This show is outside on the grass at 4PM (weather permitting). Wet weather arrangements are described here
Update Sat @11:30AM:
It stopped raining in Upper Lansdowne at around 9:30 after only 1-2mm and it’s warm and breezy right now.
The BOM radar shows the rain system passing mainly to the south, so it’s looking good.
See you there!

This show is part of The Swamp Stompers final tour, so you don’t want to miss them.
They play funky rock and blues with heavy grooves and if you like that sort of music you’ll love these guys, because they sound like the musical lovechild of The John Butler Trio, Led Zeppelin, and Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Searing slide guitar, contrasting dual-lead vocals, catchy guitar riffs and dubstep inspired didgeridoo soundscapes give this original blues-rock band an irresistible flavour combination that has earned them a reputation as one of the most promising up-and-coming Australian acts to emerge in recent years.
The powerhouse trio has stomped their mark on festivals such as Caloundra Music Festival (QLD), Blues at Bridgetown (WA), the Sydney Blues & Roots Festival (NSW) and our own Lakeside festival in Forster/Tuncurry with rave reviews from punters and peers alike.
- ‘‘Catchy grooves, intelligent songs and youthful hunger – this band has the right mix of potions to take Australian blues and roots to the next level. One of my absolute favourites.’’ – Lloyd Spiegel (Australian Blues Legend)
- “We highly recommend you check these guys out as we firmly believe that they will be Torch Bearers of roots music in the 21st century.” – Neil Mumme (Festival Co-Ordinator, Great Southern Blues Festival Narooma)
Support:
- Support is The Ethan Stewart Trio a popular, local blues/rock band, who got a great reception last time they played at the hall. They will open the show and play for 30-45 mins
