What’s my scene? The Sandbelt Hotel in Moorabbin will be my scene when we open up the show for the one and only Hoodoo Gurus!  This is your chance to see one of Australia’s greatest legends in rock history… as well as the Hoodoo Gurus.

The Hoodoo Gurus are certainly one of those classic Australian rock bands you’ve just got to check out.  Our roadie Darren, a.k.a. Pecka (if you’ve been to our shows, you’ll know who Pecka is) told me that he’d seen the Hoodoo Gurus recently and they have one of the most rocking live shows he has ever seen… and Pecka has seen more than a few!

So take it from our roadie, this is a show you’ll want to see!

It’s all happening on Thursday 12th February from 7:30pm at the corner of South & Bignell Roads, Moorabbin.  This is an over 18s show, so you will need photo ID at the door.

Tickets are available for just $22 (plus postage), which also entitles you to 10% off any main meal at the Sandbelt Hotel Bistro.  To put it mathematically: dinner + show = a perfect pre-valentines night out!  I always knew my grade 2 maths would come in handy one day.

Thanks for supporting Australian rock, and we’ll see you at the show.  Don’t forget to add it to your calendar.

We may be jetting off to New Zealand in about a week, but we’re not leaving before getting live and loud for Australia Day!

Actually we’ll be more ‘chilled out’ than ‘loud’, as we’re playing a special unplugged acoustic show at the Three Crowns Hotel on Sunday 25^th January, a.k.a. Australia Day Eve.  The weather bureau shows it could be a hot night, so it’s a perfect time to show your green and gold and sink a few tinnies with the three of us (Adam, Marki and Doctor K).  In the spirit of the occasion, we’ll be belting out nothing but Australian music, so expect to hear plenty of Cold Chisel, Hoodoo Gurus, Billy Thorpe, Nitidus (hey, we’re Australian too!) and many more timeless pub classics.

Show starts at 9pm, so come down and croon with us.  Check out the full details on Last.fm and be sure to add it to your calendar.

It’s 2009 so we thought it was time to do something big.  Nitidus will be making a rare once-in-a-lifetime performance at this year’s A.R.E.A 9 festival in New Zealand, the land where it all began!

Here’s the low down from the A.R.E.A 9 Myspace:

A.R.E.A 9 Music Festival will be held Waitangi weekend (6-8 Feb) 2009. It will feature some of New Zealand’s top musicians and entertainment personalities, as well as featuring some of New Zealand’s favourite extreme sports. Here at A.R.E.A 9 we are proud kiwis and want to celebrate our great New Zealand lifestyle but also want to contribute to the preservation of one of New Zealand’s rarest birds, the Black Stilt. Held “somewhere” in the heart of the MacKenzie Country, South Canterbury A.R.E.A 9 is preparing to be a festival that kiwis will look forward to and embrace with extreme dedication. So watch this space for more info as we create an event not to live without.

Marki, Doctor K, Adam and PC will reunite on stage at 4:30am on Saturday 7^th February 2009. We’re super excited and can’t wait to meet all our kiwi fans there.

Early bird tickets have already sold out, but tickets are still on sale for $200 plus booking fee.  48 hours of non-stop music at picturesque Lake Ohau, it’s certainly going to be a weekend to remember!

A.R.E.A 9 is presented by the The Mission Controlled Events Company Ltd.
