BLACK CHERRY - Saturday
24th July
The Kitten and Limpin' Jimmy were lucky enough to
catch The Rumjacks and The Snowdroppers together on the bill at the
Oxford Art Factory a few weeks ago and this only served to
heighten our anticipation for the Next Black Cherry. Word around town is
it will be a big show so don't leave your tickets to buy at the door.
Remember the last show was almost a capacity sell-out. Nothing is more
disappointing than being left on the street outside a show.

Rave On Lori Lee
Howdy
Limpin' Jimmy & the Swingin' Kitten and welcome to the latest Robot
Roundup.
The
GreazeFest office has been running on all eights as we hurtle
towards the heppest kustom kulture event on this side of the
equator. It's just 23 days away at the time of writing and it's
approaching fast.
We are assembling a killer-diller GreazeFest weekend, with something
for everyone, with candy-coloured dream machines, rockin' bands, DJs
and burlesque performers, real live pinstripers, tattooists and
kustom artists, vintage and retro fashions, lowrider cycles, tasty
food and beverages and a gathering of the coolest people that you'd
ever want to hang with.
Following is the latest updates on Greazefest, plus some exciting
announcements, including this one about a new series of rockabilly
gigs in Brisbane:
* New *
Blue Suede Sundays
 The
Tempo Hotel is starting up a new series of free rockabilly
gigs on Sundays!
Blue Suede Sundays will run at
least once a month, on a Sunday afternoon, at Tempo Hotel in the
Valley.
The afternoons will run from
2pm to 7pm and will feature a new rockin' band or two every month.
Tempo Hotel is a new venue in
Fortitude Valley, previously known as 'Dooleys' or 'The Hacienda
Hotel' (if you remember the 80s). The hotel is located on the corner
of Brunswick & McLachlan Streets. It's easy to find and there is
street parking in McLachlan Street on Sunday arvos.
The upstairs bar at Tempo is a
big room with heaps of space and a new dance floor. There are cheap
drink prices and a tasty meal menu.
The first Blue Suede Sunday
kicks off on July 18 with very special guests Big Kitty &
The Scaredy Cats.
This will be an exciting
afternoon of live music and dancing. This will also be a neat way to
warm up for the big GreazeFest weekend at the end of the month.
Where: Tempo
Hotel, 388 Brunswick St, Fortitude Valley (corner McLachlan St)
Who: Big Kitty & The Scaredy Cats
When: Sunday July 18, 2pm to 7pm
Cost: Free
Park: On the street in McLachlan Street or in
Chinatown car park in Ann Street.
Age: Over 18s only.
Info:
www.robot.com.au
The following Blue Suede
Sunday will be Sunday August 8 (the first Sunday
after GreazeFest) and it's also destined to be big!! I'll be
announcing the August 8 line up shortly.
Other Neat Stuff
Mick Hadley & The
Atomic Boogie Band are also playing a series of free Sunday
Sessions at Tempo. You can catch Mick Hadley this month on Sunday
July 11 and Sunday July 25.
Other gigs happening around the traps include The Sugar
Shakers cd launch this Friday night (Jul 9) at the Holland
Park Bowls Club and alt. country band Halfway's cd
launch at the Troubadour on the same night.
Mimsy from Trailer Trash Tattoo and partner Pony
from the Ten Fours are running a weekly DJ dance session on
Wednesdays at Brothers St Brendan's Football Club in Rocklea, just
down the road from the Showground. I'll be spinning some tunes at
the next one (Jul 14), and hopefully picking up some new moves on
the dance floor. Drop me a line if you want more info.
 Lovers
of real gone rockabilly should check out the new release
'Girls Gone Rockin', which is a triple cd set of killer
tunes from the early years of rockabilly bands with female singers.
Collecting gal comps can sometimes be hit and miss, as collections
can be riddled with novelty throw-aways once you get past the
headliners. But, I'm pleased to report this cd set doesn't fall into
that lazy category. This is a cool 75 song selection of mainly
rockabilly, with a bit of hillbilly and rhythm'n'blues, from the
likes of Wanda, Janis, Brenda Lee, Jean Chapel, Barbara Pittman,
Ruth Brown, Etta James, Ella Mae Morse, The Miller Sisters and the
list goes on. This is a great companion set to the Routes of
Rockabilly release, both on the Fantastic Voyage label, and they
should sit in the 'frequently played' section of your collection. It
has never been this easy to get your hands on the good gear.
Find them at your local record store.
A friend of mine with a restored FX Holden is
looking for a single lock up garage that is available for rent.
Location is within Brisbane. If you have available space drop a line
to Simone on simone_bennett@hotmail.com
Does anyone know of a 1968 Buick Riveria for sale
around the Toowoomba region? It's a green 2-door with a white vinyl
roof. If you have seen this car, please drop me back an email
lori@robot.com.au.
That's enough raving for now. Read on for the GreazeFest news and
see you all reeaaal soon,

