We're excited to announce a special night of music at the Cranker featuring The Venice Whalers (Jess Porter/Flik Freeman/Cameron Sanderson/Nick Russell), 10k Free Men & their Families (8 bit punk from Sydney) and Simon Kelly & the Lonely Wives (rootsty rock from Perth).
The whole thing is free entry and will kick off around 9pm with 10k Free Men (currently in the top 20 of Triple J Unearthed), so come early and see one of the most hilariously entertaining acts in Australia. Did I mention 8 bit punk? With Game Boys?
The Venice Whalers will continue to debut new tracks mixed amongst some left-of-centre cover songs.
Come and enjoy the cheap drinks and even cheaper music!

First gig in SA (get to lil'-scale and the crew!) in a long time. Should be a good show, playing with a bunch of rock bands.

Come czech it out on facebook.

My $0.02 on this gig:

"There is a juncture between musical performance as punk / hardcore set, as chipmusic show, as a stand up comedy routine and as a piece of performance art. It is this space that Tom Gilmore aka Ten Thousand Free Men and Their Families occupied with his transcendental set last night at Adelaide's Crown And Anchor. 10k absolutely nailed it. For me personally, this was the second best live performance of chipmusic that I have ever seen, closely behind Condom (Covox and Random) at Blip Fest 2009. I am basing this assessment on both what I took away from the show as well as how it made me feel. "
