Some gigs for this weekend..

According to Beat:

Friday night "burlesque-circus-jazz-tango-gypsy" combo Croque Monsieur are playing at Bar Open in Fitzroy. Quite an unusual band, a sort of cabaret blending all of those styles in ways that shouldn't work but somehow do. (My original impressions of this band are here: http://www.livejournal.com/users/strang_er/9209.html )

Saturday night, pirate punks Sforzando ("the Pogues meets the Pogues meets the Pogues meets a bunch of bogans from Mitcham") are playing at the Old Colonial in Fitzroy. Good for a jig and a drunken "oi oi oi, ahoy ahoy ahoy!".

Wonder what the chances of doing both are.

Oh, and for Simon:

No, but your description intrigues me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

I like all the elements, so i'm very curious to see how it's fused.
