Emergency Red, Haiku- My-IQ, Page 6 and Alfonzo Kick start 2004 with a selection of local noiseniks running the gamut from scuzzed up punk psychedelics to straight down the line funked up rock. You know it makes sense. The Commp/ex, Edinburgh, Sat 10 Jan.
Justin Timberlake and Dizzee Rascal This is supposed to be a quiet time for gigs. a time to sit back and reflect on the previous year's highs and lows, to take stock of life. So how come we have one of the biggest stars on the planet winging his way in for a three- night residency? Garage scamp Dizzee Rascal ups the credibility factor. See preview. SECC, Glasgow, Wed 74-Fri 7 6 Jan.
Razorlight They're (above) starting to attract all kinds of hype. so check out if they really are cutting a swathe through the world of indie or are the latest press darlings with nae substance. King Tut '3, Glasgow, Thu 75 Jan.
Primal Scream Ok they may have been faultering in recent years. but these kings of drug drenched psychedelia and rock swagger usually pull it off in the live arena. And two days with a home crowd should perk up Bobby no end. See preview. Carling Academy, Glasgow, Fri 7 6—Saf 77 Jan.
Spiritualized More ageing spaced-out rockers in the form of Jason Pierce and his stripped down cohorts. The Spiritulized live experience can either be mind blowing or fairly tedious. let’s hope it's the former eh? Barrow/and, Glasgow, Mon 79 Jan.
