to Events In Sydney
Good Morning, Folks
It's the weekend - and only a few more days until the rotund red-clad
home-invader comes into your house and leave you pressies or a lump of
coal. Yes folks, next week is the end the the Xmas season and the
weekend after is the end of the year - another one down... Just make
sure you wander out and see as much of the Sydney festival as you can.
Also FLICKERFEST tickets are now onsale - so get your season passes
asap.
Also, this week sees the real start of the Xmas Celebration madness,
with BLACK CHERRY, and HELLFIRE both celebrating the yuletide spirit
(HELLFIRE once again gracing us with an international presence of
performer par-excellence, Satomi). So whether your tastes are more to
retro-Gothabilly, or perhaps looking for mistletoe in all the 'wrong'
places, there's something there for most tastes this Friday night. Of
course for the more traditional people, there is CAROLS IN THE DOMAIN
on Saturday night, along with a Xmas serving of Doctors & Nurses at
LOVE & HATRED.
See? Just a very short intro this weekend. So, let's just get on with
the process of putting this list out :)
To visually follow Events In Sydney I direct you to our Google
Calendar (
http://www.google.com/calendar/render?cid=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Fcalendar%2Ffeeds%2Feventsinsydney%40gmail.com%2Fpublic%2Fbasic
) and the Calendar function in Yahoogroups, so those of you who get
this mailer, can log in ( http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Events_In_Sydney/cal
) and have a look at that as all events are listed there as well
(they're all the same events - just in differing formats). Also, this
list is now mirroring on Google Groups ( http://groups-beta.google.com/group/eventsinsydney
), so if you have a Google Account - keep an eye out for us there.
Just a reminder that Events In Sydney has a Facebook Group (http://
www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=5591270255) and a presence on MySpace
( http://www.myspace.com/eventsinsydney ) so you can find us there as
well. Events get added as they're notified, and we post the weekly and
weekend events lists there as well.
That seems to be everything I have to rabbit on about, for the moment,
so let's get on with the listing, shall we?....Daily updates (when
there's something, which I find interesting, on) can normally be found
at the Events In Sydney LiveJournal site ( http://www.livejournal.com/users/eventsinsydney
). Easy to read and easily linked.
For those bands you might be interested in, have a look at Faster
Louder ( http://www.fasterlouder.com.au/index.php?city=1 ) for that
Independent What's On
Listing (which we also supply details to).
<THIS WEEKEND>:
This week/end: THE ROCKS GHOST TOUR haunts CADMANS COTTAGE in THE
ROCKS; SYDNEY & PARRAMATTA GHOST & HISTORY TOURS hearse on through the
CITY; FIRST-RUN movies premiere at GREATER UNION; ROCKFEAST launches
at THE LEWISHAM HOTEL; SWITCH BLADE SISTER ANTI-SOCIAL CLUB makes
friends at CLUB 77; BLINK eyes off THE AGINCOURT HOTEL; HELLFIRE whips
through THE GAFF; ABDUCTION X metalstorms THE LEWISHAM HOTEL; TRASH
SATURDAYS fizzes through THE AGINCOURT HOTEL; LOVE & HATRED spins into
THE TAXI CLUB; SUZIE Q POLE STUDIO XMAS EXTRAVAGANZA spins into THE
SUZIE Q POLE STUDIO; and next Monday's CULT SINEMA goes all 'naughty
list' with CHRISTMAS EVIL (1980) at THE ANNANDALE HOTEL.
<ADVANCE NOTICE DEPARTMENT>
Watch for more HELLFIRE; THE BLACK BUTTERFLY BALL; BLACK PLANET;
ROCKFEAST; SHALLOW NATION; ASCENSION; CULT SINEMA; WWE ARMAGEDDON;
GARY NUMAN; KYLIE; POPCORN TAXI; BIG DAY OUT; THE RUBY REVUE; THE
JAPANESE FILM FESTIVAL; SOUNDWAVE 2009; THE STRAY CATS FAREWELL TOUR;
FLICKERFEST 2009; THE BURLESQUE BALL; and truckloads more.
Please note that some events are VERY much in advance and can be
affected by closures, raids, organiser rebookings, weather, etc...
Keep an eye on the site-links for up-to-the-minute details.
If you are only interested in the next month or so, look below. If you
want to pre-plan <gasp! shock! horror> then please feel free to do so.
I will ONLY list regular club nights for 2 months in advance (unless I
see an official email from them in advance - because things change so
much it's insane to try to do otherwise).
Prices are listed as Full/Concession.
HOLY COUNTDOWN, BATMAN!! IT'S MID-DECEMBER!!... ALREADY!!!!!......
