******** WOODLAND NEWS********
Hi everyone, hope everyone is dry and safe.
Both of this weekend gigs are proceeding ahead as planned.
Woodland employs quite a few casual staff that rely on the venue for their wages, so with this in mind
we see this a good thing to keep life normal for them. (Not to forget the bands as well!)
Doors open 9pm- 3am both Friday and Saturday.
Come along check out the bands, DJs and have a good time.
The winner of our "Health: double pass giveaway is Alannah M.
The winner of our "Deadsits" double pass giveaway is Tristan C.
Both have been emailed, have fun.

Deadshits #2
This January sees the return of Brisbane’s DEADSHITS! festival,
a showcase of the most attractive and aesthetically pleasing losers in Australian music.
Think James Cameron’s science fiction masterpiece The Terminator. Deadshits Two is kinda like its sequel,
Terminator 2: Judgement Day, but with even more post-apocalyptic bliss.
With a lineup consisting of Brendan from Eddy Current Suprresion Ring, Steph from Dick Diver

and a rhythm section of members from Teen Archer and The Twerps,you know right away Melbourne’s BOOMGATES will be great.
Their music is rich with goodtime summer vibes, listening to it makes you want to get out of the house more and
generally be less of a shitty person. Debut 7” out now on R.I.P SOCIETY RECORDS. (http://www.myspace.com/boo mgates )

The only thing discerning these guys from your neighbours is that on weekends
they happen to be the best freaking weirdo-electronic-dance¬ba nd in the world.
If you happen to like your dance music served with weird shit like butter prawns
and oregano then this is for you. (http://www.myspace.com/holybalm )
