Complete Control presents
THE SCRUB
+ The Adult Section
+ Plan A
+ Eastfield
Doors 8.00
£6 or £5 with flyer
Bristol based seven-piece outfit The Scrub have been building a strong following for a couple of years now, notching up support slots with the likes of RX Bandits, Shootin Goon, Fishbone, Howards Alias, Adequate Seven, Babyhead, Long Beach Dub Allstars & King Prawn in the process. They play a highly addictive and uniquely dark take on the old skool 2-tone ska formula, with moderate lashings of hip hop & skacore thrown in for good measure.
Main support from The Adult Section who embrace the ethos of punk rock with a glamorous DIY attitude, fronted by ex-Jazzbutcher Dooj, Johnny, Dee and Mert who invite you all to come on down to the rock 'n' roll party.
Before that we've Plan A, formed in late 1998 by ex-Wildheart Jef Streatfield, when being part of a scene wasn't included in the job description, but passion and sincerity was. They have released an EP called 'Just Leaving Acton' [produced by Waynne Smart], written too many songs for an enormadome tour and honed the live set to a frantic mayhem of punked-up Rock 'n' Roll. Having gained a number of favourable reviews in various magazines throughout Europe playing with bands such as The Yo Yo's, Grand Theft Audio, Reel Big Fish and Mika Bomb and as many other excellent bands as possible they are more fired up than ever, so don't miss them.
Eastfield make their fourth visit to the Luminaire and are rapidly becoming the nerest thing Complete Control has to a house band. We make no apologies for this. Their uncompromising brand of full-on Urban Punk will always be welcome. Only thing is they'll soon no doubt be far too big time for us and you'll have to pay eighteen quid to see them at the Astoria or somewhere. Be at this one so you can say "I was there."
