The Fiction & The Gas Babies George Lane, St Kilda • Saturday September 19 • 2.30–5.30pm

Melbourne punk originals The Fiction return to the stage for a special matinee before heading to Japan in October. Formed in 1978 and still delivering sharp, infectious pop-punk, they’re joined by St Kilda garage-rock veterans The Gas Babies, back with their raw mix of ’60s garage and ’70s rock ’n’ roll.

Two bands with serious Melbourne history — and they still rock!
