A very large and heart felt thank you to everyone who has taken the time to join in on our eclectic journey this year! To all the bands, venue staff, sound engineers and punters - we really do salute you. Without all your support, none of this would be possible. We really look forward to seeing you in the new year for the release of our EP's which are all but finished! Thank you again and have a great new year!

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaasive thanks to Nic Jones and the Pot Belly Bar for putting on a killer celebration! On Saturday night with Kurt on the knobs, it was a fat, warm and loud sound that rang through the 2617 doing the whole of Canberra proud. With so many things happening in this city, it's hard to keep up sometimes, so a warm thanks to all those whom came out to celebrate! JohnBoy Wickback, Triply, Box Jelly, Space Party, The Get Downs, Fat Controller and Black Mountain - Black Metal all smashed out killer sets to a super enthusiastic crowd. It looks like the Pot Belly is back as a music venue and I am really looking forward to seeing some new, and old favourites grace her cosy stage. I think the next announcement from us will be pretty exciting, but you will have to wait just a little longer I'm afraid.

What a corker of an evening! Thank you so much to Stevie and Louise for having us on Friday night at The Basement. Cognisant, The Stone Cold Crazies, And Then Silence and Johnny Roadkill all smashed it. Was an absolute pleasure to play with you all. Also a huge thanks to Joel for the killer sound and Jesse for the blistering light show. You're a bloody talented bunch! No more shows for a while, but that doesn't mean you won't be hearing from us...

Thank you all who came along to Polish White Eagle Club on Saturday. We had an awesome time checking out Gen A - Musician, Second Sun and Northbourne Flats who all played blisteringly entertaining sets! Was a blast to see you all play and hope we can do it again soon. It's a fantastic venue, so get along there any chance you get to check out the food, beers and entertainment on offer. We are at The Phoenix next on Sep 3rd for a Monday Bootlegs with Palace Revolution, The Pretty Bones and Rumblr. Should be another great night of local tallent. Catch you there!

A hearty pat on the back to all who came out on Saturday to see some seriously killer sets by Clarity of Chaos, Psionic Tide and Mattersphere. You all smashed it! But I think we can all agree that Panik stole the show with their technical, energetic show and absolutely belting tunes! Was an absolute pleasure to see you guys play. Hopefully we will see you again soon! Next up we hit the Polish White Eagle Club with the awesome Second Sun, Northbourne Flats and Gen A on the 25th of August. They have some great food so get in early and try the pierogi. They are deee cent.

A hearty thanks to all that came out on Friday to witness the awesomeness of Screaming Eagle and Lillye tearing up the stage! Thanks so much for having us and hope the rest of the tour is a cracker! Cheers to Jessie and Stu behind their respective consoles for making it sound and look pretty friggin' sweet! Love your work fellas. Next up we get to play with 24 other bands on the same bill. you heard right, 24 other bands! That's around 144 guitar strings. 50 sets of sticks. And if we shake the couch out, 3 guitar picks when we hit up Festival Allsorts #3 - 25 bands! So for all you lovely people, we have a deal. We can get you in for a dollar a band. Yup. That's how much we like you. Be warned though, it will cost you an extra tenner at the door so buying a ticket is not only fun, but frugal too! Sling us a message and we will sort you out. 😉 \m/>.<\m/

Big huzzah to all who wandered down to the Pot Belly Bar on Friday. All the bands had a great night and hope you did too! Thanks for having us on the bill Nic! Was a pleasure! Special props to Kurt who just happens to travel with a full guitar rig in tow! Only problem is that Sam has learnt absolutely nothing about the importance of bringing your own gear to a show. In fact, it has just reaffirmed his belief that he can just wander around and everything will just work out for him. I guess if it works for him and he's prepared to take the risk. Drift on you crazy dude! Next killer show that we are lucky to be a part of is happening at The Basement on the 25th of May with Sydney's own hard rockers Lillye! Should be an absolute cracker. Teaming up with their good friends and partners in crime for the recent Gilby Clarke tour, Screaming Eagle, it promises to be a night of non-stop-rock*! *night will actually end at some stage as universal laws of physics and time still apply for some dumb reason

Click here to support Save The Phoenix organized by Phoenix Canberra
The Phoenix has been supporting Canberra music for 25 years. Now it's our turn to show how much we value that support. As we lose venues it grows harder and harder to keep a thriving music scene alive. So whether you are in a band, love watching live music, hate evil landlords, or just enjoy a cold beer, give as much as you can.
