Sounds Loud Festival 2010

If you like local music you will like this festival.

If your weekly disposable income is spent on rent, goon, Ikea furniture and cheap Thai food, leaving you no money for play – you will like this festival.

If you sound like Maculay Culkin and are still waiting for your southern regions to develop properly, you will like this festival.

If your athletic ability has been reduced to jumping fences at gigs and if you take pride in ripping off door stamps with thick texta, then you will also like this festival.

Fresh off the demand for some decent FREE all ages gigs -comes the brand new SOUNDS LOUD FESTIVAL 2010.

A decent stash of Triple J favourites are headlining the bill; Bluejuice, Philadelphia Grand Jury and Calling All Cars. Joining them will be Hungry Kids of Hungary, Behind Crimson Eyes, Yacht Club DJS, Scientists of Modern Music, Seth Sentry, and more.

Check out www.myspace.com/soundsloudfestival for all the details.

Danimals playing Spectrum

Well I’ve been smitten by Danimal’s production recently, so I was pretty happy that they won the competition run by Tooheys (yep another one), but the prize of this is that they got flown to the US to work with Mark Ronson for a week, with artists like Santi(o)gold, Kaiser Chiefs and others dropping in to make a new jingle for Tooheys. The whole thing is being documented and I’m guessing will be sold to some tv network soon for all of us to see. In the meantime, they are putting on a show next week in Spectrum. I’ll be going to this show so let me know if you’d like to come along they are giving away a double pass, send rsvp@whothehell.net an email with ‘DANIMALS AT SPECTRUM’ (yes you may email in caps) on the subject line.
