Well well weeeell... Christmas' nearly here and all, we just thought you may need an update on the up-and-coming shows Sabotage is working on... let's start with the one-off UK  show of German psych-heavy-rockers COLOUR HAZE who we're proud to say will be appearing at (guess..?!) THE UNDERWORLD on December 5th, along with Exile On Mainstream Records riff masters END OF LEVEL BOSS and DUSTEROID.

Here's the flyer, just so you don't forget.. tickets priced at £6.50 adv.

And last but not least.....

THE ORANGE GOBLIN XMAS SHOW!!

September '06

Sooooo.... well, THANK YOU fuckers for turning up on the 27th, it turned out to be a great day, as it always should when a good band is in town. We'll post links to any reviews we find, if Thee Press wasn't all too busy pretending to talk about music at Reading, that is... Oh dear, don't we love slagging them off?!

Anyway, the news is.. the freshly announced Sabotage promotions Halloween festival!

Sabotage Uk in association with StonerRock.com and Ninehertz.co.uk are proud to announce the
ALL-HALLOWS FESTIVAL !
Three days of live music over the Halloween weekend. The event will take place as usual at the Camden Underworld in London on the 28th, 29th and 31st of October, and it will feature some of the best doom and stoner rock bands around.

Just have a look...

- Day One (Sat 28th) will be a day of pure old school doom, with the mighty REVEREND BIZARRE (Fin), one of Europe`s biggest doom metal acts, currently rumored to be calling it a day after this tour, so don`t miss out! Also appearing as special guests from Maryland, USA, THE GATES OF SLUMBER and their label buddies, London doomsters CENTURIONS GHOST.
- Day Two (Sun 29th) will see psych-groovy rockers JOSIAH headlining with support from three UK up and coming bands: the new Rise Above signing GENTLEMAN PISTOLS plus JECANO and RAISING SAND.

27th July '06

..yeah, yeah, it is hot.. but we're still working hard to bring you STRICTLY the best music and live bands around!

Unfortunately there's still no news on a new venue to host our monthly gathering, we've been refused many a times for the kind of music we play... well, as Bob Dylan said, y'know they refused Jesus too..

But we won't give up, and here we are with the freshly announced "thank fuck it ain't Reading" ROAD TO RUIN all-day special on Sunday 27th August, featuring the best of the UK underground scene along with some very special U.S. guests bringing their groove to us all the way fron Toledo, Ohio. Last time they rocked our shores we've seen them opening for Maryland in-famous Clutch, but if you still haven't heard FIVE HORSE JOHNSON go check them out HERE.

So, unless you have a better way to spend the bank holiday..

..GET YER ASS IN GEAR AND SEE YOU ALL THERE!

 

7th May '06

We're really sorry to announce that

next week's (May 13) Road to Ruin is cancelled

since the Tatty Bogle will be closing 6 months for refurbishment.
Incredibly, the incompetent staff & management at the venue failed to give any notice to promoters until now.

As this is not the first time they've pulled such tricks on us at Sabotage we are already hard at work to move R2R to another club.
So maybe our past venue was a joke after all, but we are damn serious, so

we'll be back on 8th of june heavier than ever!

Watch this space for updates.

Meanwhile feel free to email Tatty Bogle all sort of insults and abuse....
