NOW THIS IS GOING TO BE A SPECIAL DOUBLE FEATURE!
After huge crowds and stunning reviews from shows in Brisbane, Sydney and Adelaide, two of the greats of Australian rock, the inimitable PAINTERS AND DOCKERS and the legendary JEREMY OXLEY of THE SUNNYBOYS, will bring their combined show to MEMO Saturday 03 October.
At this unique event Oxley will join the Dockers on stage during their set to perform several old Sunnyboy classics. Jeremy Oxley is thrilled to be back on stage again. “I love being involved with The Dockers. They have always been such a fun band. I’m personally a huge fan. It’s a perfect match for me.”
“It will be awesome to finally bring the show to Melbourne, as we have had such great fun performing with Jeremy in the other states,” said Paulie Stewart from the Painters and Dockers.
“We have known Jeremy for many years, as both the Sunnyboys and The Painters and Dockers, were managed by Australian rock legend, Lobby Loyld in the 1980’s.”
“The Dockers played many of the Australian dates on the last ever Sunnyboys tour, which included a show in Sydney at the Enmore Theatre, in front of a packed house that included Australian Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese.”
Adding to an already special night, The Painters and Dockers will perform their seminal album BUCKET in entirety @ MEMO Saturday October 3rd. BUCKET, has been a critically acclaimed, high-energy live album, that captured the band at their absolute peak and over-the-top glory. Originally released in 1986, it remains a fan favourite and a definitive snapshot of the Melbourne live music scene.

The spirit of the Beatles, the greatest band of all time is being used to promote the YES vote in the upcoming Referendum.
The famed Abbey Road mixing desk, where The Beatles recorded all their material has been used to record a tune promoting the YES campaign.
Recently, veteran Melbourne punk band, Painters & Dockers, got to use the famed Abbey Road mixing desk, which is now installed at Museum of New and Old Art (MONA), Hobart where the band finished their 40th anniversary national tour.
The original console, used to record and mix music at Abbey Road, is the centerpiece of a new recording studio at the MONA.
“Just touching the desk and the dials was magical,’’ explained Docker Dave Pace
“It’s only four tracks. Most people have more facilities on their home computers.
“We wanted to do something special, so being passionate about the upcoming referendum, we decided to re-jig an old Dockers tune “ADVANCE AUSTRALIA WHERE?’’ to promote the YES campaign,’’ said Docker’s front man, Paulie Stewart.“We know the referendum vote is going to be close, so we are all keen to do anything we can do to support the YES campaign,’’ says Paulie.
To hear and view Advance Australia Where? (23), filmed by Maggie Miles of Savage Films while recording at MONA, go to:
