    Event Better Than Expected (One last time with feeling - BNE, AU)

    Another punk show Down Under, if anyone's around Brissy. My band is calling it a day after almost a decade, we're kickin' at as we should and partying at a rad little DIY space called Common House with some of our favourite locals. This band has been a massive part of my life and it's a bit...

    Photos Mountain Paradise

    A couple of weeks ago I headed up to Mt. Glorious with a mate and our furry bud. We've been up there exploring a hell of a lot of times and found some great spots, but this was the best. Our general plan is to find somewhere to park where the scrub isn't too thick and the drop isn't too steep...

    Event Pig City Folk Punk at Sabo - Feb 11 (BNE, AU)

    To anyone else out there in Brisbane, Australia... My rad little crew Pig City Folk Punk are getting out of the parks and into the pub - a few of us are taking over Sabotage in Fortitude Valley on Sunday Feb 11 from 3:30pm. Entry is free, beers aren't crazy pricey and the music'll be good...

    Event Crusty Park Jams! (BNE, AU)

    While I'm yet to find any others on here from or travelling thorough Brisbane, Australia I thought I'd share this regardless (just in case!). This Friday (14/04) is a public holiday, so me and my mate Chris (from rad folk punk act Hang) think that calls for acoustic crusty park jams! Come...

    Photos Exploring Mt Tibrogargan

    Just thought I'd share a few photos from my wanderings around Mt Tibrogargan (Glasshouse Mountains, Queensland, Australia) back around 2014 with my mate Peta and her pup Aura. It's a gorgeous place - a lot of disused 4x4 tracks, plenty of wildlife (birds, kangeroos, snakes etc) and some fairly...

    Touring around Queensland

    I’m looking for affordable accommodation at Burleigh Heads. I’ll be there this weekend, and I’m a bit desperate for some information on budget (but still good-quality) accommodation around the area. I just found this website www.burleightourism.com.au and it has pretty good info about the area...
