HWCH FESTIVAL

I noticed a bit of a fluffle on the message boards yesterday regarding the announcemnet of what bands would appear at the Hard Work Class Heroes Festival. This is an event that has clearly come to mean something to mean something to the music community in Ireland. Congrats to all the bands that made it from BalconyTV, particularly those who have appeared on BTV to date including...

Chrome Horse
Declan de Barra
Eric Eckhart
Evil Harrissons
Ham Sandwich
Jenny Lindfors
New Amusement
Ray Heffernan
Straglers
The Flaws
The Kybosh
The Sensors
White Noise

In a way I´m surprised there are not more. Clearly alot of great bands have missed out. They shouldn´t be disheartened though. Always remember íts all a scam´. Perhaps BalconyTV should set up a festival of its own.

What the full list demonstrates further is the incredible amount of bands that are out there. I thought I had a sense of how many there were, but looking at the list, there are names I don´t even recognise.

On with the show.