* New * GreazeFest Cruise & Rockabilly Arvo
 Heads
up for the latest addition to the GreazeFest weekend. On Saturday
afternoon, we are cruising to the Royal Mail Hotel
(Brisbane Tce, Goodna) to catch the rockabilly sounds of hot new
trio, The Vampers.
Cars wishing to cruise will
meet at Rocklea Showground at 12.30pm. Cars and/or punters not
wishing to cruise simply turn up to the Royal Mail Hotel at 1.00pm.
The Vampers will be performing until 3.30pm. There's a timber floor
at the venue, with plenty of room to dance. There are basic counter
meals and it's free entry.
I wrote about The Vampers in the last Roundup and I'm happy to
report they've just come equal-first in the one of the Brisbane
heats in the Emergenza, an international battle of unsigned bands
from all over the world. They hold comps in all major cities and The
Vampers recent 'win' in Brisbane means they progress to the next
round and have to do battle again.
What: The
Vampers at the Royal Mail Hotel
Where / When:
Cruisers - meet at Rocklea Showground, Goburra Street
entry, 12.30pm
Non-cruisers - meet at Royal Mail Hotel, Brisbane Tce, Goodna 1.00pm
Cost: Free
Ages: Over 18s only
 *
New * T-shirt designs released
Direct your peepers to the
sensational GreazeFest t-shirt designs.
The main design is a
commissioned piece by Wildman Ishii from Moon Eyes in Japan. He has
created a mind-boggling scrolled hot rod and double bass pinstripe
that will make your jaw drop. There is also a striking red, white
and black anchor design and a crossed pistons design, both by Lori
Lee. All shirts feature the bands on the back.
Greazers who have pre-ordered a GreazeFest t-shirt in their
preferred size will receive the Wildman Ishii design as their first
choice. Shirts can be swapped at the time of collection, depending
on available stock.
You still have time to
order your t-shirt in advance to secure your size and to receive the
$5 discount. Order here:
www.greazefest.com/tickets.html
When at GreazeFest be sure
to check out the neat sticker and stubby cooler designs too.
Tickets over half sold out
GreazeFest tickets are selling
quickly and the evening shows are over half sold out, as greazers
from all around the country and getting ready for the biggest
weekend of the year. As you know we have much more space for
everyone at the new venue, but tickets are still flying out the
door.
It's interesting to note where
the tickets are going – 50% have been posted to Queenslanders, 25%
to NSWers, 15% to Victorians, with the remaining txt going to as far
away as Western Australia, Tasmania and New Zealand. Of the hot rod
early entries, over a quarter of them are driving to GreazeFest from
outside of Queensland.
Be sure you order your
GreazeFest tickets in advance to receive the discount. Friday night
and Saturday night tickets will probably sell out, so make sure you
secure your tickets to these nights.
If you are attending for three
days, the best value option is to order the GreazeFest 3-Day Pass
for $79 (you save $16).
Just visit the Ticket page for
all this info and pick what works for you.
www.greazefest.com/tickets.html

