Jason Lytle from Grandaddy is comin’ to Perth

Well, this isn’t a Burgers post. But it is a Burgers related post. You see, some Burgers played an integral role in getting lead ‘Daddy to make it to Perth. Furthermore, awesome Burgers side projects ‘The Gizzards’ & ‘Chimp’ will be supporting. So you really should come to this gig. It’s going to be really awesome.

And in case you need some more encouragement…

Another Burgers gig! ! !

So Burgers will totally be playing another gig soon – a Christmas gig in fact! Not quite a Christmas album (maybe next year, hey?) but close enough. Here are the deets:

Friday, December 23, 2011 at the Velvet Lounge, Mt Lawley from 7:00pm until 12:00am

And the totally sweet line up is:

- Umpire
- The Autumn Isles
- Burgers of Beef
- the wine-dark sea
- The Sensitive Drunks
- Leon Ewing
- Ten Bit Tonsil
and special guest MC Byron Bard

So this is going to be a great night, and what better way to start celebrating Christmas a little early. Cos let’s face it, Christmas is usually a bit lame anyway.

Burgers to play at Ya Ya’s

Yes! That is correct. Another Burgers gig is approaching. It will be on Friday 18th November at Ya Ya’s in Northbridge. It’s going to be awesome, with the wonderful Mitey Ko and lovely The Love Birds playing also. This is one of the few gigs Burgers will be playing this year, so we really hope you can make it down and help make it a great night. It starts around 8pm and costs a mere $8 to get in.

All these details and more can also be viewed in convenient poster form here.

Gig! Gig! Gig!

Well I’m not sure how many people other than the other Burgers will see this, but, hey, it’s kind of just a test anyway.

Burgers will be playing a set at Mission Australia’s Mind Field – Mental Health Week Event.

In celebrating Mental Health Week 2011, Mission Australia is presenting a free all age’s event at Wellington Square East Perth on Friday the 14th of October.

Featuring live performances from local bands Hurricane Fighter Plane, Lucy Peach and Burgers of Beef, there will be service stalls handing out information about their programs, a free sausage sizzle lunch and cool drinks throughout the day.

From 11am to 3pm.
