Also on the bill is the JASON DONOVAN ENEMA EXPLOSION, featuring members of ONE MINUTE MILE, SANDPAPER, CONATION and BIG MEN FLY, playing covers of MINOR THREAT, DEAD KENNEDYS, ANGRY SAMOANS and CIRCLE JERKS.

FUN GUYS: YOU'VE seen them playing in bands such as THE SLOTS, MEN WITHOUT SHAME, DUST PUPPET and ZEBRA CONNECTION. So you'll already know that cover band BENDER, playing this Friday night at the Lemon Grove Hotel, is a fun-time, rock'n'roll party group. But we bet you didn't know that bass player JAS 'likes to eat light globes and razor blades'. Or that drummer NICK 'enjoys shadowboxing and breeding turtles'? What about guitarist CHRIS who 'is into tattoos and body piercings, but has neither', or guitarist and singer NAT who 'designs toothbrushes in his spare time'. Fun times indeed!
