So does anyone know exactly what happened? Apparently the owner/manager/whatever of OAF got up three songs into Wow's set and asked them to stop, quite forcefully apparently. What was her problem? Was anyone there?
Any relation to The Red Paintings?

i got sent this
its at 'hollywood hotel' whatever that is
doris is correct, they are pretty rubbish
Judging from that you tube clip it was at The Hollywood not OAF. Doris who runs the pub is an amazing woman.
says a bit on polaroids of androids
the levity story side left names the hollywood as well.
now they're promoting it as something good!
and its a m&n article!
hmm!
shaun works for levity!!
street team alert!
Oh right, don't know why I assumed it was OAF, looked like it in that youtube.
i don't get why they'd stage something like this just to sell jeans?
ha, so everything thinks it was staged then. Maybe it was, seems pretty silly. fucken jeans companies hey?
they were all actors i think, doris was paid a couple of hundred bucks too and a pair of hipsters
wow, that doris is my hero. they should send her into modular....
I just wasted 5 minutes trying to find their myspace to see what they sound like, to no avail.
Naming your band a generic word that's also shared with the acronym of the biggest online game in the world is a really bad idea.
doris is old showbiz - she appeared in a movie with bob hope you know - and will tell you about it for hours.
she's fabulous - and would probably happily be involved if it was a stunt. she love the kids and their hippity hoppity music.

levity hires venue, band starts playing, venue boots band off stage.
doesn't this make levity look incompetent?
so these guys like Crystal Castles then
would never have guessed
I thought Dorris was no-longer the licensee at the Hollywood Hotel.
It seems to me that WOW are trying to get some credibility/notoriety out of this by making out that they were kicked off stage because their stage show was too wild for the venue. I'm guessing it was more an issue of noise levels not being sorted out before the show and the publican cracking the shits because it was too loud.
Oh, I think everyone is going along for the ride.

haha..... maybe you shoulda tried to cash in the emo angle rather than the electro clash angle.... seems more up yr alley
you do.
works now
uaregay_cunts is definitely not us sorry
but thanks for sticking up for us uaregay_cunts
and just want to clear this up, this is definitely not a publicity stunt, however when your label is basically a marketing company this is what happens. yes the video is way over the top, but these comments are out of hand. doris said it was too loud, we agreed to one more and everyone was happy. we kissed and made up with doris later.
har har
ie. everyone needs to relaxxxxxx
yay!
don't you mean chillaxin?

yes
all you need to do now is get kicked off stage at oxford arts, and this thread can be true!
we'll start again once it happens.
I have seen the band but know the guys (haven't seen them in ages though) and they are sweet dudes
so do they play WoW? Has that been established?
