RocKwiz undertook its first ever Live National Tour to nineteen cities across the country - and what a trip!

It started with a hand wave to the Rock Brain himself while we were waiting in the foyer enjoying some pre-show drinks. Brian Nankervis spotted us and closed in with camera lady... 

Tears for Fears were ‘Gold’ Live

Tears for Fears were ‘Gold’ Live
Twenty five years … a quarter of a century … that’s a long time for anyone to wait to see one of their beloved bands ! But that’s how long it had been between drinks for Tears For Fears to return to Australia.

The only drawback on the night was that their set was... 

John Butler Trio Live

John Butler Trio Live
Firstly, we must thank the John Butler Trio for putting Adelaide first as the capital city to kick off their latest One Way Road World Tour instead of being left to last, which is so often the case. Secondly, we must thank them for putting on one hell of a live show. They might be a relatively new...

RocKwiz Live
I always wanted to attend a Music Quiz TV Show, so I decided to do something about it ! I planned my next trip to Melbourne when visiting my brother to see if we could make this happen. Talk about getting lucky … not only was RocKwiz recording at The Espy but my brother knew someone who was... 

Gurrumul Live

Gurrumul Live
I, like so many other Australians, saw Geoffrey Gurrumul Yununpingu perform live at the ARIAs and was mesmerized by his performance. I got hold of his “Gurrumul” album as soon as I could. But if you told me I’d get to witness him live within the next month I wouldn’t have... 

Ben Folds Five Live
