GYROSCOPE POSTPONE PERTH BENEFIT SHOW DUE TO BAND MEMBER'S MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT


Just a few weeks ago GYROSCOPE announced their first hometown show for 2012. Now, with great regret the band must postpone THE BENEFIT FOR DANA VULIN due to guitarist Zoran Trivic’s involvement in a motorcycle accident.

ZORAN TRIVIC was struck by a vehicle when riding his motorcycle in Perth last Monday and has sustained two badly broken legs. Although he is expected to make a full and complete recovery, the next three to four months will see Trivic undergoing several operations and undertaking full-time rehabilitation in order to get back on his feet.

GYROSCOPE are determined to make THE BENEFIT FOR DANA one memorable night, so have postponed it back to SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 22. The show will remain at THE ROSEMOUNT HOTEL and excellent local supports THE SCOTCH OF ST.JAMES and BOSTON & CHEVY have kindly agreed to reschedule also. Tickets already purchased for the benefit will be valid for the new date. Any punters who wish to seek a refund can do so by contacting Oztix: oztix.com.au / 1300 762 545.

Perth local, 26 year old DANA VULIN fell victim to a horrendous crime in her hometown of Rivervale, Perth two months ago. An intruder broke into her home, confronting her and dousing her body in methylated spirits, and setting her alight. This premeditated attack left Dana with burns to 60% of her body. THE BENEFIT SHOW FOR DANA will raise much-needed funds to aid Dana and her family with the expenses of medical treatment, legal fees and rehabilitation costs.

In the meantime, GYROSCOPE are also calling for donations to assist Dana. These can be made by visiting any Westpac branch with the account details, or via direct debit to: WESTPAC BANK / BSB 036000 / Account: 939549 / Account name: FOUNDATION FOR DANA VULIN. And snap up your tickets, take the next couple of months to get very excited and witness Zoran’s triumphant return to the stage in support of a very worthy cause.

Gyroscope announce Perth Benefit Show 'For Dana'


                  ANNOUNCE HOMETOWN BENEFIT SHOW
                                        FOR DANA VULIN


It’s true; headline shows for GYROSCOPE have been few and far between in 2012 thus far. But a call to arms for an incredible cause has hit home with the band and GYROSCOPE will return from hibernation to play their FIRST HOMETOWN HEADLINE SHOW of 2012.

GYROSCOPE are very proud to announce that they will perform live at THE BENEFIT SHOW FOR DANA, which will take place at The Rosemount Hotel in Perth on Friday 1st of June. This benefit is in aid of 26 year old Dana Vulin, who two months ago fell victim to a horrendous crime in her hometown of Rivervale, Perth. An intruder broke into Dana’s home confronting her and dousing her body in methylated spirits, and setting her alight. This premeditated attack has left Dana with burns to 60% of her body.

THE BENEFIT SHOW FOR DANA
will raise much needed funds to aid Dana and her family with the expenses of medical treatment, legal fees and further rehabilitation costs. Tickets for the show are $35 and go ON SALE on MONDAY APRIL 30 at 9AM. All proceeds from the show to be donated to the FOUNDATION FOR DANA VULIN.

This benefit is the brainchild of GYROSCOPE guitarist Zoran Trivic - "What has happened to my cousin Dana is beyond words, and never in our lives have we felt stronger about doing a benefit show. This will be a most special and important night, and the boys and I are really looking forward to tearing the Rosemount apart on behalf of a brave & amazing girl."

Gyroscope’s live show has kicked into gear and is raring to go, support is coming from buddies and exciting locals The Scotch of St. James and Boston & Chevy. Join three bands to raise money for a very worthy cause. If you are unable to make the benefit show, the band are calling for donations to help Dana and her family. Donations can be made by visiting any Westpac branch with the account details, or via direct debit to: WESTPAC BANK / BSB 036000 / Account: 939549 / Account name: FOUNDATION FOR DANA VULIN.

Perth date added to the Choose Your Own Adventure Tour!



PERTH DATE ADDED TO
THE CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE TOUR

Setlist announced for this week’s WA shows

GYROSCOPE have set the wheels in motion for what looks set to be one of their most exciting touring adventures ever. The great idea behind the now looming CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE TOUR is that Gyroscope’s much-loved fans dictate the songs performed live via a public vote. Now, the setlist for this weeks WA dates has been announced along a highly demanded hometown Perth show.

GYROSCOPEfans are equal parts dedicated and zealous in their hometown Perth, so it is with great excitement that the band announce the final stop on the Choose Your Own Adventure Tour will be an intimate one at the Rosemount Hotel. Fans can ring in the silly season with the Gyros on Friday December 02. There will be the special fan-chosen setlist and the local stalwarts no doubt be at their very best after a 5 month break throughout the middle of the year and a triumphant return to the stage.

Joining Gyros on this special show is a host of local Perth talent in ARTS MARTIAL and I, SAID THE SPARROW. Both acts have been making waves both in WA and beyond this year, and we hear their live shows take a leaf out of Gyroscope’s own balls out, thrill a minute rock show. The first slice of Arts Martial’s debut album (single Running) has been garnering triple j love, while I, Said the Sparrow have been venturing outside of WA this year, sharing stages with great acts like Trial Kennedy, Wolves and The Mission in Motion. A nice solid bill to give Perth fans a most memorable set of performances, start to finish.

While the setlist for this month’s WA dates have been announced (see list below) fans eager to ensure their favourite fresh or vintage Gyroscope tracks get a live airing can still vote for all east coast dates and the Perth show at Gyroscope’s Facebook page (
www.facebook.com/gyroscopemusic) Voting closes early November, so get your Gyroscope records out, re-learn the words and get voting here.
