Buzzcocks Vs Ramones ? did Manchester?s punk rock Beatles ever share a stage with New York?s Paul McCartney inspired kings of ramalama? We think not, although we do seem to have stumbled upon a Fab Four connection, further emphasised by the fact one of Buzzkocks is called Paul Macca?
So, the Special K variant of the band, are with us tonight to pay fabulous homage to Pete Shelley and co?s love lorn, libidinal, romantic razor sharp punk pop. They really did have the tuneful pop flair of them mop tops from the previous decade too.
What a remarkable run of albums and singles they gifted us in the late 1970s. And what a stunning job of tribute Buzzkocks do. Peerless interpretations of all those kicking tunes, from Ever Fallen In Love to Moving Away From The Pulsebeat, What Do I Get to Noise Annoys. Absolutely superb, you won?t be disappointed Buzzers fans.
The Ramoanz ? likewise Dah Bruddas are expressed with loving attention to detail by these chaps. All the big choons, churned out with a cheery 1234 buzzsaw delivery just as you?d hope.
The original Ramones may all be gone, but The Ramoanz keep their fantastic flame well and truly lit.
DJs We Got Killers spin the roots, shoots, fruits and cahoots of both bands til 2am tonight, spinning off into all manner of ska, reggae, soul, disco, rave, indie and rock and roll as dictated by your feet on the infamous DC dancefloor.
The Dublin Castle is a legendary pub and music venue located 2 minutes away from Camden Town tube station. It has been run by the same family for over 28 years and features 4 live bands every night as well as a great selection of beers, ciders and wines.
There are DJs after the bands on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays and a fabulous jukebox in the front bar if you’re after a more relaxed atmosphere.
But what is it that makes the Dublin Castle the long-standing centre of the indie rock universe? Is it because it’s Madness’ birthplace? Because its stage has been graced by everyone from Blur, through Coldplay, Supergrass, The Killers, The Arctic Monkeys, Billy Bragg, etc? Is it because it was no surprise to see Amy Winehouse behind the bar serving costumers? Or Suggs? (who, mind you, tended to ignore costumers and serve himself) Or is it because far from being just another Camden venue it has established itself as an indie rock institution? The answer is that it’s not only because of its musical heritage that people come to the Dublin Castle, it’s because whilst you enjoy a pint, play some tunes on the jukebox, check out the live bands, get your dancing shoes on for our DJs, chat to our friendly staff or even stage-invade a little, you’re inadvertently being part of this movement the Dublin Castle leads, this cultural legacy. Expect no castle battlements. Just pure rock and roll royalty.
