Hi Everyone!
Gang of Four put on a fantastic show last Friday night
as did Roxy Music on Tuesday night.

Sydney based designer Danielle Atkinson studied Textile Design
before launching her fantastic label based on repeat prints.
I really love this!
The colour combinations are so appealing and the shapes easy to wear.
I love them styled with the socks and clogs but they would also be great
with wedges or some ankle boots for the cooler months.
MFAT is made entirely in Australia and all of the silks are hand washable
which is what we need for our climate.

The gorgeous Joanna Newsom is doing a show tonight at The Tivoli.
If you're feeling a little more rock'n'roll, there is a tribute night for
The Cramps at The Step Inn.
I was lucky enough to see The Cramps play twice in Brisbane
at The Roxy before Lux Interior passed away just over 2 years ago.
Local bands playing the hits on the night include Sulphur LIghts,
The Keep On Dancing's and The Chokes.
I recommend a sequin bunnysuit with some fishnets and heels or
something leopard skin.
Don't be shy!
Tomorrow night, Saturday the 5th I'm going to see Newcastle bands
Alps and Bare Grillz at Woodland.
On Monday night, Glaswegian indie pop heroes Belle and Sebastian
are back in Brisbane after 5 years, touring their latest album called
"Write About Love".
They are playing at The Tivoli.
Next Thursday night the 10th is a huge night!
Australian photographer and musician and founder of Doingbird Magazine, Max Doyle
will be launching his latest solo photographic exhibition at the
great NEW Nine LIves Gallery.
If you're not up to date, the guys have moved the gallery to Winn Street,
just a couple of doors up from The Outpost and flanked by
Flamingo Cafe and Tym Guitars.
Max Doyle is well known for his fashion photography and in recent years has
been doing a lot of shoots for Australian Vogue, including many covers.
This exhibition is as the title says, about Drums and are shots taken by
Max while on tour with his band Songs.
The exhibition opening will feature some special guest drum spots by local
drummers Nick Norto Naughton (Gentle Ben), Susie Patten (I Heart HIroshima)
and Alex Gillies (No Anchor).
After the exhibition, head upstairs to The Zoo for the long awaited return
of New Zealand LEGENDS The Clean!
They are playing with two FABULOUS Brisbane bands, Blank Realm,
The Deadnotes and The Legend.
As you see there are a WHOLE LOT of cool things to do in Brisbane -
almost too many in fact but I'm not complaining.
Just lap it up.
Brisbane's IMA (Institute of Modern Art) have just launched their facebook page.
Here is the link to LIKE it and you will be able to keep up with their amazing
programme even more easily -
Don't forget our 3 day jumble sale is on from today, in between BV and The OP
