Good Afternoon, Folks!
Can you believe that it is the end of the month, and hence the end of
the Sydney Festival, already?! The signature show of the Festival,
MORPHOSES is finishing up in 3 days, so you have that long to go and
see it. This is your last chance to wander about and see all the
exhibits and shows that the Festival brought to the table, so grab
your Festival Guide and check out these final four days.
Where did the month go? Seriously, is it just me, or is time speeding
up?
BERSERK returns with a vengeance to THE BURDEKIN HOTEL on Oxford
Street, on Saturday night, and with the heat up turned up, the Uniform
theme will really go over well - and use your imagination for that
one. If you go to only one club this weekend, the return of BERSERK is
the choice I'd make. Chinese New Year also continues on this weekend
with THE TWILIGHT PARADE in Dixon Street, this Sunday evening.
We're into the Awards Season, now, and SYDNEY SCREENING is organising
attendances to Pre-Awards Oscar Nominated Film Screenings at the
moment with the first one being last night. Keep an eye out for the
schedule (they're announcing them on LiveJournal, and Facebook).
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/embed?src=eventsinsydney%40gmail.com&ctz=Australia/Sydney
) 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; HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL LIVE! wildcats THE CAPITOL THEATRE;

Monday's CULT SINEMA goes all dusk-ish with TWILIGHT PEOPLE (1972) at
THE ANNANDALE
HOTEL.
<ADVANCE NOTICE DEPARTMENT>
Watch for more HELLFIRE; ROCKFEAST; SHALLOW NATION; ASCENSION; CULT

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 END OF THE FESTIVAL, BATMAN!! IT'S THE END OF JANUARY!!...
ALREADY!!!!!
