Drive By Argument

The Garage, Glasgow
5th March

After a lengthy and considerably soggy jaunt to the Garage I arrived just in time to meet a mass of Drive By Arguement fans gathering steadily on the lower floor. Not only was this another packed out gig for the Ayrshire based band, but a celebration and launch night for the latest single, The Sega Method.
The third date in their current UK tour was jumping with rowdy Glaswegians partial to toppling a pint or two over each other, but amidst the madness and one punch up which occured, Drive By Argument were a runaway success.
Lead singer Stewart 'Stoke' Brock was the perfect gentleman, dedicating several songs to their loyal followers whilst delivering a set of fast-paced synth based tunes built to give Panic! a run for their money.

Drive By Argument's new single The Sega Method is available for download from iTunes and the limited edition vinyl is in available in Virgin and HMV
