LAST GANG IN TOWN STRUMMERVILLE BENEFIT & LAST GANG’S 6th BIRTHDAY GIG
THE YALLA YALLAS are a fantastic punk rock ‘n’ roll band from Leeds. Their name was chosen as a rallying call to unify. “So long liberty, lets forget you didn’t show. Not in my time” a sentiment expressed on an early Joe Strummer recording & one which struck a chord with the band and their audience. Some members have appeared in The Dead Pets, 3milehigh & The Gushers & they now share a common goal to bring anthemic mayhem to wherever they play. http://www.myspace.com/theyallayallas
THE TAGNUTS Cambridge “Gimp-Core” ska punkers are back! After almost a year away The Tagnuts are ready to do it again. This is the hometown night of a UK tour that sees them playing across the country.http://www.myspace.com/thetagnuts
THE TEN-O-SEVENS These four lads combine elements of early punk rock with the sound & attitude of the most obnoxious of garage punk bands. Their songs are fast, loud, snotty & catchy simple chord tight style tunes that will stick to your head like cheap superglue! http://www.myspace.com/krummylanky
THE DEAD BATTERIES They are fast, they have a lot to say, and they say it with venom! Great anarcho punx from Ipswich, don’t miss them! http://www.myspace.com/thedeadbatteries
There are plenty of great Strummer/Clash related Prizes to be won, Last Gang DJ’s playing punk & ska, drink promotions - it’s a Strummerville Benefit and Last Gang Xmas Party/ 6th Birthday all rolled into one!

We've finally sorted the revamp of United Moshers. There's loads more you can do on the site to promote your band.
New What's on gig guide, add your gigs let our members and visitors know where your playing!
Galleries that ALL members can upload pics to. We want to see your gig pics!!!
The old forum for posting about your band
NEW look profiles and buddies system
Directory
And we're working on news & videos sections, band profiles and more. Just going to take a while to get everything up and running as so much more on the site.
NEW TOWN KINGS - Back by popular demand this 9 piece bring their infectious and energetic brand of 2Tone, ska, reggae and dub back for a triumphant return to the Man on the Moon. Since releasing their debut album “Sound Of The New Town” on Do The Dog records the band have had gig and festival crowds across the UK begging for more. With a new studio recording in the pipeline, the future promises to be bright for the New Town Kings. http://www.myspace.com/newtownkings
RESOLUTION 242 - Their debut CD out on Do the Dog Records has had some great reviews and secured them airplay on Radio One’s “The Lock Up”. Resolution 242 have shared the stage with the likes of Inner Terrestrials and King Blues and played the Rebellion Festival in 2009. They sound great and they’ve got plenty say. They don’t claim to have the answers, but aim to raise awareness about important issues that they think need attention and debate, in the only medium they can… music…so get involved and enjoy! http://www.myspace.com/resolution242
CAPTAIN BLACK NO STARS - This Norfolk reggae collective have come a long way in short time, gaining fans across the region with their unique sound inspired by both the Trojan / 2Tone sounds and UK Punk rock. They bring the early Clash forays into Jamaican music to mind but with a contemporary slant. They kick off proceedings as the first of 3 Do The Dog bands that will have you skanking all night!http://www.myspace.com/captainblacknostars
LAST GANG IN TOWN DJ’s - Ska / Reggae / Punk

It's been a while, I've not been about much due to work load and also working on the new United Moshers website.
Bands, promoters and venues feel free to add to the NEW what's on. We would do it for you but then that's all we would be doing alday instead of getting on with working on the new sections. The search results were excellent with our old site, (the stats proved people were using the site to look for gigs/events.) they are going to be even better with this one
Just type in "alternative music community" or "NEW alternative music" in google and see the results for yourselves!!! and if you click UK we're even higher! Don't miss out on a great way to promote your band or gigs and events.
There is more options for members to do. New more indepth profiles, members galleries that are easy to add photos to, a new gig and events what's on section, brand new directory listings. But.. the old forum and accounts.
We've got more to add too, but for now tweaking and the occasional bug fixing on the sections that are already up. Plus adding odd listings in the what's on and directory.
P.s any current members may have to click forgot password link before they can login, this has not been the case for everyone but for some members. Any problems then just contact us.
Hey guys, Really enjoyed last night! We'd never been in "The Marquee" before last night, but we really liked it. Great music venue!!!!! Hopefully cya again sometime in the future :) Keep ROCKIN ;)
