22.01.2022 Covid 19! What a buzz-kill! No gigs to play, no gigs to watch, nowhere to go. It's starting to grate on us, I'd hate to be depending on this for a living. We are working on a plan to rectify this. There will be news posted here soon, so stay tuned. Stay safe - BT8!
20.01.2022 Here's a montage of clips from our recent gig at Surfside Motorcycle Garage on July 7th. Unfortunately, the sound is fairly poor quality
19.01.2022 Hope to see you all on Sunday morning at Surfside Motorcycle Garage .
17.01.2022 There's not many bands that have a wine named after them.
16.01.2022 Last week, we hinted at some big news coming up and suggested you keep an eye on our Facebook page. Well, this isn't it , but it will hopefully be a good thing. We now have our own YouTube channel. You can find it here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGhLO0Ih6sLKg2LwxftUg7Q/ Some of them are pretty old and the sound is lousy, but we hope you enjoy them.... If any of you have photos or videos from gigs, we'd love to put them up on this page or on the youtube channel. Just contact us through messenger and we can help you get them to us. All the best and stay safe. BT8 See more
15.01.2022 Some more pics of todays gig at Surfside Motorcycle Garage. It sure was cold ...... so cold it was difficult to play. Fortunately, the sun rose a little higher and we all thawed out. (pics by Michael Lester)
15.01.2022 Some photos from today's gig
12.01.2022 I'm really looking forward to this. Come and join us.
11.01.2022 Here's another clip from the Surfside gig. Again plagued by lousy recording sound, but you'll get the general gist of it. Our rendition of "Come Together". Hope you enjoy it.
11.01.2022 Just a few weeks to go, Behind the Eight will be back, bright and early at Surfside Motorcycle Garage, 42 Winbourne rd, Brookvale, providing a blues atmosphere for the American Bike Show and Shine. The Cafe will be open and serving breakfast, the bikes will be on display at their shiniest. It all begins at 9am on July 7th, we hope to see you there.
10.01.2022 hi folks, We posted recently that we have a gig booked at Collaroy in July. We are really hoping the world is back together by then and the gig goes ahead. So many have been cancelled of late, the industry is really suffering, but so are so many other industries. We hope that you're being sensible through this Coronavirus pandemic, and staying at home and practising social distancing. (I am in self-isolation... for the next 2 weeks). It would be a tad irresponsible of us to get together to rehearse or even jam at the moment, so we are going to do the adult thing and lay low for a while. BT8 hopes you all make it through this unscathed and we get to get together to enjoy some live music again soon. all the best from all of us. See more
09.01.2022 We lived in hope over the last few months that the covid bubble would have burst by now and the gig we had booked for July 11 would go ahead. Sadly, today I got notice that it will not be going ahead. The Beach Club has been working hard to get back up and running but the restrictions on the amount of people they can have on the premises make it impossible to put live music on at this time. In the meantime, stay healthy and safe, hopefully we'll be back sooner rather than later.
06.01.2022 Don’t forget we’re on tonight at the Collaroy Beach Club. They’ve got good food and drinks, we’ll deliver the good music! See you there...
04.01.2022 Two weeks to go until our debut at the Beach Club at Collaroy. The last 12 months have been a little slow for us, so we're really looking forward to getting back into the swing of things. We hope you can come along and enjoy a night of blues with us on February 15th, from 8pm. Looking forward to seeing you all there and please share this with your Facebook friends.
03.01.2022 Does anyone remember when we appeared on the Ed Sullivan show?
02.01.2022 As we draw closer to our previously announced, upcoming gig at The Beach Club in July, we have to face the reality that like every other gig, it will not go ahead. Behind the Eight hopes you're all staying positive through this crisis and we all come out of it ok. We're all grounded, but please stay busy and stay positive and it'll all be over before you know it.
