Gyroscope November News



Welcome to the November News

Alright Gyro-fiends, we have some great and exciting t
hings to present to you this time around. The Gyro's have been busy as usual, and we have been following in their wake collecting all kinds of exciting content. But first things first - the Baby I'm Gettin' Better single has gone GOLD! We would like to extend our fondest thanks to all of you who have gotten behind both the single and the Cohesion album. Great work everybody!

Firstly, most locals must be aware by now that the Gyros brought their famous live show to the fore at Perth's Aberdeen St Oktoberfest last month. Seems like things got a little rowdy as the band documented their day via photos on Twitter & Facebook. Check out what a show day is like for the band by taking a squizz at
www.twitter.com/gyroscopemusic.More photos from that show here.

Western Australia sure is being spoilt Gyro-wise of late, with yet another mammoth announcement made - Gyroscope will be joining the mighty The Living End and one lucky winning band in the final JD Set performance of the year. As if this is not good news enough, it's all taking place in the stunning surrounds of Rottnest Island. Tickets are limited (and cheap!) and the promoters are offering discounted ferry ticket options. All the details for that one here:
www.thejdset.com.au

The rest of Australia, however
, is hardly being neglected. Two particularly mouth watering Victorian shows have just been announced. Gyroscope will hit Ferntree Gully Hotel on February 24th and Frankston's Pier Live on February 25th - these shows may be a ways away but don't be fooled, tickets are on sale already. Local upstarts Fangs will be holed up as support and they are so snap up tickets at Oztix: www.oztix.com.au / 1300 762 545.

Amongst the myriad of other opportunities to see the Gyroscope live show there is the Pyramid Rock Festival, Tasmania's MS Fest and of course, the 2011 Big Day Out Tour. All dates below - don't miss the Gyroscope live wagon this summer.


In non-touring news for a moment, Rob took time out last week to step into the shoes of a radio host. He stepped up to the microphone on Nova Perth's breakfast show, and by the looks of these photos he had a damn fine time doing it.


We think Gyroscope have produced some great videos to accompany the singles from Cohesion - and we hope you agree. This Saturday voting will begin for the annual RAGE Top 50 - allowing you to vote to your little hearts content for Gyroscope! You know you want to, right here:

On the subject of videos, we'll leave you with something to giggle at this time around. Check out the various bloopers and awkward moments captured behind the scenes of Gyroscope's What Do I Know About Pain video. We think that kind of cold would make anybody a little delirious, check out the action here.

More Gyro news coming your way next month as always.
Love,

Gyro HQ xx
