23.01.2022 Us Goats have heard FABULOUS reports on this duo from Melbourne and are STOKED to have them perform at our first ever OLD FASHIONED MUSIC WEEKEND! GREAT AUNT is an Americana/Roots duo from Melbourne rambling a musical line between the plaintive and the joyous. Their music is raw and austere, simple and bold; full of stomping feet and clapping hands, chants and harmonies, whispered words and soulful lament. Set somewhere between a Gospel Church in Louisiana and a dimly-lit s...peakeasy in Melbourne, listeners will hear tales of joy and grief, whiskey and wine, gratitude and purpose-seeking. Great Aunt gives us folk-based Americana music tinged with shades of Bluegrass and Gospel and capture the true spirit of this genre with their soulful renditions. - LA Music Critic Blog. EARLY BIRD PRICES END THIS SUNDAY!!!

18.01.2022 G’day GAS-Goers, Some important info for our upcoming weekend of FUN! We are following the COVID event checklist in order to present a safe weekend for you all, so PLEASE support us in this regard. It’s been a massive job with copious amounts of red tape and covid hoops to jump through so now all that’s left to do is follow the rules and have fun.... We have emailed the required paperwork that every person in your group must fill out for entry. It will save time at the gate if you could please print and fill this out to bring with you. Ok if that’s not possible as we will have blank copies on hand at the gate. Please remain in your car at the gate and we will come to you to check you in. Please remember that if you’re not well, DO NOT ATTEND as we are happy to shift your booking to a future event or refund your money in the interest of everyone’s health. We will be social distancing and providing some hand sanitiser stations and disinfectant wipes etc, but if you can bring your own sanitiser too then we’ll be extra prepared. The gate opens at 3pm Thursday afternoon so you are able to come set up camp to settle in before the music starts at sundown on Friday. Gates are open until 10am Monday and you are welcome to stay over Sunday night and join in the Trivia night hosted by some of the artists. Please remember to leave your dog at home or in a pet resort nearby. We have a few stalls selling FOOD, coffee, clothing and hand-made goodies (including the Fire Brigade’s cakes and raffles) and of course there is a MERCH STALL with GAS gear and artists merch. Please bring cash (and we do have Eftpos) and support the artists as 2020 has seen the arts industry struggle immensely. Town is 40km away so be sure to bring all the supplies you need. We are on rainwater tanks so if you would prefer not to drink this then BYO water or there will be some bottled water available for sale onsite. BYO chairs FIRES we have just been given the go ahead for small contained fires in campsites BUT they MUST BE CONTAINED in rings or pots. We will have some communal fire pots in the campgrounds and close to the stage area. *this is subject to change with the fire restriction updates* CHURCH OF GOAT Sunday morning gospel session on the main stage features all of the artists onsite although you may not recognise them in their Church Gear. Over the years the costumes have transcended the stage and a good chunk of the audience like to get in the spirit and dress up for church your choice. It’s lots of fun and a great way to start the day. That’s about it we can’t wait to see you all at our place! Bryce & Mahney

"Mic Conway with Robbie Long" & "Open Season" Unfortunately Slim Dime and Blue Limit (both from Victoria), are unable to make this year's Old Fashioned Weekend, BUT, we are excited to announce these 2 AMAZING ACTS to our lineup! We are now VERY SERIOUSLY CLOSE TO SOLD OUT!!! Don't hesitate as under 20 tickets remain :) ... Welcome OPEN SEASON! - Marrying traditional folk and modern country akin to genre heavyweights Old Crow Medicine Show and Zac Brown Band, Open Season represent the exciting new wave of country music. Boot stompin', hootin' and hollerin' old-fashioned fun, paired best with a spilled beer. They're the boys your mama warned you about ... and WELCOME - "MIC CONWAY & ROBBIE LONG" ... !!! In a circus of comedy, music and magic, Mic Conway presents an hilarious array of idiosyncratic songs that will make your jaw drop, toes tap and sides split. Audiences who know Mic from his days with "Captain Matchbox Whoopee Band" and Circus Oz will be delighted by this incarnation: Mic as storyteller of tall tales and true. There are new songs and some oldies close to Conway's heart. He croons "It’s Only a Paper Moon" and a heart-breaking version of "Mad World", dispenses good advice in "Never Bite a Married Woman on the Thigh" and revisits Captain Matchbox classic "My Canary Has Circles Under His Eyes" and Tom Lehrer's "Masochism Tango". There's magic, juggling, cavorting and that trademark tongue-in-cheek sense of humour. Stripped back, irreverent, and shameless... it's surreal vaudeville for crooning and swooning. https://www.trybooking.com/BGXOE

10.01.2022 2 MORE SLEEPS until TICKETS GO ON SALE! The GOATS are excited to introduce JULIAN JAMES to you.... Everything about JULIAN JAMES shouts the love of traditional blues for all to hear. His style is rooted in the old-time acoustic strummers of a bygone era, and he joins next generation artists such as Larkin Poe, Blind Boy Paxton and Pokey LaFarge in bringing authentic new voices to a style that has endured for 100 years.... Still in his twenties, Julian James has spent most of his adult life on the road, first as front man of Blues festival heroes ‘Catfish Voodoo’ and on his own. 2019’s ‘Silver Spade’ is the second album in his catalogue as a solo artist and Julian brings the experience of a seasoned performer and a fresh perspective to this set of traditional songs by artists like Ma Rainey and early Muddy Waters, as well as originals like the title track Silver Spade. Says Julian of his love of old blues: Catfish Voodoo played straight Chicago Blues, so I started with Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, and Willie Dixon; and then when I went out solo, I just kept going back in time and discovering people like Mississippi John Hurt, Leadbelly, Son House and knew that’s what I wanted to do. Tales of love, loss and debauchery from 2018 sit happily with their ancestors from the 1930’s as James deliver his laconic vintage drawl from some porch or other. This man is a MUST SEE!!! GRAB YOUR EARLY BIRD TICKETS THIS SUNDAY! You don't wanna miss out #julianjames #silverspade #lookingforalight #thegas #oldfashionedmusic #4nightscamping #3dayevent Julian James

06.01.2022 It is with much sadness that we are writing this statement after days of uncertainties and deliberation with the outbreak of COVID-19, but we feel it is our duty to respect the health and safety of our Artists, Volunteers, Stallholders, Locals, Families, Friends, Fans and everyone involved in the Old Fashioned Music Weekend at the GAS. We are now proceeding to POSTPONE this event until September 2020. We have spent this week communicating with our artists and involved par...ties, and we have also had extensive conversation with our local health and environmental officer from Fraser Coast Council. Whilst the event is still viable, it is apparent that we are making the best decision as swiftly as possible with everybody’s best interest in mind. We feel for everyone at this time as this unprecedented situation is affecting us all in different ways and we hope that our decision can aid in the arrested development of this virus. We would like our ticket holders to consider transferring their tickets to a future event (either Sep 25-27, 2020 ... or April 9-11, 2021). As you are aware it is important that we carry on our continued support for each other and Australian Industry in general and we will be transferring our cancelled artists forward to future events. We need to Keep the Music Alive and hope that we as a country can get back on track as soon and safely as possible. Our thoughts are also with our local Rural Fire Brigade as the GAS has become a fundraising event after once again, a devastating bushfire season. We thank you for your understanding and we are aware that everybody’s situation differs. Should you request a refund on your tickets we are more than happy to do so in light of the unfolding pandemic. We of course are inundated with messages and we will address your messages individually as we work through this. Stay safe, take care and we hope to see you at the GAS soon. Lots of love, Mahney and Bryce
