The Buzz… What Everyone Is Talking About

December is ‘Goin Off’ with Perth’s Nat Ripepi and electro-magnates 6000 Red playing a Homophonix gig at Hyde Park Hotel Dec 9 before ‘goin off’ to Melbourne for Midsumma. The next night (Dec 10) Canadian twins Tegan and Sara double the fun at Metropolis Fremantle, while Daft Punk, on what is widely rumoured to be their last world tour, come to the Esplanade on Dec. 16. Also on that weekend, Lionel Ritchie spends A Day on the Green at Sandalford Wines Dec. 15-16. Later in the month, the throwbacks role into town with the Divinyls of ‘I Touch Myself’ fame Dec. 22 at Fremantle Oval and eye candy of yesteryear Vanilla Ice… Ice Baby Dec. 30 at Metro City. For a DNB NYE (go, if you know what that means), Origin sends the Belvoir Amphitheatre into orbit. Then, it’s 2008 and festival time – Southbound Festival (Jan 4-5), Summadayze (Jan 6), Big Day Out (Feb 3), Good Vibrations (Feb 17), Soundwave (March 3). Tickets are going fast…
