Aall the way from Adelaide, we have rock outfit
Molly Rocket —

They channel the raw spirit of the underdressed, unapologetic heroes of the 1990s.

Since emerging in 2021, they’ve built a reputation for high-voltage live shows, infectious energy, and an uncompromising DIY ethos that’s turned heads across the country.

2025 marked a powerful return with comeback single “Breathing Lead,” reigniting their presence
in the Australian rock landscape. They followed it with “When He Walks Around” and the release
of their sophomore EP The Dogs Are Barking
- a fierce, emotionally charged collection that
showcases a band hitting their stride both sonically and lyrically.

Balancing sharp songwriting with a sense of unpredictability, Molly Rocket craft songs that feel
immediate, ambiguous, and gut-punching in equal measure.

With The Dogs Are Barking now out
in the world, the band continue to build momentum on the road, cementing their place as one of
Australia’s most compelling new rock acts

HEAVY AMBER ⚡️🏜MO a heavy psychedelic rock trio that brings the energy to the stage. Their sound is focused on harmonies with fuzzed-out guitars and a driving rhythm section having you trip on acid without taking it.
Influenced by the ethos of 70s prog-rock, they deliver a unique, orchestral approach to heavy music.

It’s the perfect destination for haircuts and Harleys.

We’re thrilled to finally have on the lineup!

After talking about it at so many of our previous shows, these legends have always supported The Showdown, even riding up from Melbourne to our Brisbane event.
Great blokes, killer music, and proper riders, Scarnon are the real deal. 🔥

Our favourite line from there blurb
"Notoriously known for their “Hellhound” wah pedal connected to an engine, Scarnon always stuns the crowds with their epic performances."

Come see this thing in action - Tickets available in our Bio

DICE – 5 Dice Game
(Lowest Score Wins)
Goal
End the game with the lowest possible score.

Gameplay
You play with 5 dice.

Each roll, you must bank at least 1 die.

You may bank as many additional dice as you choose, but you cannot un-bank dice once chosen.

Continue rolling the remaining un-banked dice until all 5 dice are banked.

Scoring
Dice show their face value except for “SD”, which counts as 0 points.

“SD” = Zero.

Perfect Score
5× “SD” = 0 points → a perfect score.

But there’s a twist…
The only roll that can beat 5× “SD” is:

5× “6”

This is a special “risk it to win it” rule:
Five 6s outrank a perfect zero, even though the numeric value would normally be higher.

*Pouch Included
