Dicey Riley's have teamed up with Yours & Owls to bring you a free weekly party of punk, rock'n'roll and alternative music. This week, we've teamed up with Filthy Crew & Associates, who are bringing you West End Fest...

For ages now there has been a thirst for more bands to come through Wollongong who wouldn't usually stop on their way through NSW. In an aim to bring some of the best bands throughout Australia to come together for a night of pure ridiculousness Filthy Crew and S_B86 have combined forces to bring you 'West End Fest'. 'West End Fest' is a mini-festival taking place at the last real pub in Wollongong and staple of the west end 'Dicey Rileys' on September 7th with a diverse lineup of bands from Melbourne all the way up to Brisbane and everywhere in between as well as some local favourites for FREE!!! We've worked very hard on the lineup and we hope everyone can come down and see something they like or find something they haven't heard before.

So here's the inaugural 'West End Fest' lineup


Step-Panther - Wollongong rock royalty
Flight To Dubai - Sydney garage/post-punk bad boys
ARSE - Sydney noise punk icons
The Nugs - Melbourne's premier skate/stoner punk outfit

ASCOT STABBER - Brisbane hardcore masters
Research Reactor Corp - Scientific rock and roll supergroup from Sydney

As well as DJ's Toxic Future and Bo Loser to wrap up the night, Shaggy Knees hosting the whole event and plenty more surprises including competitions, hot deals and prizes this is shaping up to be a night to remember. Can't wait to see you all there!!!!
