YOU CAN CALL THEM ECSP

It's excitement central at the Prince with the announcement of Melbourne's very own EDDY CURRENT SUPPRESSION RING. They're crazy, they're kooky and sometimes a little spooky but hey, that's why we love them.

Tickets are $20.00 + booking fee; book online here and don't miss out.

BETTERDAYS TEAMS UP WITH RON CARROLL

Sunday 7th June heralds the Queens Birthday long weekend and what a better way to celebrate Her Majesty's 83rd birthday than by coming to see RON CARROLL perform live at the Prince Bandroom. BETTERDAYS has teamed up with American singer/song-writer, who mixed the debut double album - "Betterdays" - which will be launched on Sunday 7th. FRANKY D, having mixed one of the two CDs on the album will also be performing a live set.

GET READY TO LAUGH YOUR EARS OFF...

This man needs no introduction but I'm going to do it any way: MARK 'CHOPPER' READ is performing his notorious stand-up show on Thursday 14th May. He's been shot, stabbed, run over and was once made to dig his own grave - all of which makes for a hilarious (and often disturbing) comedy act. Uncle Chop Chop will enlighten, entertain and probably send some people running for the toilet. It's all part of the show really.

BECOME A FAN OF THE PRINCE

It's official - the Prince Bandroom now has a Facebook group. By joining you can stay posted on new gigs, updates, on-sale dates and other things I'm yet to think of... you can also ask questions and view photos of recent shows.

If you can't be bothered looking for the Facebook group yourself follow the link here.

LAUNCHING BROWN PAPER BAG

Don't you just love it when a whole lot of really sweet bands get together and play on the same night? Especially when it's a night at the Prince? Which is why I applaud you BROWN PAPER BAG for bringing together some of Australia's finest Indie/Rock bands on Thursday 25th June. Featuring THE FEARLESS VAMPIRE KILLERS, YOUNG LOVERS, RED INK, THE FROWNING CLOWDS, FORMER CHILD STARS, THE DOWLINGS and finally WILFRED JACKAL, Brown Paper Bag is giving you the chance to see all of these killer bands for the killer price of $15.

EVERYBODY LOVES A FREE SHOW (ESPECIALLY ONE WITH YOU AM I)

If I could wish for just one thing it would be a show where YOU AM I play, preferabally supported by some other really awesome Australian bands, and where I wouldn't have to spend a penny.  Well kids, Chirstmas has come early because that's exactly what's happening on Friday 29th May thanks to the JD SET AWARDS 2009. Supporting YOU AM I are THE SHINEY BRIGHTS (SA) and GLASS CEILING (NSW).

Doors open at 8:00pm so make sure you rock up nice and early.

THE BLOODY BEETROOTS RETURN

If the Misfits and Daft Punk had a love child these guys would be it. The masked-crusaders of awesome music, THE BLOODY BEETROOTS are coming to the Bandroom on Friday 26th June and it's going to get messy. Well-known for their out-of-control live shows (YouTube them and prove me wrong) this is one show that can't be missed.
