Overview

The Annandale Hotel, the beloved Parramatta Road music venue, is bringing primary school back by pitching the boys against the girls in a showcase of some of Australia's most exciting male and female talent. With an epic lineup of six bands, and evoking lunchtime kisschasey games, Boys vs Girls is a night sure to provide you with your musical money's worth and a minimal amount of playground hair-pulling and name-calling.

Headlining are one of Sydney's finest up and coming bands Ghostwood, who you should in all seriousness check out, because if things in the world are fair they deserve to get very big. The female half of the headline is represented by Laura Imbruglia's witty, folk-inspired tunes, and bringing up the rear are the jangly guitars of Young Revelry, the grungy pop of  The Betty Airs, as well as Creepers and Bonney Read.

The first fifty pre-sale tickets will receive a limited edition cassette single of Ghostwood's incredibly catchy single 'Sunset Mirage.' A friend of mine has been trying to get his hands on one of these for a couple of months now, so I'm guessing there has to be something pretty awesome about them, aside from the novelty of owning pieces of dead technology gradually being revived by hipsters and nerds.
