No Way! Fuck Off Melbourne!

  10:00pm Venereals - German cattle

Then on Friday night it’s the juggernaut astro-pop of Velociraptor with support from Tiny Migrants, Go Violets and Hierophants.  Tickets are on sale here – Doors at 8pm.


Saturday and Sunday see Victoria take over Brisbane as the southern locals prepare to tear a rift in time.  They play Saturday, 24 at Woodland and Sunday, 25 at the Waiting Room.  Cobwebbs support on both legs, with Cannon and Keep On Dancin’s playing a night each.

Gone for Sale

Those of you who attended the Black Lips show in Brisbane last week will be fully aware that Cannon got wild and tore the Zoo a new bass hole.  What you may not know is that before the Black Lips played, Cole sat side of stage throwing up into a bin for 5 minutes before the band went on stage.  Throwing up in a bin and watching Cannon really do go hand and hand – just watch:

GIRLS

NEVER AGAIN

DREAMS

Their debut album – out through Long Gone – has been getting some shouts and yells about it over the last couple of weeks (with more to follow) and you can read words (WE HAVE WORDS NOW) about it below:


TIME OFF (4/5)
RAVE (3.5/5)

You can download the album digitally here or purchase a CD copy at any of their shows, Repressed Records in Sydney, Off the Hip in Melbourne or the Outpost in Brisbane.  Their debut EP – also through Long Gone - is SOLD OUT, but will be available to download digitally soon!!

Also, you can pick up some Long Gone freebies online (physical copies are ALL GONE) with:

Lovely Legs – Never Learn EP
Foreign Junk – Foreign Junk EP

If you can’t make it to any of these super simple places, then you can pick up a copy of Cannon’s CD at any Long Gone show – the next is Friday, March 9th at the Primitive Room featuring wild ramblings from the Majors, Occults, Teen Sensations and the band that bash out cracker-racket, Woodboot.
Take a load off.
