Holy Smokes Batman!! It's Tequila!!

Free Booze seems to be the highlight at the moment...also Kangaroo Burgers.  A combination of the two will pin you down, fuck you, and tell you how they did it the next day.

Of course, then there's cheese sticks...

April will see the return of the Strange Attractors to Brisbane and to the Stage.  I sat down and spoke with myself about the band:

Long Gone: What do you think of Strange Attractors?
Me: WHAT IS THIS!?
LG: ...
Me: Very Good!

They play the Front Bar Extravaganza on April 29 w/ Main Street Brats, the Digger Nicks & Tiny Migrants.

As David Cross one said "Pussy Doodles!"

Bored!? WELL!!


Wednesday 30th @ Ric's Bar - the Quest for Glory "Mythikal Kreatures: the Primitive?"

Yes! The same men who ruined your minds at the Upstairs Extravaganza have decided to ruin your minds in a different way at a different location.  Stories of corruption and treason have been replaced with tales of Griffins and small versions of real men.

Thursday 31st @ the Beetle Bar - Mother & Son w/ Keep On Dancins' & Cannon

Out of towners, Mother & Son release an LP alongside local stew brew's Keep On Dancins' and new kids on the block Cannon.  $5 entry will let you watch them tear shit apart.  That is cheaper then most shit tearing events.

Saturday 2nd @ Thee Magic Mile Club - #3 w/ the Vaginabillies, Gravel Samwidge & the Royal Family

Fan of the southside?  Why not head to the Marooka Magic Mile!! You can see yourself a punk fuelled shite grime slide...it's Free...and BYO.  Cheap beer, records, VHS and other shit for sale.  Be prepared for Noise.


See you around the parts.

Drinking and Still Achieving...

As Long Gone Records continues to establish itself, the spine and brain of operations prepare themselves with heavy weekend drinking and smoking.

Next month willl see the Front Bar Extravaganza bring two friends from out of town to get down and do the funky monkey.  A poster a event should come up for this soon.

April 29th - Step Inn Front Bar
8pm - $5

Main Street Brats
Strange Attractors
The Digger Nicks
Tiny Migrants

If you to want to perform heavy drinking and smoking (while enjoying music) then the below suggests a couple of good watering holes offering up booze and bands.


Wednesday 23rd @ X&Y Bar - Ada Richards, Harley Young & Jeremy Neale
Jeremy Neale hosts Scotch Night Downstairs at 'the Sean Connery' (X&Y) although everybody knows James Bond likes Vodka.  $5 Entry will get you these three solo musicians performing, while you enjoy a $5 basic scotch or $10 PREMO scotch.

Friday 25th @ The Beetle Bar - Somejerks, Tiny Migrants & Helical Sun
Will Huevos returns from Mexico to play a triumphant show in the city at the Beetle Bar (I am yet to attend said bar, although I have heard good things) with three piece garage grinders Somejerks!! Support from Tiny Migrants, Helical Sun & Brent McMullen for just $6.



Although appearances seem slim, this week only makes the mind dream of more shows, more drinks and more times!!

Birthing #1

So the second ever post...much like the first, but now we have no excuse for writing like twats.

There's a lot of shit going on this week that's worth going out to see, plus Long Gone could see our first release this week.


Wednesday 16th @ Ric's Bar - Foreign Junk w/ Main Street Brats

Literally music that has not been heard by human ears, Foreign Junk play their first show along side the ultra power punk tom-foolery of Main Street Brats.  Free Entry and you can grab a steak next door for $5!

Friday 18th @ the Step Inn Front Bar - Long Gone Records Extravaganza

We're hosting another night of fantastically cheap music.  This Friday features the many talents of the Sulphur Lights, Running Guns, Psy Ants & Goldentones.  Entry is just $5 and the doors will be open from 8pm.

Saturday 19th @ Woodland Bar - The Chokes

One of the most bad arse bands in Brisbane at the moment - the Chokes.  They're tall, they're girls, they're small and they know how to grime.  Entry is $5 after 10pm but Free before hand.  Also our very own DJ J-Walk (Jacinta Walker) will be debuting at the decks.

If however, you're broke then you should swing over the Marooka for 'Thee Magic Mile Club #2 featuring Extrafoxx, Cannon & many more.  Check for details: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=137544459645182


Well that's it for now, but more exciting changes are coming, so stay tuned.

The Past, The Future, All the Presents!

So this is the first post from us...what shit do you talk about...we have a show coming up next Friday on the 18th at the Step Inn Front Bar with the Sulphur Lights, Running Guns, Psy Ants and Goldentones.  The poster's by ex-room mate and all round gentledude Sam McKenzie (you can check out his work here).

...now that's shit you can talk about...

The next Front Bar Extravaganza has been locked in for April 29th and will feature the very special return of the Strange Attractors (1 part Melbourne, 6 part Brisbane) plus some other very special guests so keep your ears peeled.

Oh and hey! These are the posters for the last two shows.
