That young, stupidly rich swedish dude that some times plays music made his way around the country starting at the Brisbane Riverstage last week. Hat was reversed, a hand was held up and waved, “OOSSHH” faces were made and beat drops were plentiful for the adoration of the sold out crowd of tweens and brusses. In the words of support act New World Sound, “BRIZZAAYYY!! Gah-in’ off!!”.
Faleepo Francisco are in this week for our photoshoot for the The Music Magazine’s (Brisbane) – “The Guide” section cover.
We also caught soul songstress Jill Scott doing her thing at the Tivoli. The chairs at what was supposed to be a subdued seated affair became as redundant as at a southern gospel church sermon! See below for more photos from the gig.
Check it out in this week’s issue of The Music (Brisbane) #016.

This week we caught one of classic rock’s all time greatest (and I’m quite surprised at how well he’s still kicking on!) who brought a George Clinton sized band ensemble complete with horn section, piano and Tom Morello kicked off their Australian tour in Brisbane at the entertainment center.
Extensive review and mini gallery over at The Music.
Bloc Party backed up their Future Music Festival show with a special side show at the Riverstage… minus the rain… well for the most of it anyway!
Check out the full gallery over at new our new feathered friends’ scene and gig guide The Good Guide.
It had been a little while since one of our favourite bands of all time, Reel Big Fish ventured out our way but even with the departure of their second guitarist (replaced with a new saxophonist) the energy was still there (even if Aaron already had a bit of a work out playing lead guitarist for Goldfinger) and a great show none the less.
Goldfinger were there.. well, minus everyone except the lead singer who apparently gave the band a screw you guys mere weeks before the tour! Kudos to be had for continuing on with the RBF brass section and lead singer and a familiar MXPX member on bass. Clearly this didnt stop them for rocking out even if the dude looks more like Leslie Nelson nowadays!

Cherry Popping Daddies brought their hats and chains and swinging hands for a zoot suit riot at Tempo. We even got to have a good chat to Steve (lead singer) and Bill (lead guitarist) before their show about touring and bad American weather 😉
To top it off, the surprise find of the night went to His Merry Men on support with a veritable batch of ska, funk and groove.
