The Flying Colours tour kicked off here in Canberra at the ANU Refractory last night with of course Bliss n Eso headlining but supported by a number of other Australian hip-hop groups including Pez, 360, DJ Matik and Diafrix.

Cog, Canberra 27 May
The Hellenic Club in Canberra is a bit of an odd venue for a rock gig, but as Flynn explained the band just wanted to try something different from performing at the local universities. Fair enough. I didn’t particular like the venue choice but the performance itself was of course awesome.

Get on this…yeahhhh on it.
Matt and Kim. Playing in Melbourne 1st of May. Playing elsewhere also but I don’t care. I will be there and if you have a head, some sort of brain, an inkling of logical thinking, pistons for legs and some sort of hearing device that allows your brain to comprehend music you will be too. Seriously though, pistons for legs would be awesome.

Ash Grunwald, Gomez & the Black Keys hit the Big Top
On Friday night, I headed to Luna Park to catch a highly-anticipated (by me) gig at the Big Top.
First up was Ash Grunwald, who I’ve been listening to lately but have never known much about. I was surprised by the fact that Grunwald is a one-man show. He does the guitars and vocals and operates a snare, kick drum and toms using his feet. Great plan, in theory, but if you break a string and get flustered (and admit that to your audience), you’ve got no one to hold things while you get your shit together. While Ash rocks at what he does, his feet were half a second behind the rest of him. Get a drummer, son.
