Brunswick this Weekend

How often do you get to feel you're contributing to something worthwhile and get to see heaps of awesome acts at the same time? Well, occassionally I guess, and this weekend is one of those occassions. Fork out $15 to help our brothers and sisters in East Timor and catch bands like the Detonators, Sime Nugent, Yanto Shortis and more at the Retreat on Sunday. Look out for a big Golden Parrot on display when you're there.
