Black Creek hanging up their boots

Black Creek have been one the more exciting new bands around town in recent times so it was with a great deal of sadness I learned they’re calling it a day. Facebook has the news:

On the shores of LBG, stood 3 determined men and a slightly smaller determined man. The sun glared at them through the reflections in the water, covering their masculine bodies with a halo of light and shiny sun rays. They had slip slop slapped earlier. This had no impact on the powerful beam as it cut a path right through their flesh and into their souls. A face appeared in the shallows, it was a homeless man, but was it? He was wise beyond his years and s***. Everything he said sounded like a whisper in a church and cut straight to their cores.

“You are BLACK CREEK and you were born to rock, but you are getting a little older now. Your muffin tops are starting to bring unneccesary attention to your middle regions. Sure, you could work out a little. Maybe do the occasional bit of jogging, but that would just be prolonging the inevitable. You must use all your powers and do it one more time.”

Those men left the shores that day with their path laid out for them. They went to the chemist and got some aloe vera gel, it’s so soothing on sunburn. They were requested to rock one more time. One more time for the homeless man. One more time for themselves. One more time for YOU.

And rock they shall, at the Hellenic Club in Woden on the 22nd of June. So come down and raise a fly kick with these men as they say farewell to the stage.
