THE CLEAN / DEADNOTES / BLANK REALM AT THE ZOO 10-03-11

It's been something like 22 years since The Clean last played in Australia. (Yet the plane trip over from New Zealand only takes 4 hours, what the hell?!). Anyway I was damn excited, and damn exciting it was.




Epic as always, here's a bangin' new tune from Blank Realm.


DEADNOTES WITH EVERETT TRUE





The Deadnotes were really tight and as Everett True stated during their set, "I'm just glad to here". Definitely one of the best times I've seen them.


THE CLEAN





The Clean. Enough said.

ALPS / BARE GRILLZ AT WOODLAND 5-03-11

Newcastle's Alps and Bare Grillz have spent a couple of weeks on tour in support of the new Alps album 'Alps of New South Wails'. Brisbane was their last show. Good dudes, fun times.
