SUMMARY:The Vaselines
LOCATION:Arts Club
DESCRIPTION:Happy 40th Anniversary to The Vaselines! "Wait a minute\, didn'
 t The Vaselines break up years ago?" Yes\, The Vaselines did break up in 1
 989 in the week that their debut album 'Dum Dum' was released. "So they're
  getting back together again?" No\, the Vaselines reformed in 2008 and wen
 t onto release two more albums\, 'Sex With an X' on Sub Pop in 2009 and 'V
  For Vaselines' on their own label Rosary Music in 2014. "Are they any goo
 d?" OK\, let me tell you everything! The Vaselines were formed in Glasgow 
 in 1987 by singers/guitarists Eugene Kelly and Frances McKee\, soon signin
 g to The Pastels frontman Stephen Pastel's 53rd & 3rd label. They released
  two 12 inch singles 'Son of a Gun' and 'Dying For it' and one album 'Dum 
 Dum'. Nirvana's Kurt Cobain regularly cited the Vaselines in interviews wi
 th the music press and Nirvana would go on to cover the Vaselines' ‘Moll
 y's Lips’ and ‘Son of a Gun’ (both later compiled on their Incestici
 de collection) as well as perform ‘Jesus Doesn't Want Me for a Sunbeam
 ’ on their legendary MTV Unplugged appearance which went on to introduce
  the band to a new world wide audience. Though they were not widely known 
 outside the United Kingdom during their short career\, their association w
 ith Nirvana brought them exposure\, with Kurt Cobain describing Kelly and 
 McKee as his "favourite songwriters in the whole world". At the 1991 Readi
 ng Festival Eugene joined Nirvana onstage for a performance on The Vaselin
 es song 'Molly's Lip's' and in 1992 Sub Pop Records\, released 'The Way of
  the Vaselines: A Complete History'\, a compilation that contained The Vas
 elines entire body of work at the time. Although The Vaselines broke up in
  1989 both Eugene and Frances continued to write\, record and tour. Eugene
  went on to form Captain America who changed their name to Eugenius when t
 hreatened with a lawsuit by Marvel Comics releasing two albums\, 'Oomalama
 ' on Fire Record and 'Mary Queen of Scots' on Atlantic Records. Frances re
 surfaced in The Painkillers then with new band Suckle released the album '
 Against Nurture' on Chemical Underground. She released a solo album 'Sunny
  Moon' in 2006. The Vaselines reunited proper in 2008 for a charity for Ma
 lawi Orphan Support and enjoyed the gig in Glasgow's Mono so much they dec
 ided to keep going. They recorded their second full album Sex With An X wh
 ich was released on the Seattle label Sub Pop in 2010.This was followed by
  V for Vaselines in 2014. The Vaselines begin their 40th anniversary year 
 2027 with a U.K. tour.\n\nBoletos: https://www.fatsoma.com/e/1iex9oxw/the-
