Running In The Shadows Concert

Saturday 16th February from 8pm

Australia’s #1 Fleetwood Mac Show

When: Saturday 16th February from 8pm

Where: WAVES

Tickets: $25

The greatest challenge for a Fleetwood Mac tribute band is picking the songs to play on the night, as they have all been hits.

Established 15 years ago by Gary Stewart and Ursula Cain in New Zealand, Running in the Shadows is Australia’s No.1 Fleetwood Mac experience.

This international act is now based in Sydney, performing every weekend to capacity crowds in some of Australia’s top venues, Twin Towns, The Cube, Evans Theatre , and the Cairns Casino, to name a few. On February the 16th 2019 this show will be performing at Waves – Towradgi.

This show has built up a fan base of loyal supporters from their 20’s to the avid followers in their 70’s.

However, this show is more than just a tribute, said singer Clodagh Reid who sings the romantic tones of Christine McVie. “We bring the raw passion and energy that Fleetwood Mac displayed throughout the 70’s, it’s because we love this band, and the music.” Reid said.

Ursula Cain is an authentic reproduction of Stevie Nicks as she not only works her way through the large Fleetwood Mac repertoire, but also the music from Stevie Nicks solo career.
“The best compliment we can get from the audience is that they close their eyes and thought they were at a Fleetwood Mac concert” she said.

The show has not forgotten the roots, when Peter Green formed the band in the mid 60’s as a blues band.

February 16th 2019 at Waves- see the venue or Mostix for tickets.

NO QUARTER – Hammer of the Gods Tour

Thursday 29th November from 7.30pm

Hammer of the Gods Tour The Ultimate Led Zeppelin Experience

Led Zeppelin fans – be on notice. You are about to witness the legendary British supergroup in all its glory and excesses! Widely hailed as “the best Led Zeppelin band on the planet,” (Dennis D’Amico, Exec. Prod. Paul McCartney), NO QUARTER, Hammer of the Gods Tour is pounding its way to a venue near you soon, all the way from Seattle US.

Rolling Stone magazine credited the band for keeping the Zeppelin spirit alive in a 2012 Collector’s Edition of Led Zeppelin. This is an authentic reproduction of Led Zeppelin’s groundbreaking stage show, so faithfully recreated that original band member, John Paul Jones said that “I never have to worry about touring with my band again.”

No Quarter has been wowing audiences all over the world in their authentic tribute stage show for more than 15 years and has shared the stage with such legendary artists as Peter Frampton, Foreigner, Steppenwolf, Loverboy, Jefferson Starship and many others. Band members take on the characters of John Bonham, John Paul Jones, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant and bring each of them to the stage in their absolute prime. This is more than a tribute act, NO QUARTER capture all of the subtle nuances and mannerisms of the characters they are representing just like actors in a film. Fans who have seen the original band will think they have returned and will have the opportunity to relive the magic. Fans who never had the chance to witness the supergroup won’t believe their luck and will finally get to experience the iconic and groundbreaking stage show for the first time.

“If in fact, you have never seen the real Led Zeppelin in concert, seeing these guys live is as close as one can get. They have all the moves, they know every note of every song…. it is just amazing how well they impersonate the real thing.” John Tuckness, Daily Herald, Chicago.

NO QUARTER, Hammer of the Gods Tour features Michael Anderson channelling Robert Plant on vocals – Nathan Carroll portraying drummer John Bonham, Chad McMurray playing bassist/multiinstrumentalist John Paul Jones and the fleet-fingered Byran Christiansen as Jimmy Page. The British supergroup famously refuses to reunite following the death of John Bonham in 1980 other than a one-off gig in 2007. THE LED ZEPPELIN EXPERIENCE has stepped into the breach, keeping the band’s fans satisfied and the spirit alive.

Witness a moment in history come to life and don’t miss the pounding, haunting experience of NO QUARTER, Hammer of the Gods Tour at WAVES Thursday 29th November!
