It is with some nostalgia and sorrow that I report about the de la Catessen Gallery. Luke Altmann has decided to shut the gallery as a music venue. It was a very important venue in the underground and experimental music scene in Adelaide, a place where like-minded people could meet and also the site of many exciting concerts and series. Of special importance to me was the Adelaide Festival of Unpopular Music, the Tyndall Assembly Concert Series, the concert for the Game Boy Australia 2007 Tour, the various milkcrate events and screenings and the Trianide Concert.
Thanks so much for all of the hard work that you put in to the scene, Luke. We really appreciate it. Also, thanks so much for the support that you have shown for Hidden Village - without you and the de la Catessen we would not even have existed as an ensemble.
More information about past de la Catessen events can be found in the archive.
