The main priority of Insangel is to develop north-east based artists, by providing the bigger stage for them through arranging decent support slots and professional showcases at the dedicated 7 day a week venue, Insangel is also very keen in developing gig etiquette and stage craft as well as just arranging the gig.

Impressive gig list there. The Last Picture Show played The Archer back in August and I have to say I was well impressed by the venue, both with the promotional side of things as well as the helpfulness of the sound techs from soundcheck through performance. Its in a great location, near all the university residences - Id definately recommend it to all local Cumbrian/SW Scotland bands.

That was organised by Insangel - unfortunately, turnouts have always been a bit on the poor side

If you play over that way, you need to do some promo work yourselves.

where abouts is The Archer? because the Marduk gig looks inviting...

read things properly

[Jamie_t]

I'm on board to see marduk like!!

may also see colour of fire and the mighty colurblind!


paul- The Archer is in Jesmond, which is a couple of metro stops away from Newcastle city centre

[paulcarr]

ah yeah i see now!

cool

[who cares]

yeah, ma band played there a couple of months ago. it was a disappointing turnout but the promise is there. three unsigned acts don't tend to pull crowds but wi some of the acts they've got lined up it should be tons better. looks like an industrial block from outside tho.

[bigmouth strikes again]

i've never been to the archer yet. but two points:

- jesmond is hardly the centre of town as far as newcastle goes.

- i've also been told that the bar staff are unfriendly as fuck.

the head of steam on the other hand is literally a stone's throw away from the train station, and smaller, which has to make it a better bet for a cumbrian band wanting to get a foot in the door out east.

well done for securing aereogramme on a £4 ticket, mind - why can't motivesounds swing something like that?
