Overview
After years of wielding brass instruments, eccentric outfits and outrageous headpieces, one of Brisbane's most cherished bands are hanging up their sailor's caps and anchoring for good.
The Good Ship was started by songwriters John Meyer and Daz Gray as a side project from their various bands. Since then they've played over 150 shows, produced three albums and 10 singles, had up to 14 band members at various times, and seen countless guests as part of their act. In 2010 their lineup settled, and they explored foreign seas by producing stage show The Seven Seas, and by then had managed to transform from a small, cafe-playing band to one of Brisbane's greatest musical broods.
Now, after years of perfecting and showing off their unique PoCoFoCa music (porno country folk cabaret) The Good Ship are playing their final show in Brisbane. The Zoo will host La Petite Mort (French for 'the little death', i.e. orgasm). The Bon Scotts will be supporting The Good Ship as they bid adieu in their token eccentric fashion. Expect wild times, a couple of tears and waves of awe at what may be the last live performance of PoCoFoCa and the local band that invented it.
