*Explanatory Note – Participant Status

Club Rules designate Random Bands as a Special Interest Group (SIG), that is, a short-term or one-off activity or project for members, former members and guests. A guest or former member becomes a Special Interest Member on payment of the applicable activity/project fee, and is deemed to be a temporary Member of the Association only for the duration of the Special Interest Group activity or project in order to comply with the “members only” rule for eligibility to perform at a Club event when that event is approved as part of the SIG activity or project.

Saturday 19 June 1:00-4:30pm at the Gov.

The SA Live Music Club presents another fun afternoon with four great bands in The Gallery at The Gov (former Restaurant Room performance space).

1.00 Cold Sweat
1.55 The Poorleans
2.50 The Jetty Boys
3.45 Rock Solid

Come along, show your support and have a great afternoon.

By popular request, Random Bands is back.

Like Random Jam, this gives members, former members and guests the chance to play with new people or try out a second instrument in a random band.

But Random Bands takes it a step further with a chance for each random band to play at a one-off gig at the Gov.

We are saddened to learn of the death of our friend and former club member Kylena Vigus in Cairns.

Kylena performed in the Weekend Warriors Round 19 concert in July 2008 and then in various SA Live Music Club bands where she made many friends. She moved to Cairns in Far North Queensland where she pursued her musical career, singing in an acoustic duo in many of the clubs, bars and venues in that city and in various towns and centres along the coast.

The past 12 months were challenging for Kylena, made even more difficult by the loss of performance opportunities as a result of covid restrictions. Kylena found an outlet for her creative talents during that time by making and selling a range of arts and crafts products in her unique artistic style.

In happier times, a few club members managed to catch some of her shows during their visits to that region. They and other Adelaide friends kept in touch with Kylena and gave her support when they could during difficult times.

The SA Live Music Club expresses its condolences to Kylena’s family and friends for their sad loss.

Donate your 10¢ container deposit recyclables.

We invite all members to join our painless, on-going Club fundraiser in collaboration with Clarke Brothers Recyclers.

How it works:

• Use the form here to send a message to Clarke Bros.
• They will deliver a clean, washed drum to your address. It’s about the size of a wheelie bin.
• Gradually fill the drum with your 10 cent deposit recyclable containers.
• When it is full, contact Clarke Brothers. They will collect it and leave you an empty one.
• The recyclers will credit the Club $10 per full drum.

Please see https://salivemusic.club/recycle/ for more details and information about how to join the scheme. Feel free to share or forward to friends and family who might wish to donate their refunds to the club.

Looks like we are collateral damage from Facebook’s dispute with the Australian Government over news content.

Like many other community groups, it seems that all our content has been blocked from Australian viewers.

It’s possible that you might still be able to see it in some browsers or by clicking the link in our Facebook feed in the right hand column. However, we aren’t sure that posts are showing up in followers’ Facebook feeds and there still seems to be an issue viewing our page via the Facebook app.

We are sad that this is happening. We are not a news site, nor a government-related site. We are a reputable, well-established, not-for-profit, community-based social club for recreational musicians and singers.

Facebook has announced that it will be starting an appeals process around 25 Jan for affected community groups to request that their pages be reinstated.

We’ll follow it up when that happens. Meanwhile we’ll continue to publish information for our members and interested followers here.
