I saw these guys do an Acoustic set the other week and they had the whole room giggling away to their set.<br \/>\n<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/#!\/TheGoldenTroubadours\">THE GOLDEN TROUBADOURS<\/a><\/strong> are also playing this fresh from their EP launch. Expect a variation of beautiful melodies to fly around the room with the odd slide guitar here and there, complimented nicely by soulful vocals.<br \/>\n<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/#!\/sofakingmusic\">SOFA KING<\/a><\/strong> are a three-piece \u201cScientist Rock\u201d outfit with upbeat catchy lyrics and cheerful Jazz melodies.

Setting standards high by listing their influences as cult bands NOFX and Rise Against, and promising \u201csweet music, again and again\u201d. Oh, go on then.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nIndie rockers <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/#!\/pages\/Ruckus\/195558903209\">RUCKUS<\/a><\/strong> will be proving their worth with modern, catchy tracks which have earned them a following on the Nottingham pub circuit over the past three years.

We liked them so much we played them twice as part of our Rewind. Their music is as warm and endearing as the feeling you get when you listen to them.<br \/>\n<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Injured-Birds\/159354717437818#!\/Oldboynottingham\">OLDBOY<\/a><\/strong> are gonna shake up Spanky&#8217;s next with their energy-fuelled set.

Toe-tapping rhythms mixed with strong vocals, that&#8217;s nice right?<br \/>\n<br \/>\nDoors: 8pm<br \/>\nTickets: \u00a33<br \/>\n<br \/>\nOur final shout out is for <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/#!\/goldskiesahead\">GOLD SKIES AHEAD<\/a><\/strong> playing at <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/intakeclub\">The Intake Club<\/a><\/strong>, Mansfield on Friday 7th October.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nThese four energetic guys on the Hardcore\/Metal scene have gained a big following after forming just this year.
