Track and Field #1

Overview

There are way too many festivals around these days. What pair of shredded denim short shorts and flimsy excuse for a singlet (applicable to both lads and ladies) will I wear to Big Day Out/Creamfields/Summadayze/Stereosonic?

Same goes for club nights. What’s that, another Thursday student night? Another rendition of the classic Sunday Sesh? I dunno if you’ve noticed it yet, but I’m pretty tired of all these washed up and recycled versions of exactly the same damn thing. Wouldn’t it be nice if there was some kind of medium between the two tired concepts?

Ah, but there is! And it comes in the form of Track & Field – a new boutique (that means it’s fancy) music event that’s coming to The Old Museum for the first time this Saturday. Lying somewhere in the void between music festival and club night, Track & Field will be held several times a year. First off the marks are Last Dinosaurs, Ball Park Music, The Belligerents and The Jungle Giants, with DJ sets from Hungry Kids of Hungary, The John Steel Singers and The Honey Month.

Track & Field – it’s on this Saturday! Leave the festival gear and drink cards at home.
