Melted pool of funky groove

Yes, the weekend just gone was a hot one for Groove Temple. It's already hot enough on stage with Groove Temple, especially with the searing energy generated from dance tune after dance tune. When late summer humidity hits the east coast of Australia, party people fry. Then G.T. turns on the smoke machine and it's like a scene from Dante's Inferno.

Groove Temple saw some great happening dance floor divas on Friday night 20th Feb at the Ocean Beach Hotel at Shellharbour, with birthday parties, a going away party for local girl Sam, heading off to Europe to work and of course a hens night. -Obligatory in Shellharbour every weekend. (It's in the contract. Seems lots of people get married in Shellharbour.)

Saturday night at Husky Pub in Jervis Bay was even wilder, due to numerous visiting athletes for the Australian Triathlon series. Fit people party harder & longer. A well known fact. Also there were even more birthdays celebrated, too many to itemise here. "OK I forgot all their names. I was too busy having a good time." said G.T. lead vocalist Ang.

"A few Northern Sydney attendees commented that they rarely get to see live bands nowadays, because their local venues have mainly D.J.s which they claim are less exciting....What can I say?..tell your local publican to look up our site: groovetemple" Says Ang. "and do something wholesome, like book a live act."

Yes the G.T. is live alright, and kicking!!

Groove Temple rocks the house.

Groove Temple hit the stage hard at the Shellharbour Workers Club on Saturday 7th February 2009 and found some eager party people ready to boogie in the venue. They helped celebrate numerous birthdays and of a course a huge hen's night. (The guys are happy because they've noticed there hasn't been a hen-free Shelly's show for Groove Temple gigs for many months now. Something's going on.)
"We also want to say hello to the 25th birthday party crew for Adam on the night. They were great fun to watch, although I'm sure some will go home with little memory of the night...that's if they made it home.. I saw two of them asleep on the footpath on Shellharbour Road on the way home. A nice little lie down!" said lead vocalist Ang.
Groove Temple next play the Ocean Beach Hotel at Shellharbour on Friday 20th February, then at Husky Pub on Saturday 21st February and will be looking forward to big nights.
The guys are also really busy working on a side project and may be seen busily scurrying around the streets of Wollongong in the next few weeks, although you'd better not blink or you'll miss them.
