Bits Of Shit - Bar Open video

Doncaster Shopping Town

Al (Straightjacket Nation, UV Race and Dick Diver) with Jensen (Deaf Wish) have joined forces to make Doncaster Shopping Town. Gotta love the Donnie reppin'. Not sure what this sounds like but i've heard the words 'Acoustic' and 'Country' thrown around. Definitely worth a look-in.

Also on bill is School Of Radiant Living and Woollen Kits who both played good sets yesterday opening for Perth's Golden Staph. Actually, while i was watching Woollen Kits i kept hearing Cheater Slicks which i thought was really cool. They're actually going to Sydney soon too for anyone on the northern tip. I'll throw the flyer up for it as the shows are closer. Loving Tom Hardisty's distro 'Indian Girl', the best place for my money in 2010.

Sunday free shows in Fitzroy

Who went to UV Race last night? Get a tape? Any good? My pal Christina scored me one while i was working late.... Really wanted to see UV Raggers but i will be seeing them in 2 months in NY and in Memphis. Excited! Anyway, tonight everyones goin' down to Northcote Social Club for possibly the biggest gig of the year for Melbtown. Tomorrow Golden Staph are playing with Woollen Kits and The School Of Radiant Living at Yah-Yah's in the arvo-fer F R E E.

BITS OF SHIT - Thursday - Bar Open

FIREWITCH!

Fuck yeah, Firewitch is playing some shows this year!

FIREWITCH
MYSTERY BAND
(FROM THE LAND OF THE RISING SUN) (BIRUSHANAH)
OCCULT BLOOD
BREATHING SHRINE

On Wednesday the 10th of February, Bar Open hosts a night of crushing, psychedelic, noise-rock featuring the highly anticipated return of Firewitch. After many a moon in hibernation, they will be performing a special set, switching between classic Firewitch motifs and material from their latest incarnation as Inappropriate Tough Guy Behaviour. Support comes from the free-form phych duo Breathing Shrine, neanderthalic noise-core sect Occult Blood, plus a special appearance by mystery act from the land of the rising sun. Don't miss this rare program of monolithic sonic disorder.

Doors 8pm / Free Entry

PUB FOOTY

So the Old Bar Unicorns were beaten by the Bar Open Bats. Tote Hotel beat the East Brunswick Eye-Gougers in a close battle. There's talk of a few more teams for next year, perhaps i'll play too!
