Remember Chernobyl
DATE: 03/23/2008 08:22:13 / MOOD: other
Sad Society are included in the line-up for Remember Chernobyl, a two-day charity punk festival in Glasgow featuring Scotland's top punk bands in aid of Chernobyl Children Lifeline. The event takes place at The Attic, 56, Dundas Street, on Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th May, 2008, and admission is £10 for one day or £15 for the full weekend. Sad Society will be playing on the Sunday, and it will be our first gig featuring new guitarist, Euan 'Bally' Ballantyne. Bassist Michael Laing will be wearing breeks which are at least fifteen years old, and singer Deek Wilson will be talking about jobbies and skid-marks. Mass-pogoing, mohicans, ripped stockings, big boots and hardcore songs with loads of swearing in them: it's all going to be happening at The Attic in May, so be there!

Sad Society & Billy Liar at Bannerman's, Edinburgh on 28th November
DATE: 11/10/2007 09:48:19 / MOOD: other
< P align=justify>Punk Off is on the 28th November at Bannerman's pub, 212 Cowgate, Edinburgh. There will be two bands on; Sad Society: "Where the fuck did these guys come from? They produce ultra-confident, addictive, anthemic punk rock, brought to us with that distinctly Scottish disregard for subtleties or arse-licking"; and Billy Liar: "The vicious, spiked belligerence of The Pistols in full copulating deviancy with the gentler, deep thinking soul of The Cure's acoustic manhandler Robert Smith." It is £4 on the door or £3 for Edgar members. All proceeds go to Shelter Scotland. Come along to support the local music scene, or to support Edgar, or Shelter or just because you like beer. It will be fun!

My vanishing MySpace page
DATE: 10/27/2007 13:11:46 / MOOD: angry
Hi folks, Mike from Sad Society here. I appear to have had my personal MySpace page deleted. I suspect I know why this has happened, and the reason, if my suspicions are correct, is absolutely pathetic. Anyway, there's no point in me getting angry about it. I'm not going to waste my time and energy setting up a new MySpace account when I'm already on LiveJournal, but I'll be very sorry if I lose any of my new MySpace friends as a result of this. I would therefore like to point you towards my LiveJournal. It's free to set up an LJ account, and in my opinion it's a much better blogging-site in any case. Please sign up and add me there. Cheers! Mike.

Sad Society plus Dogsflesh & Fire Exit at The Capitol, Glasgow, on Sunday, 25th November
DATE: 10/09/2007 08:11:24 / MOOD: happy
Sad Society are pleased to announce that the Glasgow Gig Collective are putting us on at The Capitol, 468, Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, on Sunday, 25th of November. We are reliably informed that The Capitol is an excellent venue (it's just along the road from The Garage and Nice'N'Sleazy) and that the monthly punk gigs there are always heaving. As it's been quite a while since Sad Society have played in Glasgow and this will be the first gig we've played there with the new line-up, it'll be a good opportunity for Clydesiders to come and check us out. Admission is £5. Don't miss it!
For anyone who'd like to travel through from Edinburgh to see us, ScotRail has a special fare for groups of four: £18.60 return, or £4.65 per person (details here). The gig starts at 7:30pm and we'll be the first band on at around 8:30, so we recommend travelling on the 6:30pm train from Edinburgh and returning on the 23:30 from Glasgow. That way, you get to have a piss-up on the train too!

Sad Society plus Chinese Jocks at Henry's Cellar Bar, Edinburgh, on Saturday, 20th October
DATE: 10/07/2007 09:07:15 / MOOD: happy
Due to circumstances beyond our control, our previously-arranged gigs in Edinburgh at Bannerman's on the 12th of October and The 3 Tuns on the 19th have been cancelled, but we're pleased to announce that we'll be playing at Henry's Cellar Bar, 8, Morrison Street, on Saturday 20th. Our last gig there was a stormer thanks to a great crowd who got right into the spirit of the occasion, and our next promises to be no less pogotastic! We'll be supported by Johnny Thunders tribute-band Chinese Jocks, admission will be £4 and the gig will start at 7:30pm, so make a date and don't be late!
