RISO Launch Date Change – Now Sat 8 May
by admin on Apr.22, 2010, under General
We have regrettably had to change the date of the RISO launch to Saturday 8 May at The Bird as the venue is not able to open on Sunday 25 April due to unforeseen circumstances. More details to follow, but we hope the line-up remains unchanged. Most importantly the publication will still be as excellent!
If you have already bought tickets (you excellent people!) we will refund tickets if you can’t make the new date, but we hope everyone can. Ticketholders should receive an email soon explaining the options.
So the new date:
SATURDAY 8 MAY @ The Bird
181 William Street, Northbridge
8pm
$15 Entry includes a copy of RISO
We are truly sorry, but hopefully everyone can make the new date! Sometimes things just happen!

LIMV’s ANZAC DAY WEEKEND
Friday April 23
Head to the Rosemount Hotel in North Perth after 8pm, navigate your way through the beer garden and slip into the entrance to Bar 459. See Chris Cobilis, Lil Leonie Lionheart vs Rabbit Island and then to top it off – Ghostdrums.
You can buy a copy of the Ghostdrums USB on the night or just wait until you get home and have it delivered to your house or computer by purchasing it online.
Saturday April 24
Go to the pub, see a band, groan at Adam Sandler in the Saturday night movie, go bowling, roam the streets, whatever. buy a ticket to the RISO launch online.
Buying a ticket gets you on the doorlist to this event, as well as a copy of the publication and is therefore essential.
EDIT! Sunday April 25
Wander round the back of Kakulas to the Bird for the launch of LIMV’s RISO publication. You receive a collection of risographed posters featuring contributions from a number of Perth writers and artists. Have fun, collect your RISO publication on entry and see some awesome bands (Is Swan, Taco Leg, Astral Travel) and then go home, with the knowledge that the next day is a public holiday and you can sleep in.
DATE CHANGE!
We have regrettably had to change the date of the RISO launch to Sat 8 May at The Bird as the venue is not able to open on Sunday 25 April due to unforeseen circumstances. More details to follow, but we hope the line-up remains unchanged. Most importantly the publication will still be as excellent!
So the new date:
SATURDAY 8 MAY @ The Bird
8pm
$15 Entry includes a copy of RISO
The Bird has just got their licence, so this will no longer be a ’secret northbridge location’ or a ‘private party’ but we also encourage those who haven’t bought tickets to do so beforehand, as the capacity is limited.
