  • Fancy an exciting and rewarding part time job?

    I am looking for a partner rather than an employee.

    After watching shows like The Last Millionaire and The Apprentice and realising how much fun the basis of the shows would be to do, I’ve decided that I’m going to do something similar and would like a partner to do it with.

    The concept is simple; we would sit down together and come up with ideas, then choose the best one. We would each put in a very small set amount of our own money and see how much we can make over a set short period of time. The work will always be different depending on our ideas. I have no intention to break-even or be at a loss. If you fit the description below you will always be in profit.

    Also I would like to say this is not an internet scam and not an over night get rich scheme! The harder you work the more money you make simple as that.

    I am looking for some one with good communication skills, competent using a PC and the internet, possibly with a web or graphic design background. You must have a background in Public relations, customer service, retail, or sales and marketing and have a very good knowledge of Dundee, its businesses and night life. A keen interest in music and general art is also essential. Experience in putting on or running events would be helpful.

    Remember this is not a typical 9 to 5 and it is possible to have other jobs while having this one as I have two my self.

    The hours you work depend on how much you want to work, so the bigger the contracts the more money and hours you get. You will also be required to give some time and money to local charities.


    To apply please email eventsindundee@hotmail.co.uk with a CV, photo and a paragraph or two on why you think you’d be good at this.


    No time wasters please.

  • Free Photo Shoots


    Me and a great photographer have teamed up and we are offering a great deal.

    I am in the amateur stages of photography just now and want to get better so the only way to do that is take as many photographs as possible. But the other photographer has had almost 2 years of experience. I have a FujiFilm Finepix S5700 and the other photographer has a Nikon D80. So we’re not exactly turning up with wee crappy run of the mill silver cameras.

    What you get as part of the photo shoot is to spend a few hours with us on different locations we will take around 100/200 photographs each. Then we will upload them to our websites and let you choose the ones you want to keep. You can take anything from 1 to 400 pics of your band. We will also spread the pics about on our Myspace, Bebo, DeviantART and Flickr sites. All in all with the hits we get on them sites you’re talking about 1000 people seeing your band pics within the first week. They will have your name and links with them too, so it’s not too bad for your band promotion either.

    If you’re interested we are free over the next few weeks, we can only shoot in Dundee though.


    Let us know ASAP if you want a shoot for your band, remember it’s all free and it comes with free band promotion :)


    Oh and if your not in a band but opened this and think your friends band might be interested get in touch ASAP!

  • TOP 25 BANDS IN SCOTLAND

    Ok I thought id do a blog since I haven't done one in ages. This one is about the top 25 bands in Scotland. Its brought on by the Doghouse weekender that will feature 25 bands over a few days the bands have been picked by a panel of 5 judges from all over Scotland consisting of

    Craig McGee

    Grant Dickson

    Jim Gellatly

    Paul Grieve

    Vic Galloway


    I thought id get your opinion on who you think the top 25 bands are. It gives you a chance to see if your choices have been picked by the judges too.

    Here's the full line up excluding two bands


    Sixpeopleaway
    Luva Anna
    The Brogues
    The Essentials
    Big Big Sound
    The Leatherettes
    The Grace Emilys
    Descartes
    Twin Atlantic
    Hi 5 Alive
    The Invisibles
    The Draymin
    Beatnic Prestige
    Root System
    The Penny Blacks
    The Apple Scruffs
    The Getdowns
    Dave?
    Kobai
    Our Name Legion
    The Carellos
    Page 6
    Broken Records



    Now remember you can pick any genre of band only thing is it would nice if you picked some of the best of the unsigned bands in Scotland instead of going straight for ones like The View and The Fratellis. Also if you can put a link to the bands of your choice that would be great, so other people can check them out easier.

    I've done my top 25 but when I wrote the names of the acts down it came closer to the 50 mark so I'm sure you wont have trouble getting 25.
