No Culture Festival

Now that the gigs o' the week have gone bye-bye, I thought that this event was deserving of its own post.

The 3rd No Culture Festival is being held this weekend. For the first time the festival is being spread over three nights and three venues. These nights and venues are as follows:

Friday 30th @ Lofly Hangar ($15)
This is the 'hardcore/punk' night. 4 bands, 15minute sets each. The name act on this night is Ampere from the US, with the rest of the bill being filled out by Majorca (from Melbourne) and our own To The North and Quiet Steps.

Saturday 31st @ Ahimsa House, West End ($15)
Starting at 1pm and finishing at 1am the following morning, this is the big one, with a total of 16 bands on the lineup (in the following order, from last to first): Baseball (Melbourne), Turnpike, Luca Brasi (Melbourne), Arrows, True Radical Miracle (Melbourne / Adelaide), Charge Group (Sydney), Alps of NSW (Newcastle), Pikelet (Melbourne), Kes Band (Melbourne), Rialto Decibel Choir (playing potentially their final show), The Surrogate, Willows, Maiden Names, Fourth Is To Burn Warehouses, Otters, Swandive. For times go here.

Sunday 1st @ The Troubadour ($8)
The folky comedown show at the end. Pikelet (Melbourne), Charge Group (Sydney), Let's Not But Say We Did, Chalk & Cheese.

Weekly News - February 27th

Okay, maybe not so weekly news. I've been without internet for the last three weeks or so, but I'm connected again so no excuses. Thankfully not much has occurred in that time, but here's the important bits.

  • Screamfeeder are gigging again, with original drummer Dean returning to the fold. The band have scored the support slot for Buffalo Tom next month.
  • The Scul Hazzards have now departed Brisbane for France. While he band will release their debut album later in 2008 via local imprint Valve, you can have a sneak peek at one of the new songs, 'Greater Good', on their myspace.
  • The venue and date for the third installment of the No Culture event have been announced. This time round it will take place over two days (30-31st May) with the first day occurring at Lofly Hangar and the second at Ahimsa House.
