The Curious Incident of co-promotion and other news.

Screaming Ground has news. news news news.

Firstly, as you can tell from the previous post, The first Screaming Ground promotions night of the year was a success. Cheers all round! But we cannot dwell on the past and we must move on to new things. The first new thing being an event of titanic proportions. An event that will be so good men, women and children will weep. This event being..

A co-promotion between Safetydance and Screaming Ground. We Proudly present.

BURIED IN POMPEII - myspace.com/buriedinpompeii

See. Told you it was awesome! This will all be taking place on the 28th of February at the Queen Charlotte, for the price of 5 English Pounds.


This line up is exciting not only because of the bands, but for me personally its extra special because its the sort of line up that I want to one day have as a standard: A great touring band who want to play in Norwich and 3 of the creme de la creme of Norwich bands. Screaming Ground is very much about Local Talent and hopefully it will stay that way. But having well known bands from outside of Norwich come and play is also a big part of keeping a scene going.
This is also special to me because I get to work with Woody (Safetydance). The ammount of awesome bands he has put on in Norwich over the years is astounding and it is a privilige and pleasure to work along side him.
Maybe one day we could put on an all dayer, along with In An Emergency Dial and WombatWombat and have it be the best thing to happen to Norwich in a long time! hah.

This is pretty much a one off though, for the time being. I'm all for helping out and things but Screaming Ground has to establish a name of its own with some awesome gigs too. Speaking of which... 2 Very exciting gigs are happening in March and May Respectivly for Screaming Ground.

Not all the bands are confirmed yet though... But once they are it shall be known across the land and beyond!

Over and out, for the time being! x
