MCV 271 - Rawhide

Rollin' rollin' rollin'

 

JOSH DARE has watched Brokeback Mountain one too many times.

 

Let’s see - it's been about three months since you've been able to go to a Rawhide party (on New Year's Eve), and pushing five months since you've been able to rock it in fully fledged Rawhide day party style (on Cup Weekend). Darn tootin', all that pent-up partying must be driving you up the hoo-ha by now. Well giddy up cowboy, coz the Rawhide collective are swingin' back into Chaser’s for Good Friday - and what a damn good Friday it will be.

 

Tunes supplied by the awesome Rawhide DJ posse comprising of Matt Steer, Jake Kilby and Luke Leal in the main room; Scott Anderson, Claudia and Pete Newton in the trance room; and Dan Murphy, kdj and Murray Hood in the house room. Buckle up, kiddoes - it's gonna be a hell of a ride.

 

Better still, it's at the bargain price of $40 – yee-ha! For a full nine hours of partying (11am-8pm) at this caliber, you'd be hard pressed to find a better offer on this big ol' slab of land. That is, until the after party. And there's a new little house on the prairie.

 

Think there's gold in them thar hills? Close - try silver. For the first time, the after party will be held at Silver's in Toorak. Entry will only be a measly ten smackaroos, and there'll be a free shuttle bus between venues - so there's no need to saddle up behind the wheel between parties.

 

You'll have to be a quick draw McGraw to avoid disappointment though - tickets just went on sale last weekend, and Rawhide events always sell out.

Rawhide @ Chaser’s, Friday April 14 11am-8am. Tickets $40, on sale from the usual outlets.
