24.01.2022 Introducing Allan Clark on Double Bass......
24.01.2022 Need a fix of Rockabilly?? Can't dance, but you can still enjoy the music. First band kicks off at 6pm. Come along early to get a seat. Covid restrictions enforced.
24.01.2022 Rhythm Ratz would like to announce that we have a new Bass Player and will be introducing him tomorrow night at South Tweed Sports Club. Allan is proving to be quite a good fit with the band and we look forward to working with him. Bruce Baker has decided to disassociate himself from the band and we wish him well in his future endeavours. We hope that you continue to support Rhythm Ratz in the future; we'll still be providing a great rockin show as usual!

19.01.2022 Had to share; this is gorgeous!! <3 <3
18.01.2022 Food for thought.... ** Re Post ** It’s oh so true!... Next time you say some crap about paying $5-10 to see 2 local bands and 2 touring bands... [1] Sit on the door at a gig sometime and watch the surprise with which punters respond to being asked to pay a $5 per head entry fee. [2] Then sit at the bar for a while and watch the largesse with which those same people will shout all their mates beers at $8.50 a head . [3] Take a look at the gig poster. How many bands are on the bill? If it's four bands, then do the maths and figure out that each band is going to get $1.25 from your entry fee, minus costs. And if that band has four members, each will get 31 cents, minus costs i.e, Fuel, Posters, Advertising, Venue Hire, Soundman.etc, etc, etc [4] While you're admiring the poster, ask who designed it, and the flyers, who printed them, who distributed them and at what cost. [5] Ask the bar manager what the bar has charged the performers for venue hire - you may well find that amount to be hundreds of dollars. [6] Ask the bar manager what the bar returns to the performers from alcohol sales - you may well find that amount is exactly zero dollars, and they have charged the bands for any drinks they may have had also. [7] Ask the sound operator and the lighting operator what they are charging the performers tonight. [8] Ask the band where they rehearse this music and what the rental cost on their practice space is. [9] Ask the band what time of the day/night do they compose, arrange and rehearse this music, and what impact does this have on their family life and their income earning potential from extra-musical jobs. By the way it's far more than likely they will have day-jobs than not. [10] Ask the band if - given all the above - their labour is futile. They will tell you that, on the contrary, it is highly worthwile. Happy Musicians' Resilience Day!! (Re-post if you're a Musician)

17.01.2022 Rhythm Ratz would like to thank Rockin Suzies for having us play at last Saturday Night's Dance. The boys had a ball and it was great to catch up with friends before the Coronavirus situation worsened. Also, special thanks to Tony Vanda who filled in on double bass, not to mention Jake Schembri & Luke Schembri who had been busy learning our tunes in readiness to help out at two other gigs. Thanks also to Cliff & Maryann Jolly for lending some equipment; much appreciated! All going well, Rhythm Ratz will be back next year to do it all again. In the mean time keep safe.......
