GIG IN THE GLEN 2007 HEADLINERS: IT BITES
.
GIG IN THE GLEN SLIDESHOW
Gig In The Glen 2006 in Dunfermline was the best yet!!
Established in 2004 as a free music festival in Dunfermline, Gig In The Glen is rapidly establishing itself as a key date in the summer.
Gig In The Glen 2006 was sponsored for the second year by the Kingsgate Shopping Centre, without whom... Like Gig In The Glen it's getting bigger and better too!!
20th August 2006 saw a brilliant lineup of names - the weather was dreich but the spirits certainly weren't!! Four Good Men were phenomenal headliners and an honour to bring to Dunfermline. All the rest of the bands lived up to their reputations and rocked our socks off - see the blog for band details...
I'm now gonna take a wee rest, concentrate on my REAL job, focus on The Shine for a bit - then gear up for 2007!
As the media says, 2007 will be even bigger and better. Many thanks to PJ Malloy's for their support on the day... And continuing support in joining me in the organisation of 2007.
Rock on and see you doon the Glen in 07!!

GIG IN THE GLEN 2007 - PRESS RELEASE
CALLING ALL THE HEROES!!!
We're really pleased to announce that the Mighty IT BITES will Headline this year's GIG IN THE GLEN. This is a major bonus for the event and Dunfermline to see one of the finest British Rock Bands in the past 20 years live in Pittencrieff Park!!
Their set will be littered with classic hits from their past, as well as stonking new tracks, from their forthcoming (and as yet untitled) album, which the band are currently recording. Having just released a live album 'When The Lights Go Down', recorded on their near-sellout December 2006 UK tour, as Classic Rock wrote last month in their 5star review of it, "It Bites still have the wherewithal to maintain their status as a classic yet adventurous rock band". It promises to be a phenonemal closing set, not to be missed!.....and a fitting finale to the day, on what will be the biggest Gig In The Glen yet.
Immediately behind IT BITES, will be the brilliant ABEL GANZ from Glasgow. ABEL GANZ were formed back in 1983 and were one of two top progressive rock outfits ever to come out of Scotland - they still are!! With countless Festivals under their (albeit expanding) belts, stalwarts of the Classic Rock Society and the imminent release of their 6th studio album, "THE GANZ" are firing on all six cylinders!
Prior to being ganzed, you will have your socks rocked off by Kilmarnock's Mighty REDHOUSE. Redhouse bring together an incendiary rock show with power and melody... from supporting Bon Jovi at Hampden last June to Pittencrieff Park - We Are Honoured!!
Then there is the likes of the infectious BEATNIC PRESTIGE , the awesome Xi , the fast-rising and highly rated Rosyth Rockers THE DRAYMIN , and many more on the Main Stage.......and then there is the other two Stages (Marquee and Tower House), which are brimming with some of the cream of new and exciting local and national bands.
Full details of the 2007 lineup and information on each act coming soon in the Blog, and keep an eye out for more excellent updates on here and in bulletins, on a FREE Festival that is going to ROCK big style !!!!
