It's baaaaaaack ...

The 2009 Community Cup is on this Sunday the 21st of June and promises to be a wonderland of rock, sport, comedy and good times.

The Community Cup is an Aussie Rules football game like no other. Pitting the sporting prowess of Melbourne radio stations Triple R and PBS (team-name "Megahertz") against a dangerous group of angst-ridden musicians known as the "Espy Rockdogs". The game sounds like entertainment enough - but the entertainment starts well before kick-off.

Enter stage-left; Cosmic Psychos, Kram, Doll Squad, Jordie Lane and the Scared Weird Little Guys.

Money raised on the day is going to Reclink, "a charitable organisation whose mission is to provide sporting, social and arts activities to enhance the lives of people experiencing disadvantage" (from the website).

There's heaps more info at the official site here. Entry is $5, bands start at 11am, kick-off is at 2:30pm.

There will also be a doco on channel 31 by Stratos Pavlis - this Thursday the 18th;


Here's a brilliant pic of Tim Rogers lining up his second goal in the last Community Cup - this is by Matt Carr and can be found on the official Community Cup flickr page here.

* please note public transport is encouraged as there is no parking at Elsternwick Park!
