[Stockton Fringe]

FRIDAY 3RD AUGUST
21:45 The Ordinary Boys
Top 10 hits, TV controversy and endless tabloid headlines! Everything the perfect pop band could wish for…

20:30 Rumblestrips
NME and Radio 1 faves, a life-affirming, rockabilly rattling, brass-drenched Dexy’s for the 21st Century.

19:30 The Romance
Where The Kinks meet The Clash in a big, messy pop-punk scrap!

18:45 Slow Club
They’ve lost their conkers, they’ve lost their marbles… but they’ve found utterly charming, lo-fi folk-pop.

18:00 The Lurios
Cracking Libs-esque indie pop with a pure Teesside slant that’s made Radio 1 sit up and take note.

17:15 Alsatian
Ear-battering garage punk creating a Teesside tsunami amongst the national rock glossies. ‘Captivating’ – Rock Sound

16:30 Misled Heroes
Fine shouty-ska punkers, freshly returned from gigs with Little Man Tate and Bromheads Jacket.

15:45 Get Vegas
It’s Led Zep, it’s Free, it’s Bad Company… it’s proper old school rawk! With great big solos and even bigger hair.

15:00 15 Minute Society [info to follow]

14:15 3 Foot Ninja
Rifftastic old-school punk – think a fresher-faced Ramones scribbling lyrics in their schoolbooks!

13:30 Grandma’s House
Jiggy, shaky, rattly indie from these Boro teen starlets with a burgeoning live following.

12:45 The Alberts
Floppy-fringed, guitar-laden teenage indie heaven!

12:00 The Rivettes
"Classic rock with a face lift” is how Stockton’s newest raucous fivesome describe themselves. Who are we to argue?

[Simon]

Twitchy, arty punk terrorists whose ‘We Are Not Robots’ EP has been an underground smash???

whats that all about then?  

[Kingers]

I know!!! I'm a bit puzzled by that too. What's it like being an "art punk terrorist"?!!!

Well done on getting the gig by the way, i'll deffo be down for yers - this whole day looks really good (although i'm not keen on the headliners)

[Simon]

thanks alot
im really happy we're playing on the same day as Get Vegas!
they're a great band, and they pulled out of the last show we had with them

not to mention the fact i still cant believe we're actually playing this year!
cheers to Paul & the rest of the fringe team for making a slot for us!

[Kingers]

im really happy we're playing on the same day as Get Vegas!

I think they'll impress alot of people on the big stage, quality band

[dirty dan]

yeah get vegas tight as fook, class lads as well

[peterTMH]

chuffed with this line up like, want to see most of the bands on there

slow club are mint aswell

[claire_smc]

Last time i saw Get Vegas they blew me away, looking forward to it. I'm seriously excited about the line-up on all three days, there's at least 10 bands I really like spread out over the weekend

Twitchy, arty punk terrorists whose ‘We Are Not Robots’ EP has been an underground smash???

whats that all about then?  

Ha!  Don't worry - new description going up soon; our 'one line writer' has [understandibly] mistaken you for "The Rivetes" - easily done....

[Simon]

Thanks!

[Stockton Fringe]

No worries; easily done - I might start a band called "The Roling Stones" or call myself "Morisey"

Careful though, you may have a court case on your hands if you get successful?  

[Simon]

haha, we do have the accented é though
i think that would settle it

blame our drummer for the name, i cant say i ever was too keen on it

[Kingers]

I've heard loads of rumours that The Romance are splitting up - this is still on their MySpace - is it their last ever gig or something?

[FBI Agent Riggall]

they aint playin they told me.

[Simon]

i actually really like this day!
some of the best local bands around are on!
well the ones i recon are good

i'll defo be around for: 15 Minutes Society, Get Vegas, Alsatian & The Lurios
and TBC, ive heard alot of good things about!
