Scream, yell, wet your pants and run around like chooks beheaded, pan!c will be playing at Finn McCools (the Norwood Hotel) on Saturday January 10. Hillie, Garner and Rhodesey (I think that's how to spell it) will be cranking out the beautiful noise from 9 pm. Later... it turns ugly and that's the part where you scream and yell and start having a good time. Wettting yourself and all that. Wear a nappy if you're a bit loose in the nether regions.
In other news, part of the Grouse and part of Acoustic Juice is all mashed up together and headed over to Western Australia with Aussie songwriting legend John Schumann to play a couple of gigs at a festival. I don't know where it is or what the festival is in aid of (look it up and let me know) but I know we're going... I've got my ticket. The ragtag assembly, fronted by Schumann and Kat ( woman) has Stuart Day on fiddle, Mandolin and vocals, Denis The Preacher Surmon on bass, Rohan Powell on acoustic guitar and vocals, Anthony Thyer on electric guitars and vocals, Polly on keys and vocals, and Peter Matzick on drums. If it all works out well the lineup may perform in Adelaide later this year. Hang on... I just found out one of the gigs is the Viet Vets festival at Boyup Brook. That's on Friday January 9 with Adam Brand and James Blundell, and the gig on Saturday 10 is at someplace called Rock Arena, so named because the arena has some rocks in it.(Like somebody's fuggin head that I know!) So... if it's any good - the festival gig - we'll tell you all about it and maybe hang a few pictures on the site for you to look at. Or not. |

Yes folks and folkesses, the silly season has receeded into the hazy past and it's back to normal, or what passes for normal. Speaking of normal, The Grouse - those serenely normal gentlemen of rock, will be doing their normal work at the Normal Hotel - did I say "Normal Hotel"?, I meant the Norwood Normal - er, Norwood Hotel, on Saturday January 3. Everything will be normal, there is nothing to be concerned about. We will just see you there, ok?
And what else is going on in the very normal 2009 January? well, here's a few tips: 
pan!c will be attacking the Norwood Hotel on Saturday January 10 pan!c also will be raising the already high roof of the Daniel O'Connell Hotel (Normal Adelaide... oh! Did it again - North Adelaide) on Saturday January 17; The Grouse will be rocking the Emu Hotel (Morphett Vale) on Sunday, January the very normal 18;
Double Wammy will be blowing up the Semaphore Workers Club on Sunday January 25, just like they normally do;
Blues Avenue might have a gig on Tuesday January 27 (not sure about this yet - but that's pretty normal)
And The Grousies are back at the Norwood Hotel on Friday January 30.
So there you are. Your social calendar for the month of January is sorted; if you do the right thing and follow this closely, we'll see all of you fairly regularly and get to know each other quite well. Everything will be fine. Normal. Then, we can take a forward look at February and so on and so on for the rest of the year. Before you know it, 2009 will be under you belt, safely behind us, and we can move on. |

What could be better, eh????? Well, off the top of my head I could come up with a couple of things that might surpass that but I'm not going to tell you! We want your minds and bodies down at the Wheatsheaf Hotel this New Year's Eve (not the next one) to rip up the old year and burn it to ashes, then take those ashes and stomp on them till they turn to dust then whip up such a storm on the dance floor that.... just a moment; what if someone complains about the dust? There's always someone one complaining about dust and stuff like that. Ok. Forget the ashes and dust. Kick out the old year and hug in the new with Double Wammy at the Wheatsheaf Hotel, Thebarton. Surgeon's General warning: Double Wammy at the Wheatsheaf Hotel Thebarton may contain traces of nuts.
Speaking of nuts... the band with biggest nuts in town will be rocking at the Norwood Hotel on Saturday January 3, NEXT YEAR!! 2009. That's 2010 minus ONE YEAR! And who is that band with the biggest, hugest, monstrous, hairyest nuts????? The Grouse, you idiot! Stuart Hazelnut Day, the Preacher Brazil Nut Denis Surmon and Rob Walnut Boundy is whom we are talking about. So... go nuts at the Norwood Hotel (Finn McCools) on Saturday January 3. Surgeon's General Warning: The Grouse at the Norwood Hotel may contain traces of other bands like Double Wammy and the Blue Cats. |
