A flyer for a Shirkers show. Not much is really going on in this flyer, but I'm sure it still did the job. The Shirkers were a late 90s/early 00s old school-ish punk band, members have gone on to play in the bands Stereo City, Brand Disloyalty, Staying at Home and ROFL, amongst others.

Meanderthal were an indie/rock-punk band from Sydney, also late 90s. Some of the artwork on this flyer looks like Glen Smith's (of Lawnsmell fame) but I'm not really sure if it is or not.

Hardcore Superbowl... I'm not really sure if this was affiliated with the Hardcore BBQ of the year before, or the subsequent Hardcore super-extravaganza shows put on by Resist in recent years, but this is pretty much the equivelent of said Resist Records-sponsored Hardcore shows (the most recent of which took place last weekend). Strangely, the Hardcore shows back then mostly had hardcore punk bands playing them, rather than the terrible metal bands they seem to attract now.

This was a weird show... it took place at the PCYC in Penrith and featured local metal legends Cryogenic and popular punk act Nancy Vandal as the headliners. Hassle Brigade were the 'big local support', and Speckled Foam and Skeptic scored the opening slots by winning a local band comp. There's something about band-comp related shows that just seem sort of sleazy. I dunno.
