Gig Review: The Basics @ The Northcote Social Club, 30th October

November 1, 2010 by Lachy 0 Comments

Thanks to Keith Parsons for the photos. Last Saturday night Melbourne’s hardest working band, The Basics, played a wonderfully energetic, humorous, and fun show at the Northcote Social Club, very ably supported by Georgia Fair, who themselves seem destined for very big things.

Gig Review: Powderfinger @ The Sidney Myer Music Bowl, 29th October

October 30, 2010 by Lachy 17 Comments

Powderfinger played their last Melbourne show to a sold out, enormous, and lovestruck crowd at the Sidney Music Bowl last night. It was a fitting farewell to the Australian music stalwarts, who played a remarkably well balanced set full of old classics.

Album Review: Hungry Kids Of Hungary ‘Escapades’

October 11, 2010 by Lachy 0 Comments

This debut album from Brisbane lads Hungry Kids Of Hungary has been a long time coming, but it manages to perfectly encapsulate everything that is great about their preceding EPs and their energetic live shows while still adding something new. In other words, it achieves everything that a debut album should.
