      I feel the same way.

      Bong are from the UK though.


      Ah, searched for them on MySpace, but could only find this band in Cali. Not bad actually! Anyone got a link for Bong? They would be decent to see in Sheff.

      I've invited Moss, so we'll see how that goes. It'd be one hell of a sludgey line up should they be able to make it.

      I'd love to invite Orange Goblin or Electric Wizard, but there's no way I have the resources for a band like that. Maybe one day...

      Bong link?

    • i can't get on myspace to check i've remembered right but try www.myspace.com/landbong666

      could be well out!

      moss would be awesome.

      wizard and goblin would both surely want £300 plus? we need to make puppy eyes at slomo for that sort of thing...

      EDIT: and obviously everyone knows i love white fang!

    •  CareyCarey
    • how does ANYONE afford that?

    • And those guys still work day jobs! I don't want to assume or nothing, but they must doing pretty well for themselves.

      Tom, when you say Moss barely ever play live, might it be fair to assume I should also try elsewhere, rather than relying on them getting back to me with an answer?

      Might try Bong

      who would have guessed eh?

    • as good as moss / bong are. you seem to be looking at two completely different ranges of bands when you are also talking of wizard and goblin.

      that goblin rider / fee is over the top but then thats what happens when they start playing big festivals, they price them selves out of smaller shows.

      oh and i have it on good authority that wizard will never tour again.
    •  HogTeamHogTeam
    • really.....gutted.

      would have never been able to book em anyway but would be nice to see wizard in sheff.

      as in do a series of dates?

      the rise above mailout seemed to imply a fair few one off gigs over summer, festivals etc.
    •  PodgePodge
    • apparently they don't want to tour.

      Jus did an interview when the last album came out saying he didn't like touring but would maybe do a few one off dates. they have done chuff all for the release of this new album, surely that would be prime time?
    •  CareyCarey
    • don't think if i was in a band i'd like it much myself.

      and i'd travel a good way to see them and so would most fans so why not minimise the effort? how long have they been together in some form anyway, fifteen years?
