If every Halloween fell on a Friday, we could legitimately spend each October 31 getting trollied dressed as our favourite vaudeville carnie without turning up to work the following day sporting a genuine wish-we-were-dead hangover. But it only happens once in six years (that's counting leap years.

The Pet Rocks
Remember pet rocks, that slightly deranged 70s fad? Probably not. But ask your parents; they were the hemp-and-macramé era's answer to Cabbage Patch Kids and Tamagotchis - clean, cheap, well-behaved, um, pet rocks. Well, The Pet Rocks are none of these things. But they're just as laid-back and worthy of your attention.

St Helens have songs that'll tear you up in both the misty-eyed and torn-to-shreds senses. Led by tough romantic, Jarrod Quarell - of Melbourne's best, now-defunct junk anthem outfit, New Season - this group numbers Ian Wadley and Spider Vomit's Hannah Brooks in its ranks, but most importantly plays a blinding set of Royal Trux-infused, balls-to-the-wall rock.

Earthdance Fundraiser
Unless you plan on being a moocher or emulating the Dire Straits classic, you can't get something for nothing. While EARTHDANCE 2008 is fast approaching - bringing DJs, bands and markets to Prince Alfred Park with free entry - they need some help raising the funds to do so. So what do we have to do? Not exactly playing the charity card, organisers are putting on a fundraiser this Saturday night, where you get to listen to the 32 odd DJs there for the money it would take to get a medium pizza and a coke.

There are times you might go to see a band because you're friends with the bassist, or you feel like a couple of drinks, or your crush is going to be there. But then there are the times to go to a show because you want to be punched in the face by a relentless barrage of noise and sweat. Such is the case with Talons, who can deliver on the above.
