Velocity Recordings	May 27 2008 8:42 PM CLUB VELOCITY MAY 30TH Date Friday May 30th 2008 Venue Rising Sun Arts Centre 30 Silver Street Reading Berkshire RG1 Doors 8pm Tax £5 on the door £4 flyer Bands DESDEMONA/SIXTY WATT BAYONETS/MIDIMIDIS DESDEMONA Local Living Legends. Lets be frank if it wasnt for Desdemona-then the music (Local) scene seriously would not be what it is now. There would be Pete and the Pirates, no Laura Marling, no Beggars and so on. They are main stayers of the Reading music scene. The great late John Peel loved them. The Germans still do. They basically run the umber cool/sassy music publication Artrocker. They are GODs in our house. www. myspace. com/desdemonapop SIXTY WATT BAYONETS Our fave female fronted punk/soul band for years. This will be their sixth ever gig and they have improved ten fold since their debut outing. They could be the revolution. Recently played on the near legendary Popscene Radio Show in Germany. Soon to mixed by Adam Whitaker (currently working with Amy Winehouse) This band are starting to burn-this is one fire that could never go out. www. myspace. com/sixtywattbayonets MIDIMIDIS Two sex GODS, who are creating their own punk rock. Musically totally on another planet. Their backing band is basically a Play Station. Some might call this chip music. Others 8 bit. Its like no other band on planet Earth. Imagine the posh boy from Strokes whilst Sonic Youth rip guitars until your ears bleed and 'crazy' beats being created on a small box. Awesome. www. myspace. com/midimidis
