Old Porker Lines up for Power Gig

FORMER Porkers guitarist Dave Power will debut his new band Bored Of Education at the Northern Star Hotel on Saturday night.

Power will be joined by vocalist Tara Doyle and former Marella Jube drummer Garrick Blow. Power describes the new music as 'high energy pop punk rock with ska and reggae'.

The group will showcase a set of new original tunes and tracks by Split Enz and German group Die Toten Hosen, which Power says transcribes as The Dead Pants in English.

Doyle will also join Power for a gig at the Northern Star on Thursday.
