Kiltlifters - rallying on New Years Eve!!

Kiltlifters on New Years Eve!!! That's right, we're pretty stoked...we haven't played a New Years Eve show since the huge CHUM TV bash in downtown Nanaimo a few years ago. Deli trays were rallied then, and Saltspring Porter will be rallied this time.

Kiltlifters New Years Eve Party
Moby's Pub, Ganges, Salt Spring Island
10pm start
$4 cover... cheaper than any pub or bar you might go to!
19+

And... to the Nanaimoites... come on down and check out side projects of different Kiltlifter members: Jimmy Hazzard and Macaque, playing at the Cambie on Friday, Dec 29th!

December shows

Aight, here's the heads up....

We Kiltlifters have two shows booked in December. The first is a return to the Mt. Washington Alpine Ski Resort... Fat Teddy's Pub, to be precise, Saturday Dec 16. We're playing with a number of other acts as part of the mountain's annual food bank benefit. So, it's only gonna cost ya some food or toys to get in!

Event starts at 9pm...not sure what time our set will be. Anyway, we'll be rallying down the slopes all day during the day, so come find us on the lifts or in a heap in front of a pine tree.

Second show is up in Cumberland, and one of our fave venues: the Waverly (Waverley?), Friday Dec 22. Give yourself an early Xmas present and come out to the show... rumour has it that Dr. Tre is! Start time should be somewhere around 9pm, I'll confirm this as we get closer to the show.

Finally...a quick reminder that 4 of us Kiltlifters are in a side-project band called "Macaque." We're opening up with the Droptones for the legendary Skatalites at Legends Pub in Victoria, this Sunday, Dec 3rd. Doors are at 8, so I expect Macaque to be in your face at around 8:30. Tix are 25 bucks at the door, or 22 in advance at Fascinating Rhythms in Nanaimo or at Lyle's Place, Ditch Records, or the Strathcona Hotel in Victoria. Check this show out!!
