[Giveaway] JD Set Presents Art Vs Science Covering Icehouse

What would happen if Art vs Science, Kate Miller-Heidke, Patience Hodgson, Tim Derricourt and Icehouse walked into a bar?

Well chances are, the folks at the JD Set were thinking exactly the same thing, as this year’s event sees Art Vs Science cover the music of iconic Australian band Icehouse.

Kate Miller-Heidke, Patience Hodgson (The Grates) and Tim Derricourt (Dappled Cities) will also be along for the ride.

2011 will be a very big year for Icehouse, with inclusions on both the Meredith and Hombake line-ups. While placing such focus on a band from the 1980s may seem odd, tracks such as We Can Get Together, I Can’t Help Myself, Great Southern Land and Hey Little Girl sound just as fresh as they did thirty years ago.

The JD set will take place in both Melbourne and Sydney. Click on the links to buy tickets and more information,

14 September- TRAK, Melbourne

15 September-Upstairs Beresford, Sydney

Make sure you leave your email address and location in the comment so we don’t send you to the wrong gig.

[Giveaway] Purple Sneakers Party

Tomorrow night I’ll be surround by fake tan and bad music at my school formal. If you’re not attending school events tomorrow night, we should come down to Miss Libertine in Melbourne for a Purple Sneakers party featuring Purple Sneakers DJs, PhJD, Toki Doki and Beat TV DJs. Perhaps the most exciting inclusion in the line up is Gaz who, judging by the poster, could very well be involved with Yacht Club.

What’s even better is that I have five double passes to giveaway. Because it’s tomorrow and I have schoolwork to attend to, the first five people to comment this post with their full name  will win a double pass* Awesome? I think yes.

*One comment each. Don’t go spamming or I’ll ignore you completely.  Also, I’m assuming that I haven’t left it too late. So don’t be too disapointed if I have.
