After putting out the gigs post a couple of days ago I heard about a few more things (from the following sources: What’s On in Adelaide, dB Magazine, The talented Mr Ridley)
Before getting into the gigs I’ll mention that Mike Cooper‘s live score for Onibaba at Urtext last night was fantastic, unfortunately not too many people were there to enjoy it though. Daniel Varicchio‘s solo guitar set was great as always as well.
Now for the gigs:
This Sunday Taught By Animals play at the Jade Monkey. UPDATE: Sorry about the late notice but I’m not entirely sure that this gig is actually on – according to the band’s website they are playing at the Grace, but according to the Grace’s website (and RIU) there is something else on there. The Jade don’t have anything listed for tonight and dB have no listing for the band or the venue.
On next Friday (the 13th) Satan’s Cheerleaders play at FAD. Fans should listen out for some new material in the set.
Next Saturday (14th) sees the return of Really Good in Theory – an event in two parts. First there’s the local produce market from 12-5pm where you can buy direct from local record labels & DIY publishers. Then from 8:30 there’s a gig featuring local bands including Home for the Def and Aviator Lane for just $7. It all takes place at Urtext.
UPDATE: here is some more info from A Perfect Gentleman:
