Saturday
\n7 July
\n2012<\/div>\n

I hadn’t been to a gig in ages, I mean a proper loud and messy gig<\/a>; I also hadn’t been to the Jolly Roger before, so took the opportunity to combine the 2 on Saturday for a night of heaviness courtesy of Dead Lucky<\/a>, The Bone Collectors<\/a>, The Pits & The Dollfins.<\/p>\n

\"Dead<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Jolly Roger’s an interesting place – festooned in pirate decor and complete with an isolated gaming area around the back, it’s visited by some odd people. It’s cool though, in that alternative, kinda dodgy way.<\/p>\n

Saturday saw not only an impressive line-up of bands, but also a mini art exhibition, featuring psychadelic naturalistic paintings, trippy black and white drawings and quirky illustrations, all of which were really cool.<\/p>\n

The first band up were The Dollfins. I recognised 2\/3 of them from Beach Party<\/a>, and their sound was pretty similar too – retro surf punkiness courtesy of 2 guys and a girl, for which I think they chose a great band name.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
