Go on, have a free advert on me...
There's a band called Icarus Sister right, and they bought an ad in this month's issue of The Fly (out now, free, got Oasis on the cover, you can't miss it) but something went wrong, and a plain black ad appeared with their logo at the top of it... So, partly for that reason, and partly because they are playing Portsmouth (my home town) TWICE, here is a big plug for them, for free:
Icarus Sister October Tour Dewsbury Zoo Bar, Thursday 11th Liverpool Cavern, Friday 12th Leeds Royal Park Cellars, Saturday 13th Harrowgat Blues Bar, Monday 15th Halifax Puzzle Hall, Thursday 18th Portsmouth Havana Bar (acoustic show), Sunday 21st Portsmouth Wedgewood Rooms, Wednesday 24th Hastings Crypt, Saturday 27th
They're from Brighton, their debut single "Ghost" is out now on Holier Than Thou records, if you want more details don't check their website http://www.icarussister.com - because it's rubbish. They're recording another single in The Leveller's studios.
Normal service will be resumed ASAP...
The content here originally from my very popular (in the tail end of the '90s) site popex.com. Some of this contributed by other people, but mostly editorial originally created by me. I replicated this content here when the website finally closed down in the early '00s. Hopefully this brings back memories assuming you find it.
