Track and Field #2

Overview

Sometimes it can be hard finding a gig with all the crazy-good Australian bands and DJs you love in the same place, especially for a reasonable price. Luckily there are organisers out there who felt that the idea wasn’t unachievable and went about creating Track & Field.

The second Track & Field event of the year will be taking place at The Arena this Friday, and comes complete with performances by the Bleeding Knees Club, Deep Sea Arcade, Velociraptor and Gung Ho, as well as a bunch of DJs to ensure that you throw shapes down til the morning hours. Those with sharp memories will notice that location has changed from last time, which was a deliberate choice by the organisers to keep punters on their feet.

Created as an antidote to consumers having to choose between either festivals or gigs with only one band, Track & Field fills the middle void nicely. If you think about it, it’s kind of like a house party – if you were friends with lots of amazing musicians. So don’t be that kid who shows up to school/uni/work/etc on Monday and was the only one who didn’t attend the party of the year.
