I've been listening to "Little Animals" by the Beasts of Bourbon all week, and would love to go and see them at the Prince of Wales on Friday. Unfortunately, I have to go and look for somewhere to live on Saturday, and I can't see that an after-Beasts gig hangover will impress any real estate agents.
On Saturday there is a big line up at the Tote- a benefit for Heather Macdonald:
The Melbourne music scene has suffered a setback with the theft of Heather MacDonald's camera gear. These camera's have been used to capture some of the most memorable concerts of the last decade. Her images have graced the covers of many local releases, such as The Powder Monkeys, Hoss, Digger & The Pussycats, The Sailors, Mach Pelican and The Mystaken as well as a Dead Moon LP and the walls of the Tote Hotel's front bar. To get her over this hurdle a bunch of Heather's buddies are getting together do a bit of what they do best. So help pick up her spirits and kick up your heels.
Playing: The Onyas, Hoss, Dynamo, Tiger By The Tail, The Kickyourheadins, Wrong Turn, Chuck Jenkins. Starts at 7.oopm, for only $10.00
Sadly, this looks like it may well be the last Tiger By The Tail gig ever. Get there early.
I mentioned recently that the Saints reformation made me want to go to Brisbane- well, the idea of seeing the Darling Downs and the Painkillers sharing a bill makes me want to go to Perth:
James Baker, Ron Peno & Kim Salmon, all on one bill, all doing new material. A rare opportunity, I hope it packs out for them.
