Riverfire Details!

Yes, it's time for 'The' Concert on the BMCB's year!
We need to be assembled at the museum by 5pm. You can get in via either the front or back gates - but if you are bringing drinkies then make sure you use the BACK one, or the security guards will confiscate them.
There is limited parking at the museum (off Dock St) and Mack will be on the gate. Otherwise park at Southbank (or catch the bus) and walk over. Dress in black and tell 'em at the gate you're with the band :)
Please limit guests to a couple of family and friends each. Being allowed to stay at the museum for the fireworks is a special privilege that comes to us via Mack and Al - we don't want to abuse it.

Our next performance is the band's absolute favourite on the BMCB calendar... RIVERFIRE! This is a private concert at the Maritime Museum and is not open to the general public. Details will be emailed out to members closer to the date.
The BMCB's next park gig is the day after Riverfire... great planning! Sunday the 31st August at Mt Coot-tha.
The Big Band will also be out on the park circuit again soon, which means another night off for the rest of us ;) You can find the details of both BMCB & BCBB concerts on the events page.
In other news, the Battle of the Bands council auditions are now a bi-annual event, to match up with the Queensland Festival of Music. The next one will be in September 2009.
We have the week off :)

Yup, that's right. There will be no band this Thursday night - 12th of June. We'll be back the week after. So break out the credit card and hit the stores (or bars!) for some late night shopping.
Or you could stay home and practice, hey Stewart? ;)
