The 15th annual In the Pines festival, RTRFM’s big fundraiser of the year, will be held on Saturday 14 April 2007, at Somerville Auditorium at UWA in Crawley.

Once again it will be a highlight of the Perth music calendar (in the past it has seen bands like Jebediah, John Butler and Little Birdy perform), with 20 bands lining up to rock out!

The first seven have now been announced:
Abbe May and the Rockin’ Pneumonia
Burton Cool Suit
Eleventh He Reaches London
The City Watch
The Dee Dee Dums
The Devil Rides Out
The Kill Devil Hills

The second seven announced on 19 March:

Dom Mariani and the Majestic Kelp
Institut Polaire
Painkillers
Schvendes
Sex Panther
Stina
The Leap Year

Last 6, announced 24 March:

Day of the Dead
Hexagon Halfblood
Streetlight
Sugar Army
The Slow Beings
The Tucker B’s

I think it’s well worth the $20 entry!! RTR subscribers only pay $15, and if door sales are still available, it will be $20 for subscribers and $25 for everyone else.

Tickets are on sale from Dada and 78 Records in Perth, Mills in Fremantle and Planet in Mt Lawley. Subscribers can only get theirs at RTRFM in Mt Lawley.

This is an 18+ event, bring a picnic and blanket (but no byo), and it will go ahead rain or shine (performers in marquees).

It’s happening from midday to 10pm, and to repeat, it’s on a SATURDAY this year.

See the RTRFM website for more info.
