Thursday 4th February

DEADLY ARE THE NAKED
BAD DECISIONS & THE CONSEQUENCES
CHAIRMAN MEOW
GREAT EARTHQUAKE

It’s a dangerous double header… DEADLY ARE THE NAKED bring their hi-energy funk rock to Pony with the aim to provide maximum pleasure, maximum riffs, maximum energy with no downtime, while BAD DECISION AND THE CONSEQUENCES backup their recent headline show at the Arthouse with another round of no holds barred punk n roll. Playing their scuzzed out, brain stomping rock and roll early will be CHAIRMAN MEOW, with the help of previous Falls Festival act GREAT EARTHQUAKE and his mind bending solo show, looping every instrument possible into his unique breakbeat style.

9.00pm


1am tunes by OUTRUN / FREE

Friday 5th February

DELTA REDS
TIGERNAUTS
SWIDGEN
KING PARROT
Delta Reds are a thrash punk band featuring members of Jed Whitey, The Abandonment and Extortion. Delta Reds headline the brutal rock and metal entertainment at Pony on Friday February 5th with supports Tigernauts, coming fresh off being asked to play the last Sunday afternoon at The Tote. Swidgen, who are putting the final touches to their grimey new album, and King Parrot appearing for only their 2nd gig and featuring Melbourne metal drumming psychopath Matt Rizzo. It’s also Fred & Youngy's birthday so all the more reason to come and rock out.
9:00pm

2am late show:
FATHOMS / FREE
Local newcomers Fathoms are popping their Pony cherry in the most dangerous way possible: smack, bang, straight into the 2am late show. With songs that will gnaw at your ears, pound your chest and you’re your pants flap, you better comes prepared. After all, we know there’s no better way to settle into a long night at Pony than to catch some thumping tunes at the hands of three of Melbourne’s most handsome. Ladies and Gentlemen, Fathoms.

STEPPIN' RAZOR / THIS WAR / FREE
It’s the 5th year of the Ska-b-q in a row, and this year the party doesn't stop. Hitting up the 2am slot is Sydney kids Steppin' Razor.
