Are there any shows soon?

Yes! There are!
If you're over 18, or bold enough to try to get in anyway, and live in Sydney, you have no excuse not to attend our very own CD Launch show this friday at the Empire Hotel, helping out will be our good friends the Casino Rumblers, Ebola Goldfish and Steppin Razor.

On the very next night we will be having our long overdue debut show in Queanbeyan with Melbourne's favourite angry-minor-ska enthusiasts, Sounds Like Chicken. Head on down to the Queanbeyan Concference Centre for a super-great show this Saturday.

In other news myspace is still going spastic after Strong Like Sam. Thanks to all youse kids for supporting local music!

Oh yeah, I guess the gig tonight will go ok. I mean. They have sold a million tickets.

Yes. One Million. The big one oh oh oh oh oh oh. That's how many tickets have been sold for the gig tonight. Rest assured that photos and awesomeness will be directed towards the internet as they become available.

If you hate everybody who's going tonight and hence cannot attend, or simply did not get a ticket, remember that Saturday with Strong Like Sam at the Sgreenroom will rock as hard - if not harder.

Is it warm in QLD? It's war*mer*...


As anybody in our great pointy north-pointing state (with palm trees) will know Los Cap will be making a triumphant return to the Coolangatta Hotel this weekend, in amongst a romp of Brisbane, the scale of which could be not unreasonably described as "two other shows, one at the Jubilee Hotel - Brisbane and an instore appearance at Skinny's Records".

Those plain words would, however, fail to do justice to the obscene amount of fun that we are preparing to have as we return to the site of "possibly the loudest, brightest, most confusingly porky show ever."

Poster above... and now - Some more talking!

Once upon a time we were in high-school, and when we organised a show, it wasn't just another show, it was like some kind of really important-don't-screw-up-cool-thing. I had forgotten this until I went to Ska-Wars and remembered how awesome a gig you can make with an all-ages crowd. The bands were awesome and the crowd rocked out like never before. Well done organising dudes - it was super-rad.

Don't forget to say "hello" and "you suck" at the myspace site and check out 1000 new gigs.

New Photos? Pete's Birthday? Porkers Return?

Friday night at the annadale saw the triumphant return of everybody's favourite rockin' ska band, The Porkers. With Pete Porker celebrating his birthday, The Porkers were accompanied by Newcastle's Pornskas, Melbourne/Japan's Mach Pelican, and yours truly.

It was an amazing night and Pete ought to be congratulated for putting it all together. I hope you can all join me in giving him permission to enter into some severe self-back-patting action the likes of which the world has never seen and may never see again.

In other news, the los cap merch has expanded it's business with heaps more t-shirts, heaps of No Fun Intended and free sample cds (yes! free! as good or better than cheap!). Make sure to check it out here on the web or at a show!

Remember to visit the myspace site as well! It's pretty rocking and you can meet all kinds of crazy kids and be friends and send each other bulletins etc etc.

Also, photos have been a bit slow lately here on the web, but we're experimenting with a new system over at flickr. You can see the photos here or check out the badge below!

Brew. haha?

Laughable beer or Sydney Youth Festival? Well according to the Ashfield council it's a festival in Ashfield and according to us we played at it with gnarly pyschobilly zombie type guys Zombie Ghost Train. The venue was a dusty dust filled bowl of dust, a fact which didn't escape one particularly astute onlooker who dubbed it "Fairly dusty". Despite the dust the crowd skanked verily and a tip top time was had by all. The fitness can be witnessed in a photographic form above...
