Dave Warner's From the Suburbs - 50 Years Strong — live event

This October marks the fiftieth anniversary of Dave Warner’s from the Suburbs one of Australia’s most unique bands. `Suburban Boy’ Dave Warner, named by Bob Dylan as one of his favourite Australian artists, launched out of Perth with his 1972 proto-punk band Pus, then refined the concept into ‘suburban rock’ the Australian equivalent of Brit ‘kitchen-sink, angry young-man’ cinema.In the late 70s Dave Warner’s from the Suburbs crash-tackled a largely imitative Australian rock scene with unbridled energy and originality with album ‘Mugs Game’ going gold within eight weeks. Tracks like “Convict Streak’ and ‘Half Time at the Football’, precursors to rap, and sung in an Australian accent sliced and diced the country’s culture and led to Warner’s arrest for singing “obscene songs”.Now to celebrate that glorious era DWFTS come to The Bridge Hotel, Rozelle on FRIDAY Oct 9, 2026 for their only Sydney appearance, with most of the original ‘Mugs Game’ Suburbs in the line-up and some special guest…Doors open at 6.30pmShow starts at 7.30pmSeating is limited and unreserved
