Collingwood Open
Hang out with Gareth Liddiard under the stars at the Gaso.
Overview
With an already excellent summer season underway, The Gasometer is rearing to cement itself as one of the go-to music destinations of the inner-suburbs. Now, with a nod to its 'hood of choice, it's launching its first major set of shows since its big revamp in May last year. Kicking off on January 25 and running all through till late-Feb the Gaso will be bringing the noise with the Collingwood Open. With big-name shows on an open-air stage for around $20 a pop, where else would you rather be?
After dropping their latest album Grids late last year and doing a huge string of shows including Meredith Music Festival and playing support for Adalita, Teeth & Tongue will round out a solid summer effort on January 25. Melbourne locals The Harpoons and Twin Beasts will follow that up on January 31 and February 6 respectively. Lanie Lane will be serenading you with tracks from her latest album Night Shade on February 19, then loveable folksters Sweet Jean will be hitting the stage on February 22.
The unmistakable highlight though is bound to be Gareth Liddiard. The Drones frontman will be bringing his distinctive brand of Aussie twang and soulful storytelling to the Gaso on February 27 and 28. Much like his stint at Workers Club last year, a second show was added due to popular demand. Unlike Workers, this show will be your only chance to hang with this charming songwriter under the stars. Get in quick. Tickets won't last long.
