Jovel Music Hall, Münster, Germany
5th February 2014
Simple Minds – Greatest Hits Tour

The legendary venue Jovel in Münster/ Westphalia established its reputation with presenting a diverse programme of live acts and other events of high quality. In 2006 the former location had to be closed but they found a new home in a former car dealer and built a shiny new place that is now accessible for handicapped people as well. The venue has a capacity for more than 1,500 people and since it was sold-out that day, it was packed as well.

EMP Persistence Tour 2014: Suicidal Tendencies, Terror, Strife, Evergreen Terrace, Ramallah, Nasty, The Arrs

This is the 6th time that one of the biggest hardcore festivals is being held at 013 in Tilburg. Earlier editions of the Persistence Tour featured bands such as HATEBREED, SICK OF IT ALL, AGNOSTIC FRONT and MADBALL. This year’s edition is headlined by no one less than the legendary SUICIDAL TENDENCIES. Some years ago, this American crossover / hardcore band has already proven to be up to the task. Furthermore, hardcore-breathing band TERROR will hit the stage as well as STRIFE, EVERGREEN TERRACE and RAMALLAH. The tour will open with two more ‘local’ bands: the German hardcore band NASTY and the politically loaded French hardcore band THE ARRS.

Avrora Club, St. Petersburg, Russia
25th January 2014
Eisbrecher with a support of Laufderzeit

Outstanding German band EISBRECHER came to Russia for the 3rd time to play in Moscow and St. Petersburg. In Moscow the show was sold-out and was a great success! In St. Petersburg the fever about the event wasn’t weaker: long before the start of the concert fans of the band were coming to the club and at 7 p.m. they were even ready to break in. So despite the winter cold outside the atmosphere began to grow warm even before the official warm-up which was announced to be a band from St. Petersburg called LAUFDERZEIT.

Exit Calm

Hailing from Barnsley, Yorkshire, EXIT CALM are currently touring in support of excellent new album ‘The Future Isn’t What It Used To Be’ and riding high on critical acclaim, good, solid reviews and the growing question of why aren’t they huge yet? And squeezing into a sold-out Water Rats, a cross between a boxy mini-theatre complete with recently collapsed ceiling, and a living room, may prove to be last chance to see them in such, er, intimate surroundings.
