5th July
Clare Bowditch The Zoo
[from Clare] These will be Clare's last shows for some time in Australia before she relocates to Berlin to pursue exciting European opportunities including intensive touring and an imminent album release.
There might be a review if I ever get around to it!
12th June
Pinky Beecroft & The White Russians The Zoo
Ex-Machine Gun Felatio keyboardist/vocalist Pinky Beecroft's latest project sees him teamed up with Cameron Bruce (GUD, The Polaroids) and Nick Steward (George, Elixir). I don't know anything about the band, but with a lineup like that, I reckon it'd be worth a look in.

7th June
Tylea and the Imaginary Music Score The Troubadour
Great to see Tylea's name up there again. Head-lining this night is Paddy Dempsey.
Review
4th June
The Thrills The Zoo
I missed these guys last time they were in the country - this might be an opportunity to make up for it.

3rd May
The Panics The Tivoli
We're definitely planning on going to this one. Cruel Guards is a very enjoyable listen, and I'm looking forward to seeing these guys live for the first time.

26th April
Regurgitator The Tivoli
I last saw Regurgitator at the Pig City gig last year, and they went off! This should be a great night!
Review
24th April
Eels The Tivoli
Tickets should be available soon!! I haven't missed these guys since they started playing at The Tivoli (that I'm aware of), and have had a great night every time. E is such an entertainer, and every time they tour they seem to put a new spin on their classics.
UPDATE: Unfortunately I've just been reminded that we've already got tickets for something else that night, so it looks like I'm going to miss out :-( . Hmm, I wonder how much flights are to the Sydney/Melbourne gigs...

20th April
Grand Salvo Troubadour
I first saw this Melbourne folk musician supporting someone (Darren Hanlon I think?) at The Troub. I enjoyed the set and his album he had on sale that night greatly. I haven't seen him since, but I'm planning to catch him at this gig, where he's launching his new album!
Unfortunately I missed this one in the end.
18th April
The Mess Hall Coolangatta Hotel
Got my ticket.
Yes, I went to this, but damned if I remember much of it!
13th April
Del Toro The Powerhouse
Part of the afternoon sessions, so some time after 3pm.

15th March
Angie Hart Troubadour
I bought ex-Frente singer Angie Hart's solo album earlier this year and was impressed to say the least. Looking forward to going along to this gig.
