Welcome to the Gyroscope March News!
And sheesh, is there a lot of it this time around folks. We are so busy running around getting everything into place for the Some of the Places I Know Tour that we barely know where to start.
Ah yes, the Some of the Places I Know Tour! Kicks off this very night at Newcastle University folks, which is very exciting indeed. Following that up on Friday night will be Wollongong University. As always, for your excitement and to quell your interest all tour dates and ticketing links are at the bottom of this mailer.
In most thrilling news for Brisbane based Gyro fans who may have been upset by the cancellation of the inaugural The Lost Weekend Festival - we have announced Brisbane headline date! Yep - just for you. But it's selling fast so be sure to heed the info below and get your tickets quick smart. It's going to be hot, sweaty and a whole bunch of intimate fun:

Now, as you sure know by now, Gyroscope are poised to unleash they brand new (and might we add, very awesome) long-player COHESION. It's out April 9th - now, that isn't so far away. As such we're stepping up all the exciting information we reveal to you excellent Gyro-nerds.

Simply follow the instructions on the card, and you'll get an email with a download link when the album comes out on April 9th.
Another way to pre-order COHESION is to get the digital download for it along with your show tickets! Remember, all you gotta do it head to: http://gyroscope.oztix.com.au and check the album bundle option. We'll then send you one simple album download link when the record is released. Or, if iTunes is more your thing, they have also jumped on the Gyro album pre-order bandwagon. Hit up the iTunes store to pre-order Cohesion complete with two bonus tracks. Rad!
Now, possibly our favourite (and definitely the most exciting) pre-order option is the crazy JB Hi-Fi limited edition pre-order. Seriously, this is so cool. Not only do you get a beautiful limited edition digipak version of the artwork - you also get it signed by the band! In addition to this this version is jam packed with a whole swag of Gyro goodness including:

More where that came from, we'll be releasing another of those soon so stay tuned to the mailer!

SOME OF THE PLACES I KNOW TOUR
GYROSCOPE ADD LAST MINUTE BRISBANE HEADLINE DATE!
Gyroscope are currently teetering on the brink of their Some of the Places I Know tour. Set to kick from one very rocking gear into another through March, the Some of the Places I Know Tour will now include a very special & intimate Brisbane headline date.
Due to the recent (and very sad) cancellation of the inaugural The Lost Weekend Festival at which Gyroscope were slated to appear, there has been a whole hunk of effort expended to bring deprived Gyroscope fans the following last-minute headline show:
SATURDAY MARCH 6th X AND Y BAR – BRISBANE, QLD
648 Ann Street, Fortitude Valley Doors: 6.00pm, on-stage 9.00pm – 10.00pm
Tickets:$25.00 presale / $30.00 on door if available
Tickets from - Oztix: gyroscope.oztix.com.au / www.xandybar.com.au
Gyroscope have a hard-earned, proud legacy of commited and consistent touring. As such, the prospect of leaving some very disappointed Brisbane fans in the lurch would simply not do. With their lengthy history of playing some of the most exhilerating pub and bar shows going around, it was essential that a small sweaty Gyroscope show be put together for both old and new fans to experience the fresh new songs live and loud!
Don’t miss it, after all – it is for you. There are only limited tickets available for this date, so get in early to secure your place at this very special headline show.
Gyroscope enthusiasts in other territories also have something to smile about. The lads will be bringing their much lauded and very eager live show to a whole swag of cities on this Some of the Places I Know tour. All dates and ticketing details below. Brace yourself to hear for the first time some noisy new tracks from the fresh new record COHESION, out April 9th.
