|  Local band takes aberdeen-music.com to 'court'
Aberdeen-music.com have been 'summoned' to defend themselves after an un-named local band accused them of making it impossible to get gigs in the local area after various comments were made on the website. The 'trial' will take place on STV show 'The People's Court' this Monday 25th at 9.25am on ITV1.
For more details, go here and here. |

Jesus, TV at it's best!
That is one crazy publicity stunt!
It stuns me at what people do to get noticed these days.

Incidentally, it's one of the regulars from Jen's work who's acting as lawyer in these shows.

Audioslave? Velvet Revolver?
Actually, that would be quite funny, seeing Slash haggle over how many cans of the rider he was due off Kelvin or someone.
