For those that didn’t venture down to Splendor last week there were actually quite a few alternatives around the city, one of which was the inaugural “Old Skool Rod and Ride show”. It was obvious in places that it was their first show with only a handful of vendors and some hastily thrown together signage but there were plenty of motorcycles and a few cars on show but a personal highlight was our buds Smoking Martha rocking it out of a semi trailer and getting the old biddies up and line dancing! They did a great job considering half of them had the flu! At least they’ll have a bit of immunity when the Ekka kicks off 😉

After having to shoot the Nine Sons of Dan guys for the Time Off Live cover, the preliminary research pricked our ears up and they were quickly placed on the “gotta see them live” list. Fast forward a bit and they’re headlining a gig at the Zoo! Unfortunately we missed the support of Burning Brooklyn, Awaken I Am and We Were Giants all worthy to see in their own right but the main event was worth the wait. Great selection of song styles and tempos and a vocal not too unlike Brandon Boyd of Incubus which definitely isn’t a bad thing in our books 😉

See below for the highlight photos of the event and grab this week’s Time Off magazine for a full review of the night.

Teneriffe, the suburb, not Newstead you know? :p
Well they had a little shindig on the weekend which coincided with commercial dance favourites Nova FM’s 5th birthday.
Market stalls and a bunch of live bands and DJ’s including Blue Juice, Amy Meredith, Lowrider and Stan Walker.
