Not On Your Rider 2021

Overview

They're entertaining to watch, and fun to play along with from the comfort of your own couch. But music quiz TV shows like Spicks and Specks and Never Mind the Buzzcocks always leave even their biggest fans wanting more. Who hasn't wished that they could show off their own music trivia knowledge in the same kind of setting? (And not just down at the local pub with your mates.)

That's where Not On Your Rider comes in. A music trivia game show, it's hosted by The Creases' Aimon Clark, and features Velociraptor's Jeremy Neale and The Grates' Patience Hodgson as team captains — and it happens live at The Triffid. Also, while the two on-stage teams are always filled with musos, comedians, drag queens and other guests, anyone can buy a ticket, sit at a table and play along with them.

Previous events have boasted folks from Powderfinger, Ball Park Music, The Jungle Giants, Dune Rats, DZ Deathrays, The Kite String Tangle, Butterfingers, Last Dinosaurs and more. As for the quiz itself, it's accompanied by chats about the music industry, plus other mini games involving attendees.

Back for 20201, Not On Your Rider takes place monthly — and you never know which music figures might be involved on the night. Head along next on Thursday, March 18 from 7pm (with doors opening at 6.30pm). You'll want to gather the gang, too, as tickets are being sold by the table.
