We Scrapes will be doing a couple of sets in between bands. If you've seen any of our live aktions of late then you know....you know....Don't miss it!

Live Delay For All Tonight

Hello travellers to The Scrapes' planet,

Exciting news for those of you who dig what we do but live far away from Brisbane! Our local radio station 4ZZZ 102.1 FM, and their excellent Live Delay programme are broadcasting an entire live set from our recent residency at The Bearded Lady, a bar in Brisbane's West End. This is an unusual chance for our distant listeners to hear us in our most intense environment...a dark corner at the back of a pub...

It will be broadcast 8PM Australian Eastern Standard Time tonight, Friday the 15th of August. 

YOU CAN FIND OUT WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW HERE

AND STREAM IT ANYWHERE HERE!

It will then be put up in the on demand section at the Zeds and as it appears on the Live Delay blog I imagine they'll put it up as a soundcloud stream as well...

Sections of this performance have been re-recorded in the studio recently for inclusion in our new album The Songs of Baron Samedi. See if you can figure out what we think are the choicest cuts from this delicious living creature...

Listen hard!

Adam

22 August Primitive Gattling Scrapes

Scrapes Forensics

A huge thank you to all who came along to the final residency performance at The Bearded Lady on Sunday night the 27th and an extra special thanks to those dedicated comrades who came to every one of the gigs...you know who thou art.

Thee nexte Scrapes performance is later in August. The 22nd for that matter. ONCE AGAIN at The Mighty Bearded Lady in Brisbane's only mostly PUP-free area West End. This time it's a big one for the BRISBANE FRINGE FESTIVAL and we're pairing up with the excellent PRIMITIVE MOTION to bring you some cutting-edge sonic brainstorm....whatever that is...even we don't know...I just made it up then. Doors around 8pm and it's FREE.

The following day we Scrapes will be involved in THIS

THEN THEN THEN on 30 August we will be performing at the annualish Psych Night at an undisclosed warehouse location.  If you know what this is about you know what this is about. It looks to be huge.

That's right we will be busy busy in August. To top it off we will hopefully be sifting through the captured sounds from our residency gigs in order to complete our beast of a new long-player THE SONGS OF BARON SAMEDI which promises to take you to places our previous records hadn't even heard of yet.

OK here's some more photos from our residency performances brought to you by the excellent Reuben Warburton. Indeed he's even responsible for that wonderful pic you no doubt saw when you headed here....the one up there...scroll up....here's some more...

Will bring you some more photos in the near future dear reader/listener to keep you from getting bored/mental before your next Scrapes fix. 

See you then,

Dr Adam
