GTM 2010: Bunbury Event Mooves to a Greener Pasture at Hay Park
And Bendigo Event Sells Out!

BENDIGO VIC | TOWNSVILLE QLD | MAITLAND NSW | CANBERRA ACT | BUNBURY WA
MAY 2010

It has been a HUGE four weeks for GTM 2010. First a massive line up announcement, then the Maitland show sold out in under a week, NOW we can announce that in only two weeks the Bendigo show has officially sold out AND with the support of Bunbury City Council and ticket buyers in WA, GTM Bunbury will moove to a new location; Hay Park, Bunbury.

Bunbury City Council and His Worship the Mayor David Smith worked together with Sunset Events to ensure the event was moved to a more suitable location after the community of Bunbury indicated a high level of support for the event through strong ticket sales.

“It has been changed to accommodate what has now become a bigger event where the extra space will allow for a more orderly presentation of these outstanding bands. I’m certain that with the high standard of security and management, and its scheduled finish time of 11pm it will be an event well received by the community,” announced His Worship the Mayor David Smith.

Dave Chitty from Sunset Events said, “We'd like to thank the music loving community of Western Australia for their support of Groovin’ the Moo, which has culminated in the event moving from Pat Usher Foreshore to Hay Park to better accommodate the demand the public has shown.”

On a national level, the support and response from all communities for the five GTM shows has been unprecedented.

"The response to this year's GTM has been incredible. Maitland sold out in 4 days and Bendigo in 2 weeks. Townsville, Canberra and Bunbury are all selling strongly, so if you are planning to come along to any of these shows, please don't leave it too late to buy your tickets or you may miss out,“ said Stephen Halpin (GTM Promoter, Cattleyard Promotions).

Stay tuned for further announcements in regards to local artist announcements and community initiatives.

Tickets are selling quickly across the remaining shows, but are still available for the Townsville (QLD) 2 May, Canberra (ACT) 9 May and Bunbury (WA) 15 May shows.

Grinspoon's sixth studio album Six To Midnight has received a tremendous response so far, debuting at #4 in the ARIA charts and winning mountains of praise from fans and reviewers alike. The first single Comeback, the latest single Summer, have both received huge reactions, gaining high rotation on most major TV & radio stations, with the latter destined to be one of this summer's biggest hits.

Legendary US producer Rick Will (Johnny Cash, No Doubt, Nine In Nails) was behind the albums' production & mixing duties, and has delivered one of Grinspoon's finest records to date. The band returned to their spiritual home town of Byron Bay to record the album, which helped them capture their affinity for a good live hard rock record, something the band really wanted to achieve.

Grinspoon's return to the live scene earlier this year saw them play to a wild and overflowing main stage at this year's Splendour In The Grass festival, which went down as one of the band's most memorable gigs to date. A sold out launch tour on the east coast in September soon followed, with Six To Midnight released at the same time. Their loyal army of fans received their first taste of the record in a live setting, and judging by the reaction, it's one of their best yet.

Grinspoon will tackle the national Big Day Out tour in early 2010 alongside artists like Muse, Lily Allen & Mars Volta, and also played a special one off show with Cold Chisel at the V8 supercars after party in Sydney last weekend.

In celebration of all these great things, Grinspoon have decided to do what they do best and hit the road for a national headline tour in March 2010, their first major national tour since 2008. Come and see why Grinspoon have been proclaimed one of Australia's premier live acts, time and time again.
