Kaiser Chiefs have announced that they will play a secret gig at this year's The Great Escape festival in Brighton.

The band will play an undisclosed venue on Friday (May 9), marking their first show in the city since 2008. The time and venue of the gig will be confirmed nearer to the gig on @AmazonMusicUK on Twitter; on Facebook; or by visiting www.amazon.co.uk/TheGreatEscape.

Now from the other thread I thought your anti-Beatles stance was because you were some 50's rock'n'roll-head.

But now I know you appear to be a fan of one of my least favourite bands i'm very confused.

Will i Am the support act apparently. Venue: The Bulldog, St. James St.

errr nope, I am not a 50's rock'n'roll-head throwback by any stance. My preferred choice or genre / style is just basic Psychobilly which encompasses all kinds of influences including yes 50s Rockabilly, Rock'n,Roll, 60s Garage, Surf, punk, Ska, Country, Glam rock..... therefore this enable me to like all kinds of music indie included. I actually am myself not a big fan of the kaiser Chiefs and would not go and see them, I thought NSC might like to know, and I am sorry I did not check if someone had already posted a link or thread on the subject.

regarding my stance on the Beatles, that is just my view I honestly do not see what all the fuss was and is about them. That does not make me mad or wrong or right it is just a view.

I hope you are less confused.

Am I the only one that didn't read the thread title properly and thought that we were about to announce Kaiser Chiefs, the South African football club, as a pre-season match?
