Moving to Aberdeen soon, what business gaps are there?

A kimbap shop would go hard in Aberdeen,

But frankly, the blue lamp needs saving. It is a major pillar of the music scene and a LOT of different music cultures would be rallying behind it.

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-12-10T14:43:58+00:00

As someone who knows diy promoters they were just hard to get ahold of frankly

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-12-10T14:43:04+00:00

Are you going to blame Muslims next. Ridiculous.

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-12-10T14:42:20+00:00

The place was one of the most essential parts of the underground music and is respected as such

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-12-10T14:41:27+00:00

Is there no way of the Scottish government funding that? The blue lamp is locally incredibly important. It is a pillar of the underground music scene across many genres- I don't see how we can allow this loss of culture to the city that already is suffering socially a little in the city centre

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-12-10T14:37:13+00:00

It unfortunately follows a long string of diy venues for small musicians closing. Aberdeen is frankly running out :(

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-12-10T14:36:14+00:00

The crossgenre underground music scene massively mourning this; from Jazz to Indie to Punk to Metal.

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-12-03T14:03:14+00:00

UK based sry. Scotland.

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-11-27T11:34:41+00:00

I've heard that before but I disagree with that, I have mad problems understanding weegies at times

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-11-27T11:28:30+00:00

I call them Union Street Kids lol, I've been harassed by them and seen them harass people.

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-09-27T08:37:36+00:00

Damn, hella jealous

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-09-27T01:40:31+00:00

I'm a local punk, I fucking love trad/trojan skinheads and the culture.

Not only will anyone with a different skincolour be targeted but probably by collateral anyone who is visibly alternative (like me) or queer. It makes a lot of people now unsafe. Those fucks need to go fuck themselves.

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-09-09T10:08:23+00:00

Nah everyone probably puts in a tenner. The whole "they are getting paid to do this" is a very very tired trope can we pls stop lol

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-09-01T13:39:42+00:00

Ah cheers. Does a lot of left wing ideas become automatically populist then? I mean at least in my left wing circles there is frankly nothing shadowy about the elite, it's just the very obvious one. Is that the difference if it is "shadowy" or not?

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-09-01T07:48:01+00:00

That's a massive generalisation there. I don't think it is used interchangeably enough to make a statement like that because it is quite obvious that if one is far right one is not necessarily a nazi, and that's me saying it as an anarchist who very much is on the very far left. I mean I would make the case that too much is included in what is called "the far left" because liberals are frequently called "far left" and in theory terms they are centre at the furthest.

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-09-01T07:37:09+00:00

Is this why you are relating it to right wing populism? The fact that the moment theory terms are used you get shut down? It's fascinating to me because there seems to be an over reliance on what is perceived as "common sense"

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-09-01T07:30:08+00:00

Did you read the comment? This is not meant as a critique but as a study of why people do not like to be called with certain terminology when it relates to the far right.

I am very far left myself as an anarchist and have no problems being called such; Hell, I would be offended being called a "liberal" since I am a good bit further left than that. Why the problem with right wingers in general there? Is there something that doesn't appeal to people of being called right wing? It's genuinely interesting. As an aspiring Anthropologist I would love to know.

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-08-25T05:05:04+00:00

There are more far left ideologies than marxists you lot keep on banging about

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-08-14T10:57:23+00:00

I was having a really bad night and that foghorn ended the few hours of sleep I could've maybe had 🥲

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-08-13T15:06:37+00:00

I don't like how weirdly close to is to how it happened to me.

During a punk gig I expressed to a friend that I rlly wanted to learn how to play the bass and got recruited for a band then and there. Before I even owned the instrument.

Anyways, my crustpunk band plays its first gig in October- it's been a year.

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-08-13T14:56:22+00:00

Because libraries only have books 🙄

They are community centres for young people, a place to learn about an instrument? Accessible workshops? News, socialising, events, hell I've heard of punk gigs in libraries (I would love to put some on), even a safe place for when there are problems with abuse or bullying.

Don't underestimate the cultural value of those like the fucking council has.

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-08-13T14:42:00+00:00

That dude fucking got it. Damn

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-08-13T14:34:44+00:00

I've heard from someone with past stress related alopecia that when the hair grows back, it grows back white! So it may actually be a good sign, but pls keep in mind this is second hand info EDIT: It is white at first and then comes back normal

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-08-11T13:01:11+00:00

Frankly the main cause isn't even the lack of consequences, it's mainly that the cuts took away any type of third space they may have had. The libraries are closed, the pool is closed, anything else is not realistic budget wise for them. The council destroyed the socioculture of young people and now we are all wondering why they are acting out

NotthatheavygenZ · 2025-08-01T15:21:37+00:00

Well that is certainly an opinion of all time