school cat and don't want to order your GreazeFest tickets online,

Answers to
Common Questions
How do I get to Rocklea Showground?
You can approach the venue from north, south, east
or west, so check your street directory or Google maps to see what
works for you. Just find the Ipswich Road Service Road and you'll be
right from there.
Will it be cold... i.e.... should I wear my
leather jacket?
It will be the same as
previous years at South's.
We are closing in the stage
end of the Showground Bar with fencing and thick curtains, so it
will be just like a regular venue room. We'll have big gas heaters
in any cooler spots and in the smoking section.
Can we camp overnight
at Rocklea?
No, definitely not. This is
not the Toowoomba Swap!! Just book a motel room, designate a driver,
or catch a cab. The venue is only 11km from the centre of Brisbane
and is a lot closer than you may think.
Where do I park?
For the evening shows, drive
into the showground off Goburra Street and turn immediate right into
the car park, or if full, park along the fence line.
For Sunday, park in the
Rocklea State School oval off Goburra Street.
Where are the night time gigs?
Inside the Showground Bar, in the same space the
bands performed in at the Twilight Hot Rod Show.
How big is the dance floor?
There are two dance floors –
one for the indoor stage and one at the outdoor stage. They are both
about 8m x 8m.
Is there seating for
the rockabilly nights in the Showground Bar? Can I reserve a table?
Yes, there'll be regular
tables and chairs set up, just like the other rockabilly gigs that
we hold.
No. We are not holding tables
for patrons. Once you are at the venue, it is 'best in, best
dressed' for table spots.
How do I enter in the
Low Brow Art Show?
Bring your artwork, up to
three small / medium pieces or up to two large pieces in a ready to
hang condition to GreazeFest on Sunday at 9am. We'll have
GreazeForce members there to hang your artwork and we'll have
display cards for you to complete.

"The GreazeFest
is the 'must-do' Kustom Kulture event in the Southern Hemisphere.
Held in Brisbane,
Australia, the GreazeFest is a crankin' weekend of cool cars, rockabilly
tunes, vintage bikes, lowrider cycles, low brow art, pinstripers, tattoos
and vintage threads.
The event is now in
it's eleventh year and it has become an annual ritual for kustom kulture
devotees from all over the world.
After many years in the
groove, the GreazeFest is now on the move!
We are settling into
new digs, which means a bigger site for the hot rod show on Sunday and an
enormous live music zone for Friday night and Saturday night."

Rock'n'Roll to Swing and Cha Cha to Tango. We can even throw in the odd
Quickstep or Foxtrot for the Ballroom dancer in you. It's surprising how

Come and experience the magic of The
Hotel Chambers
when Limpin' Jimmy and the Swingin' Kitten
present
JUMP, JIVE AND WAIL
next
night scheduled for
9pm - FRIDAY
20th August
PLEASE
NOTE THAT ENTRY IS FREE ALL NIGHT.
The Hotel Chambers is a great
social night where old friends meet for a drink and catch up and new
people to the scene can get involved. The food is great as well. Read
the text below.
Jump, Jive and Wail at the Hotel
Chambers, cnr Martin Place and Elizabeth Street, Sydney.
updatedfree.jpg)
A
night of Neo-Swing, Jump Blues and Rockabilly featuring DJ's Limpin' Jimmy and The
Swingin' Kitten.
Come
and dance the night away at this very cool city venue where you can ease
into the wee small hours of Saturday morning. You provide the dancing
feet, the venue provides the style and we provide the music!
Behind
the deceptively everyday name Hotel Chambers lies a very funky
underground bar, equal parts New York cocktail lounge and Parisian jazz
cellar. The perfect setting for Jump Jive & Wail. Its chic designer
decor is a mix of retro and futurist, like all great rock'n'roll, jazz
and swing! Walk down the short flight of steps to the neon interior and
you're in another world.
The main room opens intriguingly before you, reminiscent of a classic
jazz club but updated in a contemporary mix of dark chocolates and rich
reds, with a futuristic neon and glass bar, and plenty of seating in a
mix of nooks and cosy corners or high benches and stools. The feeling is
one of sleek comfort in a chic designer setting.
Great cocktails and an extensive selection of boutique, imported and
domestic beers (on tap and bottled) are always available and very
affordable. Wine and cocktail lists are priced to enjoy, and beers range
from $5 - $8 with regular Beer of the Month specials as well.
Well priced bistro snacks range from $6 to $18 with a big choice around
$12 - $16.
The Chambers is at the corner of Martin Place and Elizabeth Street in
the city.

