Pigeon Detectives

[Goochy]

Seen on a few sites rumours of Pigeon Detectives (Rated as Strong Rumour on EFestivals). Really hoping this one pulls through, would be amazing!

On tour in may and june. It ends in London on the 6th so its lookin good.

I bloody hope so.

[Ming The Mercyless]

They are a good live band.

[carmenb]

fingers crossed

Never heard any of their stuff. I will give 'em a go. You all seem to think they're worth it.

I think they're shit. No offence to anyone who likes them. In my opionion there just bland, nothing special. Them, the hoosiers and scouting for girls are the three worst bands on the line up IMHO.

I agree with the Beast.

3 weak bands.

Who's 2nd albums will FLOP.

They'll turn up, and they'll get people LEAPING!

Bit bland IMO and don't come across that well live.

As for The Hoosiers and SFG, less said about them the better!

Saw PD last month and they were outstanding! No complaints. They were brilliant at Reading as well.

Plan on seeing them again in Leeds on the 3rd of May. Last game of the season, The Football League will hand us the League 1 trophy and the gig will be the biggest party of the year. Fact.

Yeahhhhhhh

Broke my heart at Leeds to see the size of the crowd for the crock of w*nk that is the PD, to then see it shrink to about a tenth of the size for dinosaur jr.

People have no taste.

Another flash in the pan. It's a silly name as well.

i remember seeing them bout two years ago with we are scientists thinking what the f**k are you thinking calling your band the pidgeon detectives, they're ok in small doses but there's not exactly a lot to them. I don't mind sfg and the hoosiers though, catchy but inoffensive music.

[Kris W]

SFG and Hoosiers are very housewife in my opinion. A bit like the Feeling. They'll go down very well at the IoW. Its a very housewifeish crowd.

Does it really matter what the bands name is?

Here's the link for the PD's set at Camden Barfly - as I said, I'm a fan, but can people who've seen them live tell me if this is what they're really like live? If it is, I shan't bother paying money to see em...

Awful band. This festival does have some decent acts though like Iggy + the stooges, Ian brown, sex pistols etc.

[LeBenji]

I'm all over the Pigeon Detectives, as someone else said, they were amazing at Reading, truly marvellous!

Hoosiers - not fussed by their music but I know the lead singer's sister so I might just try to somehow get some kind of backstage giggles with that. Blaggin' is the name of the game!
