Gig Of The Week: Short Stack, Heroes For Hire

Saturday July 16
Short Stack, Heroes For Hire,
The Tivoli, Fortitude Valley, QLD

Say what you will about Short Stack (they have received a lot of negative press; not a surprise considering their huge success and relatively young age) but they are a live band first and foremost.

Cutting their teeth on the all-ages circuit, by the time these lads were a teen sensation, they had played hundreds of shows, and perfected their live act.

Heroes For Hire are an upcoming band, dabbling in the same power-punk pool as Short Stack, and this time next year, these guys should be a national concern.
