It has been a year since I resigned from Hot Damn! and Destroy All Lines with the intention of dropping out of the club game and doing something useful with my life. Perhaps actually using that piece of paper I spent five years at Sydney University trying to get. Maybe finally biting the bullet and booking that flight to Europe. However the lure of drink tickets and strobe lights dragged me back into promoting and UP TO OUR HIPS was born.
What started as DJ's after bands at Spectrum grew to include SEX & GLUE at Oxford Arts, the very cool but unfortunately cursed SEVEN SEVEN SEVEN at Club 77, a bunch of great shows, some awesome releases, UTOH DJ slots, lots of plans including zines and art in the works and now we've come full circle to where I started doing all this shit three years ago with our new baby, EX NUNS down in Phoenix.
At the end of this month, or Friday March 27th to be more precise, we will be celebrating one year of UP TO OUR HIPS. Our first birthday, referred to in some circles as 'one more year DB has avoided reality and continued to shirk real responsibility while living out some ridiculous fantasy to be 18 years old forever' will be a big night, with two parties running simultaneously before culminating in one massive rage fest in Phoenix.
In Spectrum, our friends in GAY PARIS, YEAH BEARS, MR VENGEANCE and POCKETS will be playing very, very loud music. Entry is only $10 and doors are at 8pm

MR VENGEANCE - http://www.myspace.com/mrvengeanceband

As you would expect we will have the UP TO OUR HIPS DJ's playing between the bands to prevent awkward silence and keeping your blood circulating so you'll be ready to dance at a moment's notice.
If seeing a bunch of bands isn't your thing, then head downstairs to Phoenix where are more CDJ inclined friends will be flicking through their cd wallets and keeping the dancefloor busy. We open the doors for EX NUNS at 9pm with that ridiculous JAGERBOMB SPECIAL going till 11pm.
What JAGERBOMB SPECIAL???
Between 9 and 11pm you can pick up four Jagerbombs for only $20. $5 a piece. That is insane, and the perfect way to get your evening started.
Entry $10 or FREE if you have a stamp from paying to see the bands.
M-A-S-S-I-V-E B-A-R-G-A-I-N
The EX NUNS PARTY will be going till 5 or 6am, so basically when the leather cleaner catches up to everyone. The drinks are cheap all night, $4.50 beers and $5 spirits.
It should be a great night for all involved so come down and let me give you a hug for being awesome and helping me do the things I love to do.
