Fun punk rock in the library with Little Lungs (from
Brooklyn, USA), Alphabet Snakes (Melbourne) and Bare Arms. 7pm -
10.30pm, Sat 27th Feb.

Come and help organise the Jura library. Shelving, labelling and book ordering all need to be done. All welcome!

Jamez, a friend from Singapore, will lead an open discussion in the Fanya Baron Library on some of the political and social movements in Singapore. Jamez is active in animal protection with ACRES (see: http://www.acres.org.sg/) and is also active in the political DIY hardcore punk scene in Singaprore, so will be able to touch most on these topics but these are by no means the only topics that will be discussed. Come along and find out what our neighbours are up to!

This month's performers TBA.

--------

On the last Thursday of every month we have an acoustic show in the Fanya Baron Library at Jura Books.

Bring a piece of wood with strings, a tube with holes, your humble vocal chords or just your ears to listen. There’ll be a headline performer, but aside from that, the night is open to whoever turns up. If we get enough people then we may even spread downstairs for some spoken word, poetry or just another performance space.

At every event vegetarian food and refreshments are available. Donations are appreciated to pay Jura’s mortgage and other bills.

This month's Juracoustic is merging with the Limited Express (Has Gone?) + Ni Hao! (2 bands from Japan!) show that was meant to be taking place at Dirty Shirlows.

That means there’ll be Juracoustic downstairs and punk bands upstairs!

It will start at the usual time of 7pm. We gotta fit in about 7 bands/artists (possibly more?) in about two and a half hours so come early!

If you want to go upstairs for the bands, we’re asking for $10 entry (it costs a lot of money to come from Japan) but if you’re only coming for Juracoustic the usual $5 donation will be very very much appreciated.

So.. playing the downstairs Juracoustic couch will be:

Playing the Fanya Baron Library will be:

Limited Express (Has Gone?) (Japan)

Ni-Hao! (Japan)

To the North (Brisbane)

Hira Hira

The night will take a form sort of like: band upstairs, acoustic downstairs, band upstairs, acoustic downstairs, etc etc. While bands are playing upstairs, feel free to make as much music noise as you want downstairs. Singalongs, open mic, all that usual stuff.

There should also be food available by donation as usual as well.

Thanks. Hope to see you there!
