Yo Gabba Gabba!

Overview

Don't you hate when there's an imminent party in your city, that you may not have been informed about? Yo Gabba Gabba are bringing their There's A Party In My City! tour to Brisbane for two matinee shows tomorrow!

The troupe, led by human DJ Lance Rock and flanked by his 5 furry monster pals, are all over kids' television at the moment. The show you see on TV is a mixture of live-action and cartoon sequences, with some hilarious, borderline insane, collaborations with celebrities and musicians, including Jack Black, The Shins, Elijah Wood, Hot Hot Heat and MGMT, just to name a few. Even our x&y bar in the Valley has a little nod to the zany show, with a stuffed Brobee doll sitting proudly on the main bar. But what is it about this children's show that draws viewers of all ages? Yo Gabba Gabba's creators, Scott Shultz and Christian Jacobs (of Aquabats fame) have made this quirky schmozzle into an indie favourite because they felt a mutual disappointment in today's kids' programs, and knew they wanted a show that was both educational and entertaining. They draw inspiration from current indie acts, their own kids and the old-school shows we all grew up watching.

On this tour, DJ Lance Rock and his crew are supported by Little Red and Art Vs. Science. And here you were thinking it was just for the little people you know. You can take them along, AND enjoy yourself too, unlike those boring On Ice shows! I dare you to try not to smile when you hear 'There's a Party in My Tummy'. You will be seriously impressed and immediately in love, I can almost guarantee it.
