HA NOI — Ha Noi rock fans will have the opportunity to catch one of the United Kingdom's best underground rock bands as they stop in the capital for one night only tonight.
Southampton sensation Goober Gun will take to the stage at the Factory Bar, Bao Khanh Street at 9pm, and promise a night of stadium sized rock, unforgettable melodies and great harmonies with a full on, engaging and energetic live performance.
With influences such as Def Leppard, Cheap Trick, The Wildhearts and Jimmy Eat World, Goober Gun craft slabs of modern rock, combined with a lyrical and musical depth that has won over audiences around the UK and beyond.
Goober Gun vocalist and drummer Tim Hardwick promises a great night out: "We love playing our songs live, and I know the audience can see what a fun we're having. Night after night our aim is for them to enjoy it as much as we are."
It's this simple desire to entertain that has brought Goober Gun a superb fan base and critical acclaim, including a win at the BT Digital Music Search for Talent in 2008.
In the summer of 2009 Goober Gun recorded their new album 1979 which caught the attention of promoters the world over, and kick-started Goober Gun's tours of Taiwan and Thailand.
Goober Gun is a three-man band with Tim Hardwick on drum and vocals, Jon Reynolds on guitar and vocals and Ian Hardwick playing bass and vocals. Tickets cost VND100,000 which includes one free Coors beer.
In HCM City, the band will perform at the SuperSize Sai Gon at Vasco 74/7D Hai Ba Trung Street in District 1 at 9pm on December 9. Entrance will cost VND100,000, and at LoretoFest International Music Festival at RMIT, 702 Nguyen Van Linh Parkway in District 7 at 2pm on December 11 where tickets will cost VND500,000 to 650,000. — VNS
