WTF have they done to Ric's
Where:
Ric's Bar, 321 Brunswick St, Fortitude Valley
When:
Thur Mar 25, 9.30pm
How much:
Free
Description:
Back in the day, you could almost guarantee that any given night at Ric's would be a good one. There'd be friends everywhere, great music and seemingly bottomless drinks. But times have changed and so has Ric's. Amidst the needed renovations, all that can be said is when you cover up the stains and putty up the holes, you also bury memories and start to miss the sticky floor.
Oh Ye Denver Birds
What:
Oh Ye Denver Birds
Where:
Ric's Bar, 321 Brunswick St, Fortitude Valley
When:
Thurs Oct 15, 10pm
How much:
Free as!
Description:
It might be magpie season (yet them cyclists wear those cable ties on their helmets all year round) but no snoopy magpie is going to steal Oh Ye Denver Birds' limelight no matter what time of year. The band swoop Ric's this Thursday evening, joined by Mapletons - who mix prettiness of pop and folk with an electronica vibe.
The Shiny Brights
What:
The Shiny Brights
Where:
Ric's Bar, 321 Brunswick St, Fortitude Valley
When:
Wed Sept 23, 10pm
How much:
Free as
Description:
Whenever I get scared about the actions that have taken place on the weekend I just think quietly to myself ‘well I'm not too old yet' and the justification soothes me. I hope this is exactly what The Shiny Brights were thinking when they named their latest single ‘Not Too Old'.
Loomer/Geese
Description:
This Saturday, your favourite My Bloody Valentine song, Loomer, plays at Ric's, and depending on whom you believe, their (I hate the word ‘psychedelic') shoegazey sounds will leave you feeling cold, or leave you feeling breathless, just the same way this really long sentence does.

What:
Honky
Where:
Ric's Bar, 321 Brunswick st, Fortitude Valley
When:
Fridays from 8pm
How much:
Always free
Description:
Honky, interesting name even more interesting night. Upstairs every Friday night at Ric's is where Honky resides. After attending for a few weeks it has become clear that Honky is a great start to any weekend. You are treated with a diverse selection of DJs led by master of ceremonies Dommy Rocket, playing you everything from Queen to MIA till 5am.
Peel St Band
What:
Peel St Band
Where:
Ric's Bar, 321 Brunswick St, Fortitude Valley
When:
Sun Aug 16, 4.45pm
How much:
Totally free
Description:
The Peel St Band is made up of some of the most naughty and entertaining boys Brisbane has to offer the world. They used to be members of the infamous RDC crew, but now give back to the scene with their sweet, humble indie pop gems, which remind me of the beautiful Yo La Tango. Go see them before everybody else knows about them.
Biff Co.
What:
Biff Co.
Where:
Ric's Bar 321 Brunswick St, Fortitude Valley
When:
Thur Jul 30, 9pm
How much:

Description:
The Thursday night slot this week at Ric's goes to talented Biff Co. Jimmy, Simon and Noel are back after a short hiatus doing god knows what! (Probably watching Heroes or something). Anyway they bring their very own brand of Led Zeppelin-inspired rock out into the cold winter night, so get down to Ric's and enjoy.

About
FourThousand is a subcultural guide to Brisbane, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Brisbane writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence FourThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
