Way back in early 2009 three friends agreed on the logo and line up for a little one day soiree they called Blood, Sweat & Beers.
With a premise of giving younger bands a chance to get on bigger stages alongside their more popular peers in a nice inclusive space with no bigotry towards style or people, it worked 8 times then had a nap…
Now nine years later some of those friends are doing it one last time at The Factory Theatre, there won’t be another after this so it’s your last chance to have a good time with the BSB crew and this generally excellent line up of bands spread over three stages around the Factory Complex
Not only is it value for money, a dollar a ticket is going to Don’t Fret Club and Support Act to help our friends who need a helping hand.
I guess you’ll want to know who’s playing now right?
Well here’s the first lot, still got some acoustic types to come too just like the good ol’ days
The Bennies – party, bong on, 420, yiewww, got a new album too
