Announced today that Tumby Bay will host this year's event on April 2.
Birds of Tokyo, Jezabeels and Art v Science playing.
Sounds like a pretty good gig.

Sounds awesome. Was thinking it might be worth trying to get over there for.

2 mates of mine have got this off the ground and judging by Facebook they are over the moon at this news. All they wanted was enough money to get a receiver to listen to the Js, instead of relying on decent weather conditions for the Adelaide signal.


Only sad thing for me is that I will be in Melbourne that weekend :oops: :(

Is this judging by their 1 'hit' song (Plans)? :roll:
Quality band and VERY good live.

Definitely thinking about making the trip.

Nope. Judging by the fact they used to play rock n roll.
Now they play rock n roll by numbers.
Obviously they saw a gap with the impending retirement of Powderfinger.
And...I've seen them live several times.

Agree that maybe half of their last album was pretty run of the mill stuff - but there are still 3 or 4 corkers amongst them.

Really keen to see the Jezabels live.

Perfect analysis.

Just got back to Adelaide tonight where my local footy oval will never see an event bigger than that.

8000 people ranging from the pill poppers from the city to my now retired year 6 school teacher in the fringes of the mosh pit :shock:

Art vs Science were awesome and a perfect lead in to the Birds of Tokyo who are a very good band live.


Stoked I got to share a beverage or two with the AvS boys who were really top lads and enjoyed their time over there.

Didn't end up making it over, but caught a little bit on JJJ.
How were the Jezabels?

Didn't really know much of their stuff but were still worthy of having a slot on the bill IMO. The lead singer has some good vocals

AvS and Birds were the stand outs for me

I definitely disagree.
