Following on from their successful debut back in October and in the wake of them scoring numerous picks for Top Ten Gigs of 2009 from I94 Bar contributors, the R&B powerhouse that is Mick Hadley (lead vocalist of 60s legends, The Purple Hearts) and The Others make a triumphant return on their East Coast R&B Circus Tour. Spurred on by an extended set list including most of The Purple Hearts A&B sides plus some classic ‘60s rhythm and blues rave-ups, this mighty quintet are ready to deliver some non-stop, get-down action. Many punters missed out on getting to see them last time round so get in early to make sure you’re there to eyeball all the moves as the ultimate Aussie front man kicks up his heels, quite literally. Supports come in the form of Johnny Casino and his Secrets churning out their bruising power chord attack, Sydney fuzzed out beat supremos The Booby Traps, Melbourne’s finest bunch of garage miscreants, The Breadmakers and Geelong groovers, The Frowning Clouds.
