MI-SEX | SPACE RACE REBOOTED | Baroque Room Katoomba

REVIVE β€˜N’ JIVE REBOOTS IN MAY 2022
Due to COVID-restrictions, which have limited the capacity of the Baroque Room, and means fans must remain seated and wear masks at all times, we’ve taken the difficult and heart-wrenching decision to reschedule Mi-Sex at the Baroque Room to Saturday 7 May 2022.
As you’re aware, Mi-Sex is a high energy new wave band, so we didn’t want the show experience to be anything other than a massive event, first gig back. We want to see our fans on their feet dancing and singing along to Mi-Sex’ timeless classics. As a result, we feel it in the interest of us all, and live music more broadly, that we reschedule the show to Saturday 7 May 2022.
Please accept our sincerest apologies.
Although all tickets purchased for the earlier date remain valid for the new date – Saturday the 7th of May – so we would encourage you to hold onto your existing tickets. Of course, if you’d prefer to receive a refund, then that’s ok too.
BUT THE BAST NEWS IS, WE CAN STILL PARTY LIKE IT’S 1985!
Retro Rehash presents Australia’s seminal new-wavers Mi-Sex at the Baroque Room Katoomba on Saturday the 7th of May 2022, with very special guests Safire Palms & Joshua Joshua.
ONE SHOW ONLY | DOORS OPEN 7PM
JOSHUA JOSHUA 7:45PM // SAFIRE PALMS 8:45PM // MI-SEX 10:00PM
IMPORTANT TICKETING INFO: There are both General Admission and Concession tickets available for this event. Concession applies to people aged under 28 years who are students and/or under-employed persons, so please respect our generosity by purchasing the ticket that best reflects your demographic and socio-economic circumstances.
MI-SEX | 40 YEARS OF SPACE RACE
In memory of our dear spiritual leader and founding member, Don Martin, Mi-Sex returns to the stage in 2021 to celebrate the 40years of the group’s timeless classic LP, Space Race.
1969 may have been the year that man first set foot on the Moon, but 1980 was the year that Mi-Sex launched Space Race. This makes 2020/21 the 40th Anniversary of the record that features the timeless classic hit singles β€˜People’, β€˜It Only Hurts When I’m Laughing’, β€˜Living In September’ and the LP’s famous title track, β€˜Space Race’.
In a killer set and massive live show that includes all the hits from Mi-Sex’ debut LP, Graffiti Crimes, Space Race (1980), Shanghaied! (1981) and Where Do They Go? (1983), Mi-Sex promise to consecrate the soundtrack of a generation – β€˜But You Don’t Care’, β€˜Computer Games’, β€˜People’, β€˜Blue Day’ and β€˜Castaway’, alongside a few newbies, just for laughs.
JOSHUA JOSHUA will open proceedings with his genre-bending dreamy journey exploring themes of identity, toxic masculinity and sexuality in the 2020’s, followed by the lovechild of Tame Impala and Darth Punk, the Blue Mountains very own Safire Palms.
SAFIRE PALMS is a super-psych-funk four piece delivering the smoothest tunes for your listening pleasure. Comprising jazz-fusion stylist Nic Macken (Spooky Men’s Chorale) and Riley β€˜funker’ Hunter on bass, beautifully balanced with the wah-esque driven rhythms of Rory Wilson on guitar and hard-hitting beats of Bailey Brown on drums, Safire Palms’ feelgood funk will get you off your seat and on your feet, to shake those COVID-blues away.
JOSHUA JOSHUA is a solo electronic artist from the misty Blue Mountains, Australia. Fresh off creating an interactive visual album with his band Enerate, JOSHUA JOSHUA found time for introspection and self-exploration and set off writing his debut album ‘Rush’, which is slated for release later this year. His live set takes the form of an indie-disco pop show that transcends a casual party rave and multi-sensory experience.
SPECIAL INFORMATION
COVID-safe social distancing and capacity restrictions apply, so this first ticket release is limited to only 96 (general admission). If COVID-restrictions are relaxed anytime soon, then a second ticket release will be announced. But let’s not wait to party – Get the party started! Grab your ticket now.
