Good Morning Folks,
Apparently, the mail didn't fire off last night, so we're resending it
today... sometimes we 'LOVE' technology ;)
It's the weekend, and as such, we have stuff to do and have fun with.
RIVERBEATS '08 finishes this weekend. If you're out Parramatta way at
all, please stop by and check out the installations and this final
weekend before it disappears until the same time next year. It's well
worth it.
This week HELLFIRE celebrates for all attendees with a serious treat
when they host two international Festish/Glamour guests. The
incomparable MIDORI and the wickedly gorgeous KUMI will both be
appearing at HELLFIRE and performing live. Theuir reputations precede
them, and their shows have to be seen to be believed. If you're in the
area I cannot recommend this highly enough. Of course if your tastes
are more of a dark musical bent, then you will want to check out THE
BIRTHDAY MASSACRE on their Australian Tour (along with my faves, MZ
ANN THROPIK) at THE MANNING BAR.
So, without further ado... 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; RIVERBEATS 08 wets it's whistle on THE PARRAMATTA RIVER; FIRST-
RUN movies premiere at GREATER UNION; ROCKFEAST launches STRYCHNINE at
THE LEWISHAM HOTEL; THE ROCKS MARKET BY MOONLIGHT entertains late
night market-shoppers at THE ROCKS; THE BIRTHDAY MASSACRE rocks it out
at THE MANNING BAR; HELLFIRE whips through THE GAFF; BLINK eyes off
THE AGINCOURT HOTEL; KATE MILLER-HEIDKE rips into THE METRO THEATRE;
ABDUCTION X metalstorms THE LEWISHAM HOTEL; TRASH SATURDAYS fizzes
through THE AGINCOURT HOTEL; WWE SURVIVOR SERIES choke-slams THE
FORTRESS; and next Monday's CULT SINEMA goes all future-sexploitation
with ROLLERBLADE (1986) at THE ANNANDALE HOTEL.
<ADVANCE NOTICE DEPARTMENT>
Watch for more HELLFIRE; BLACK PLANET; ROCKFEAST; SHALLOW NATION;
ASCENSION; CULT SINEMA; WWE SURVIVOR SERIES; GARY NUMAN; KYLIE;
POPCORN TAXI; BIG DAY OUT; HOMEBAKE; THE RUBY REVUE; SOUNDWAVE 2009;
THE STRAY CATS FAREWELL TOUR; THE BURLESQUE BALL; and truckloads more.
Please note that some events are VERY much in advance and can be
affected by closures, raids (as was demonstrated on Saturday night at
The Agincourt), 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 ROPEWORK MASSACRE, BATMAN!! IT'S NOVEMBER!!... ALREADY!!!!!......
