Milwaukee-based avant-break-manglers Zod Records. For one night only these behemoths of the American broken-beat scene
hit our fair city with their jaw-dropping percussive chicanery. This is the final date of their 2005 European Tour to promote new releases by Curtis Chip, Emotional Joystick, and Viberaider. Risc Record’s own Herv and The Alphabet Set’s Thalamus provide support on the night.

The new single by Betamax Format:
The new single by Betamax Format, ‘XXX Robot’/’Raus! Raus!’ will be out on the 16th of February. The band will be touring around Ireland with the Wedding Present after the release of the single. The early-80's-synth-soundtrack-inspired new wave knife fight of Betamax Format will kill us all. Dead.
