The UG Festival is coming, and today we'll be unveiling the first steps in creating the reality. In a little over two weeks our first fundraisers will begin for the benefit of all UG members and, more importantly, their enjoyment. All of the following shows will be taking place in the United Kingdom and all proceeds will go towards more shows, more equipment and more staff for the festival itself.
We've been working hard to come up with good local bands and up and coming musicians to provide the best experience possible for a small and affordable price. All venues are 18+ at this point in time, though we're hoping to branch out and expand for the future. Constant development is always going on behind the scenes so that we can bring you the best show possible.
The following shows are ready to be announced:
25th of Oct '09
Sneaky Pete's in Edinburgh, Scotland
7pm Ј4 (Ј3 to UG members who register here)
The bands playing will be We Are Empire, Casino Queen and Sebastian Dangerfield.
27th of Oct '09
The Purple Turtle in Camden, London, Endland
7pm Ј5 (potential benefits under discussion for UG members who register here)
The bands playing will be Fury, Ghost In Mirrors, Sworrm, Chasing Melfina and David Ryder Prangley And The Witches.
Other confirmed shows include:
2nd of Nov '09 at Sneaky Pete's in Edinburgh, Scotland
5th of Nov '09 at the Wee Red Bar in Edinburgh, Scotland
We hope you will be able to attend and support the growth of UG's very own festival.