Not Forgotten Productions
"Hi
Folks next night is happening soon see
below. Similar format to the Eddie
Cochran 50 years show, i.e. great bands,
good people and legendary venue. Back to
basics, no sideshows, no chintz, just
pure rockin'. Hope you can all come
along and have a top night with
Melbournes ReChords and the best Sydney
has." Dave Duncan
Fifteen bucks. Yah surely gotta be kiddin'. Thirty
bucks would have been a fair entry charge for this line-up. Lucky you.
This is another special Rockabilly event for the
hardliners, brought to you by Not Forgotten Productions who
brought you the well supported and greatly enjoyed Eddie Cochran "Don't
Forget Me" celebration night at The Bridge Hotel a few months ago.
Not Forgotten Productions is a 'community' based group
of Sydney musos and punters. They put on shows and gigs that focus on
Jump blues, Rockabilly and Rock'n'Roll music. They believe in a top
night out, fair pay for the musos and a nod to the legends. There are
plans afoot for many more themed events like this if the event gets
public support. The bands and musos are throwing their weight behind the
events and we recommend that you do so as well.

Australian Nitro Funny Car Gold Cup
Saturday, 31 July 2010
Sunday, 1 August 2010
It is mere rumour no
more. Sydney Dragway is delighted to announce the overdue return of Drag
Racing’s most unpredictable creations – The Australian Nitro Funny Car
Gold Cup at the venue on Sunday, July 31st July/31st August.
“Drag Racing is about
variety and the return of Nitro Funny Car to Sydney Dragway is a welcome
and important step. We aim to be committed to showcasing these amazing
cars moving forward,” remarked Sydney Dragway MD Tony Beuk.
The Australian Nitro
Funny Car Gold Cup is no tentative step forward, with the same prize
money offering as what an ANDRA Pro Series Top Fuel round would be paid
at a Sydney Dragway event.
Also a pleasing
initiative for this event is a multi-round shootout style format, with a
qualifying round, then an eliminations round, followed by finals
according to performances in the eliminations round earlier.
“With the development
of Nitro Funny Car events in a one day package racing wise at this
stage, we see the need to bring these cars out as much as possible for
both the racers and the fans,” Beuk explained.
In a pleasing change-up
as well, the various Sportsman categories will also race using a
three-round format style.
Stay tuned as we let
you know who will rage Nitro Funny Car Thunder in a
Firecracker at Sydney Dragway!
For the
very best of what's on in the car world, check with Pinky at the
following sites ;-

Intermediate
Rockabilly Dance Workshop -
Sunday 26th September
at
3pm
The
workshop will be a 2 hour session which is
designed to improve your dancing as well as
learning new dance moves. And of course have
fun.
Remember, if you are more comfortable
dancing with your own partner, you are
welcome to come as a couple and stay
together or come by yourself and join the
rotating circle, where you will get a chance
to practice with a number of different
partners. Are there any ladies out there who
are interested in improving their leading
and learning some new moves? Here is your
chance.
This workshop is for dancers who have at
least satisfactorily completed our Beginners
Workshop or experienced dancers who would
like to improve their style or learn more
moves and we would not be able to
accommodate inexperienced dancers.
Details are as follows:-
