Live Gallery: From The Gnomes to Private Function to Viagra Boys, Chaos Reigns at Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion 18.01.2026
Sydney is getting hammered by rain, and it somehow feels appropriate. Inside the Hordern Pavilion, The Gnomes kick the doors open with scrappy, straight-ahead rock’n’roll, warming up a crowd that already feels feral from the weather outside. Private Function follow with the kind of unhinged, all-or-nothing set that’s made them infamous, turning their final Sydney show into a joyous mess of noise, sweat and confrontation. By the time Viagra Boys hit the stage, the room is primed for release. Their satire-soaked post-punk lands heavy and absurd in equal measure, cutting through the storm with precision and bile. It’s a night where chaos feels earned — inside and out.

Live Review & Gallery: Lost Paradise NYE Festival Delivers on Aussie Summer Tradition – 29.12.25, Glenworth Valley NSW
One of my favourite things about Australia is our festival culture. Remote bush raves, dusty roads, cheesy doof sticks, no reception and championing Australian acts. This year, I got a chance to grab a taster of Lost Paradise Festival in the Central Coast’s Glenworth Valley – a huge festival located in lush bush about 1.5 …
