Streets of Your Town: A Tribute to The Go-Betweens
Round and round, up and down.
Overview
There are plenty of ways that a band can honour legends of the local music scene. Painting their names on the wall is something that The Triffid has been doing since the Newstead hangout opened its doors. In showing their love for The Go-Betweens, however, they're also giving their eye-catching mural some sounds to match, courtesy of a tribute evening.
Anyone who has attended one of The Triff's previous gatherings (highlighting the talents of everyone from Bruce Springsteen, Fleetwood Mac, The Cure, and Pink Floyd to The Clash, Metallica and Iggy Pop) will know that they're in for a treat. Of course, the fact that they're shining a spotlight on homegrown talent makes the night all the more special.
You'll be going round and round, up and down with Halfway, Dan Kelly, Adele Pickvance and The Stress of Leisure in no time — and you won't just be nodding to the past, but looking to the future. The show will also feature the finalists for this year's Grant McLennan Fellowship, aka Leanne Tennant, Hannah Macklin, Jeremy Neale and Bec Laughton, with the award named after The Go-Betweens' lead singer. Now that's how you pay tribute to a band that also has a bridge bearing their moniker.
