The Underground Stage
“If you’re going to put some bit into a party, you’re going to need some FANGZ. After exactly one year of Chuck Trailer’s throwing killer weekends in the CBD, there are few bands more appropriate to soundtrack the candles being blown out and shots being thrown down. It’s loud and chaotic, physical and glorious, party-time […]
