Go! Club present Dirty Mindz + Shot Dead in Vegas + Spread Legs not Lies + The Funhouse Robots
Dirty Mindz:
dirty mindz are a young four peice punk band from birmingham. they have been playing together around 1 year now and are a very energetic and tight live band giging solidly and as often as possible book gigs every 2 weeks in birmingham.
towards the end of 2007 dirty mindz began touring and have started expanding into new areas of the uk such as london and derby etc. after playing a few one of gigs managed to book a small london tour, the year also saw dirty mindz winning 2 local battle of the bands and playing gigs at renowned venues such as the birmingham barfly and bar academy.
in 2008 the band started the year by playing a show in london at the dublin castle. this was then followed up by 2 gigs at the 333 mother bar as well as giging to bigger crowds in birmingham and by this point had developed 40 minutes worth of original material. in 2008 the band booked there first ever 7 date uk tour.
dirty mindz are going strong as ever and are ready to see what 2009 will hold. adopting a very strong "if you dont like it fuck off" attitude which has led to the occasional fight . but dirty mindz are sticking to there own and will continune doing so.
