Cam's Gigs of the Week - September 13th ... FIESTA!!!

Yes, it's that time of year again. The time when thousands of people flock to the Valley for a few days... causing a whole horde of other people to STAY THE HELL AWAY. Yes, it's the annual Valley Fiesta. Maybe you'll decide to brave the crowds, maybe you'll decide to look for entertainment elsewhere. Either way, the following may come in useful...

First, the non-Fiesta gigs:

Thursday 13th:
Stereo Total, Sekiden, Do The Robot @ The Zoo
Idle Cranes, Carry Nation, Steve Troy, Des De Mona @ Bar Soma

Friday 14th:
Dave McCormack, Intercooler, Fi Claus @ The Zoo - The launch of the soundtrack for the movie 'All My Friends Are Leaving Brisbane'.
SixFtHick, Loene Carmen @ The Troubadour - SixFtHick raise money for Europe.
Stature::Statue, Re-Enactment @ Ric's Bar
The Gin Club, The Rocketsmiths, Wind & Brackets, The Shrewms, Confessions, The Ten Fours @ Rosie's On Edward - A pretty big lineup, and it's in the City, far from the Valley.

Saturday 15th:
The Smallgoods, Laura K & The Aeroplanes, The John Steel Singers @ The Troubadour - A really great pop gig, I wish I could go.
