It's a Shore thing!

There’s only one place to be on New Year’s Eve: At Shore Thing with the midnight fireworks lighting up the beach while David Guetta lifts our spirits with huge tunes and a dazzling mega video installation, Armand Van Helden shows why he’s always at the top of the house music game and youngsters The Aston Shuffle treat us to their first ever live show, which they’ve already been working on for months, ready to unleash for us on New Year’s Eve!

I've heard that there's no other event like Shore Thing: It’s an out and out P.A.R.T.Y, a celebration of hot summer nights, Sydney and the beach, with a euphoric soundtrack to take you into 2011 with a big cheesy grin on your face! I'm soooo keen!


Details of the event:


December 31, New Years Eve


Bondi Park, Bondi Beach


8:30pm – 3am


Standard ticket: $135+$7bf


‘More Expensive’ ticket $225+$7bf


The aptly named 'More Expensive' ticket includes a dedicated express entry lane to the event, champagne on arrival, entry to the exclusive and exotic Beach Bar featuring a raised platform with direct views of the stage, a s**t load of toilets and no lengthy queues for the bar

Cloud Control - There's Nothing In The Water We Can't Fight

Thought i'd go local. The indie Australian band have initiated their next move in taking over the world, the new single There’s nothing in the water we can’t fight. Im pretty sure I had most of the lyrics in my head after the first listen. If you stripped some of the delayed guitar and country feel out of this, it could almost pass as a Shins track, but thats not a bad thing in the slightest way. This song is quite unique!


Have a listen!

Artist in the Spotlight: Cat Stevens/Yusuf Islam

Cat Stevens was born Steven Demetre Georgiou on 21 July 1948 in London. His two earliest albums Tea for the Tillerman and Teaser and the Firecat went triple platinum in the USA and his next album Catch Bull at Four sold 500,000 copies in the first two weeks of its release.


At the height of his fame, in 1977, Cat Stevens converted to Islam and concurrently adopted the name of Yusuf Islam. In the next couple of years he auctioned away all of his guitars for charity and abandoned his music to attend to educational and philanthropic causes in the Muslim community.


In 1969 he came close to dying of tuberculosis, and as a result he began investigating other religions, took up yoga and meditation and became a vegetarian. During this time he wrote about 40 songs, most of which would be published later.


A further experience that changed his outlook on life and music was in 1976, when he nearly drowned off the coast of California. Feeling as though all was lost he cried out "God, if you save me I will work for you!" Shortly after, a wave came and drew him to shore thus saving his life. His brother bought him a copy of the Qu'ran for his birthday after a trip for Jerusalem.


Cat Stevens was in Australia earlier this year in June 2010 for the first time in 30 years. To see him play the first song he ever released, "I love my dog" please click the link below.
