    I'm really not trying to be picky, and probably being thick, but which one of the bands are releasing a second mini album on Aug 16th?

  • YMSS Join HOTS Tour

    The Wedgewood Rooms date aint included above? Meaning different support?
    • Re: YMSS Join HOTS Tour

      yeh, ymss don't appear to be doing the portsmouth and london dates. *sob*
  • YMSS Join HOTS Tour

    Is there someone else for those two dates instead then?
    Or will it just be someone local...I shan't hold my breath to see who we get in that case (not that there's an exact dearth of suitable choices, just there's even more unsuitable lame ones around here too...).
    If indeed they bother with anyone instead at all and the soletary support goes on at 9pm (again, cheers).
  • YMSS Join HOTS Tour

    YMSS are great. New tracks they played on dates with Trans Am were awesome...
  • YMSS Join HOTS Tour

    hang on.... you're complaining about no london show.... seriously....? how the hell can you complain, have HOTS not played several of those sodding little shows recently, filthy mcnasty's or places like that, and komakino seem to be supporting in just about every other gig review i read these days from london. so please, don't hit me with that crap.

    now if the libertines and HOTS were to extend their grotty pub meanderings up glasgow way, or at least further than reading or wherever that place was that got trashed....

    this isn't a "bloody london......bla bla bla" rant, but just don't complain...

    apologies.

    ohh yeah, are komakino named after, or is it, a joy division song, or have i dreamt that....?

    • YMSS Join HOTS Tour

      Ok, just to clarify... Komakino are doing the whole tour, and YMSS are doing all the shows except Portsmouth and London (because I'm going away, and I ain't cancelling my holiday for no man!).
    • Re: YMSS Join HOTS Tour

      Jeez... take a chill pill.
      IT WAS A LIGHT-HEARTED COMMENT.

      GOOD GRIEF!!

      I WASN'T EVEN COMPLAINING ABOUT THERE BEING NO *HOTS* LONDON SHOW (BECAUSE THERE IS ONE).

      "this isn't a "bloody london......bla bla bla" rant"

      it quite clearly is.
    • YMSS Join HOTS Tour

      ...aye ooberal komakino is indeed a Joy Division song...we sound nowt like em though.

      well looking forward to seeing YMSS loads of times as i been hearing cracking reports#

        • Re: YMSS Join HOTS Tour

          komakino are a new joy division covers band from derby. they're almost as good as the stereomimics. hehe
        • Re: YMSS Join HOTS Tour

          its true!!...if we didnt have 'that' name the comparisons'd never be made!

          we're more of a drab emo band....

      Is this Ryan of Komakino fame? Sorry bud I've seen the band so many times in Moles but don't know any of the band members' names.

      Is the Koma playing either Portsmouth or Oxford,
